Inamo's Games and Karaoke Room is a private-hire space inside the inamo restaurant on Wardour Street in Soho. You book the whole room for your group, and it pairs an interactive sushi-and-pan-Asian buffet with a karaoke machine that taps over 90,000 songs, double wall projections topping 150 inches, 150-plus console games and a retro arcade table loaded with 2,000-plus titles. It suits birthdays, work socials and any group that wants singing and gaming in one private space rather than a public bar.

The single most useful thing to know: this is a bookable private room with a minimum spend, not a walk-in pay-per-song karaoke bar. Sessions run 2 hours 45 minutes and you need to plan a group around the food and drinks packages.

The karaoke setup

The karaoke runs off a machine with access to more than 90,000 songs, projected across double wall screens that span over 150 inches, so the lyrics are hard to miss. It sits in the same private room as the gaming kit, which means your group can swap between singing and a round of Mario Kart, FIFA or Tekken without leaving the space. There are over 150 games across PS4, Wii, Chromecast and Apple TV, plus an arcade table holding more than 2,000 retro titles. It is built for a group taking over the room together rather than queuing for a slot.

Good to know

This is a private-hire room, so you book it for your group rather than turning up to pay per song. Sessions last 2 hours 45 minutes and carry a minimum spend, roughly £250 midweek and £750 at the weekend. The buffet starts at £260 for 10 guests and £26 for each extra person, with drinks packages on top, and there is a £10 per person booking deposit plus a £100 refundable damage deposit. The room seats about 20 for dining or holds around 30 standing. Book on 020 7484 0500 or events@inamo-restaurant.com.
