The ONLY full-service Karaoke Venue in Center City Philadelphia

I am visited from out the country, what is an acceptable form of ID?
Your passport will be just fine.

Is there smoking inside the venue?
No smoking of any kind inside the venue including e-cigs and vaporizers. Smoking is permitted directly outside of Rec & Royal next to the smoking receptacles.

Champagne + Cake + Drunken Decisions = Cake Fights!

Fun in theory for the participants, but not fun for our staff that has to clean.

However, a license and credit card will be necessary to have the table sat.
