Nothing against video games that let gamers live out their rockstar fantasies, but it's about time KU students had a means of finding their inner-musician while still being social. Encore Café, 1007 Massachusetts St., has finally made that possible.
Encore Café, 1007 Massachusetts St.
The New Asian cuisine restaurant opened in October 2007, but it just recently unveiled private karaoke rooms. The manager of Encore Café, Wanna Zhao, is a KU junior who has lived in China and New York. Wanna says she opened Encore Café with the hope of bringing the New York Asian cuisine experience to Lawrence.
And a big part of that experience, Wanna says, is karaoke.
Encore Café has three small rooms that fit up to 10 people, and two rooms that can accommodate 20 people. Reserving one of the rooms costs $35 per hour, or you can just order a minimum $35 worth of food and drink, and the room is yours.
Encore Café is open until 2 a.m. and welcomes customers to stay as long as they want whether they are eating, drinking, singing or just lounging.
