KARAOKE RESERVATION

PRIMARY HOST/MINIMUM AGE REQUIREMENT: Each reservation must have a designated Primary Host responsible for payment, group conduct, and compliance with all policies. The Primary Host must be at least 18 years old, or 21 if alcohol is being consumed. A valid physical ID is required at check-in. Photocopies or digital copies will not be accepted.*

SUBSTITUTING GUESTS OR ADDITIONAL UNPAID GUESTS: Substituting or sneaking in additional guests is strictly prohibited. All guests must check in at the front before joining your party. We reserve the right to charge for any additional guests. Violations may result in a $100 fee or immediate removal of all guests without refund.*

DECORATIONS: All decorations require prior management approval. Minimal décor (e.g., balloons) is allowed, but nothing may be taped or attached to walls. Confetti, glitter, feathers, beads, or similar messy items are not permitted. Candles, sparklers, or open flames require prior approval and, if allowed, must be lit only by staff.*

PROPERTY DAMAGE POLICY: We reserve the right to charge the credit card on file or deduct from any cash held for any damage or theft of property. For accountability, our staff inspects the room before and after every session.*

CONDUCT POLICY: To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all, Backroom Karaoke reserves the right to refuse service to anyone displaying disruptive, rowdy, or inappropriate behavior. Overly intoxicated guests may be asked to leave along with their party. A $150 fee will be charged for vomiting or excessive cleaning. No refunds will be given for policy violations.*

DRINK: Outside drinks are not permitted except bottled water. A $50 fee will apply if found. BYOB is allowed per N.J.S.A. 2C:33-27. Hard liquor (30%+ alcohol), premixed drinks, and Jello shots are strictly prohibited. 21+ to drink alcohol. Anyone under 18 may not consume alcohol. If underage drinking occurs, the entire group will be asked to leave with no refund. Guests must bring their own plates, utensils, cups, ice, and coolers. We offer non-alcoholic drinks for sale.*

FOOD: Outside foods are not permitted, except for birthday desserts. A $50 fee will apply if found. Please supply your own plates, utensils, napkins, cups, ice and coolers for any permitted food and drink items. We do offer light finger foods for sale. We can also cater food. Please see our karaoke catering menu.*

SONG CATALOG:​ Our catalog features over 100,000 songs, with new titles added weekly by our provider. While we strive to offer a wide selection, we cannot guarantee the availability of specific songs. You may browse the current catalog online prior to your visit. Please note that no refunds will be issued based on song availability.*

NON-REFUNDABLE BOOKING FEE: A $50 booking fee (plus tax) is required to hold the reservation and will be applied as a credit toward the cost of the room rental. This booking fee is non-refundable under any circumstance, unless Backroom Karaoke cancels the booking or the cancellation qualifies under the cancellation policy outlined below. Walk-ins are exempt from the booking fee.*

By submitting an RSVP, you acknowledge and agree that the booking fee is strictly non-refundable under any circumstances, including illness, accidents, or other unforeseen events. This policy is in place to ensure fairness in booking and to prevent people from reserving dates without the intention of honoring them. Kindly understand that we have only one room available, and by confirming your RSVP, we are reserving it exclusively for your group, which may result in lost opportunities.*

CANCELLATIONS: You may cancel your reservation within 1 week of the date your reservation was confirmed and receive a refund of your $50 booking fee, minus a 5% processing fee if paid by credit card. After the 1 week period, you may still cancel; however, the $50 booking fee is strictly non-refundable for any reason.*

RESCHEDULING: You may reschedule your reservation date—subject to availability—within 2 weeks of the date your reservation was confirmed at no additional cost. After this 2-week period, any request to reschedule will be treated as a cancellation and new reservation, and will require an additional non-refundable $50 booking fee, which will be applied as a credit toward your room rental fees.*

LATE ARRIVAL: We allow a 30-minute grace period for late arrivals. After that, the session time will be reduced, and you’ll still be charged for the balance of your reserved duration. In no case will the charge be based on less than 1 hour duration. For example, if you reserve 2 hours and arrive 1 hour late, you'll be charged for 1.5 hours. This policy ensures fair scheduling and prevents unused time from blocking availability for others.*

CREDIT CARD OR CASH HELD FOR INCIDENTALS: On the day of your reservation, we require a physical credit card or $150 cash to be held until the end of your session. This will be returned after a staff inspection confirms no damage, theft, or issues. By booking, you agree to this policy. If you decline to provide the required deposit, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation.*

RELEASE OF LIABILITY: Backroom Karaoke is not responsible for any injuries sustained by guests, damage to personal property, or loss/theft of personal items. The person making the reservation agrees to inform all participants of these policies and accepts full responsibility for any violations.*
