Sing for your supper: London’s best Karaoke booths

After Cabinet members recently took to the microphone for a karaoke evening, is Westminster’s new favourite hobby on course for a winter comeback? With summer days of al fresco cocktails and late-night picnics in the park almost behind us, a let-your-hair-down evening belting out karaoke could be just the answer.

Here’s our guide to London’s best booths.

Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes

Cosy rooms with vinyl records covering every inch of wall, studded leather sofas and low-lit kitschy lamps create a perfectly funky vibe for an evening of crooning along to Otis Reading and Stevie Wonder.

This retro bowling alley, which is a short hop from Russell Square station, has eight lanes and the only vintage above lane ball return outside of America. There is also an American bar and diner with a wide selection of craft beers.

Its five private karaoke rooms fit from 8 to 25 people and give you access to more than 30,000 songs.
