A great time . A family of 20 parents children their spouses and all my grand children . In a private room, we were able to eat sing fellowship freely. My grandchildren were allowed to play in the Private room without the glare of other customer. Food was good. Service was good not amazing just good. First visit so bar was set low. I would visit this establishment again!!! Something about this place still felt good!!!!. 3 hour room rental price was reasonable also. Will be reserving another room. Larger next time. Surprise Engagement party. My children all said it was one of "The best family nights ever". And because of this . HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place. read more

I've come to Duba with my girlfriend a couple of times now, and each time I've enjoyed my experience. The music they play, along with the drinks and food they serve, are consistently pretty solid. The atmosphere is definitely my favorite part. Overall Ratings Atmosphere: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Food: 4/5 Parking: Private Parking Lot Atmosphere: Probably one of my favorite restaurant/bar spots I've been to. The place is clean, inviting, and has a vibe that keeps you wanting to stay awhile. Not only do they offer happy hour drinks, but they also have happy hour food options. There's enough variety on the menu to make you want to come back for another visit. Service: The service is good. Staff are friendly and check on their guests frequently without being intrusive. What We Ordered: -(Drink) Soju -Korean Style Fried Chicken (my favorite on the menu) -Honey Butter Chips (It's good, but you do need to mix the butter and honey a bit, or at least wait until the honey cools slightly, otherwise it won't mix well, as we learned) -Bulgogi Beef Bao (Good) -Korean Style Ribs (A bit dry, but still tasty) Final Thoughts: I would absolutely go again. This is one of our favorite spots for a quick drink and bites. It's local to us and definitely a hidden gem. read more

Went here for my bday a few months ago. The service was great, prices are very reasonable and their wings are really good. I would highly recommend reserving a room if it's 5 or more ppl. The music is different, my group was very diverse and yet none of us ever heard anything that they played before. read more

Went to Duba with friends from college for karaoke and it was so fun! We came in at 7pm as a group of 6 and were quickly placed in a karaoke room. The adult capri suns were a fun highlight that all the alcohol consumers enjoyed. Like other reviewers have said, it gets toasty in the karaoke rooms, but there is a fan to aid with that. We also had some trouble with the microphones, but luckily the staff (& my partner) were able to troubleshoot the issue quickly. The room was $30/hour which we thought was pretty reasonable for the room size & song selection. I was disappointed in their lack of Korean song selection (given that they market themselves as a Korean karaoke bar), but that did not hinder our experience! read more

I've done karaoke here a few times. We rent a private room. Service is great, it's always a great time! My only complaint is the small rooms get HOT after a while. read more

I did not like vibe of the staff. They seem very worried that we are not going to pay. I don't like being handed a bill immediately after ordering a drink. Even after I handed them my card (which they held hostage until we cashed out) to start a tab for our group they still seemed very apprehensive. When I paid the tab the bartender asked me how was the service almost as though he knew we were annoyed. Maybe they had some bad experiences in the past but unfortunately that's not my problem. On the positive side the wings and drinks were good. However it still unlikely that I will return. read more

Service always top tier, atmosphere always fun, food always YESSSSSS! Today was a random visit. I just sat by the bar and ate icecream, lol. It was really goooood. However, I've also been here for dinner and other times for karaoke and have always enjoyed ! read more

DuBa Karaoke and Pub - Ice cream - Karaoke Near Me - Elkins Park, Pennsylvania

I like the vibe and the ambiance. Price was affordable too. The only things we complained about are that it was unbelievably, swelteringly, inexcusably HOT in the private room. I think we were in the Stella Artois room. We told them, they brought a fan but good lord we needed to GTFO. Made the experience less enjoyable. Also maybe some ppl won't care but the soundtracks don't have the artists singing along with you. Would be nice to have that option sometimes bc some of us wanted to have the background singers ! Overall, would go back bc it's the only place around LOL read more

Busy place. It's like the Friendlys of Korean food. Family style. We got seafood pancake & tofu bibimbap . It was ok. Also so many side dishes! read more

Went to DuBa for my 40TH Birthday and had a good time. We had the factory room which was $240, it included 4 appetizers and 2 entres and 3 hours of karaoke. We got their wings of course, egg rolls, dumplings and mozzarella sticks. The wings were really good and crispy. The rest of the food was regular, nothing special about it. There was a decent selection of music but it lacked in some areas as far as like Spanish music goes and some R&B. The room was spacious and had party lights. You could be attended in the room by hitting the call button. By the time we finished our bill was $650. What I did not like was you had to buy individual drinks, there are no bottles for purchase. read more

Huge Shoutout to my cousin for introducing me to this place! The food and ambiance is BOMB!!! She told me the wings were the best and they sure were. They are Korean Style Wings, which means they were very crispy and the sauce options were good as well. I'm not a huge spicy fan so I got the Honey Soy and It did not disappoint. In addition to the wings I also tired there dumplings and those were banging too! Omg and their Crab Rangoon had actual crab meat in It and It was STUFFED! Now this is not only a food spot, they have Karaoke rooms as well (Which I will be checking out the next time I come). I heard a few people singing their hearts out while I was there lol. Another cool thing about this place is the decorations in the ceilings, I thought that was dope feature. It's that one thing that makes there place unique. Oh yea they also have drinks that glow In the dark! My only critique will be when It comes to the "Honey Butter Chips" you have to request It "Well Done" so that they are fried properly. read more

I came here for karaoke, and my friend told me that their food here was really good. They were so right! We ordered during the Happy Hour Specials: Steamed Dumplings -- (9/10) So yummy! Plump and tender. Spicy Rice Cakes -- (10/10) This was a very gochujang-y ddeokbbeokki, it tasted very homemade! We absolutely downed it amongst the three of us. The rice cakes were very soft, but the sauce was really, SO GOOD. I loved the addition of the baked cheese and the onions and fishcakes in the sauce. It kinda reminded me of a baked lasagna. Not that spicy either for those who can't handle heat. (I will now be trying to recreate this at home) Soy Garlic and Honey Garlic Wings (10/10) -- Oh my gosh! The crunch on these is UNREAL, and they were cooked perfectly on the inside. I absolutely loved the Honey Garlic wings. My Final Thoughts Afterwards, we went for karaoke for an hour. I thought the food was nicely priced for Happy Hour, but I did think karaoke was a bit expensive ($40/hour). Overall, I would definitely come again! Thank you for having me, Duba! read more

I went to Duba for a birthday party. It was so fun! The vibe was very cool. I loved the food and drink options. I had an adult Capri sun which was not only so fun but tasted great too. We tried the soy shrimp and the Korean chicken wings in two flavors. The wings were unreal. So crispy and the sticky honey sauces were perfect. The dressing on the salad that came with the shrimp was so well balanced *chefs kiss*. The karaoke room was awesome. I loved the lights and the mics were clear. It was too loud and you could still talk to people at your table. A very fun evening out!! read more

We went there for the second part of my birthday and going away party after our dinner from Dubu. This place doesn't have some of the songs on the library in the system. Some of the people in our groups waited a long time for their song only to be found out that if the songs aren't in the system they simply get skipped. I think you shouldn't put songs in the library if you don't have it on the system. Someone even suggested that we mind as well use YouTube karaoke, and I really thought that would've worked out best. Lastly, the power went out three times for the two hours we stayed there. They gave us the extra 15 mins at the end, but we were over it by the time the power went out the second time. Fun place, but need some work. read more

I frequently visit this place when I travel to Philly. Conveniently located near the large H-Mart area, Duba is located next to Dubu and other many different Korean restaurants. Because this place opens late, this is one of few places I can get a decent meal and some cook liquors while finishing late after work. The area is nice, as it has a hip setting with modern lightning and great decorations. The place is actually quite huge as there are multiple karaoke rooms, a bar, which itself is large, and many sit down tables for your group. Food wise, they are good. Just for any food less than $20, a food comes in a large portion, with great smell, watery taste, and all Korean fusion spices. You can ask for a rise bowl if you are super hungry. For drinks, this place has everything. Beers, cocktails, wines, and even sojus. While the bar is maybe not full of wine and beer selections, the selection is numerous, and the bartenders do know how to make cocktails here. Servers here are really kind and great. So, 10 out of 10 for the service. If you get bored, hit the karaoke room, which is like $20 per hour -- not bad at all. So, yeah, Duba is a great place to get some food and drinks while still having fun with your friends. read more

I came here with a bunch of friends for karaoke night for my birthday, and I wasn't impressed. The room pricing is much higher than what you would pay in Chinatown - one room charged $100 an hour and there's no food or drink minimum spending special! There are karaoke bars in NYC that wouldn't even charge that much. The location is next door to Cafe Clover and DuBu, you show your I.D. and you are led downstairs to the basement. You will most likely lose cell phone reception, which is incredibly inconvenient, but they offer a WiFi code for you to use if needed. There is a main bar with free popcorn and seating areas, and I rented one of the smaller rooms for the evening. I am not sure what was happening with their air conditioner, but it was SO hot in the room! All of us were sweating, and when we requested that they change the temperature, we were told that there was nothing they could do. Also, there seemed to be less variety of songs than I'm used to, and there were barely any new releases. The only redeeming factor was the food - we ordered drunken noodles, BBQ soy chicken wings, tater tots, cheese corn, and spicy shrimp. No complaints there - everything was satisfying and spicy. However, given the price point, the lack of song choices, and the malfunctioning A.C., it is not my first choice for karaoke. read more

My friend and I like coming here when we are craving korean BBQ wings but also want good drinks and other food too. We could easily go to the hmart BBQ but why when you can come here, get beer/mixed drinks, the same wings at the same price and a ton of other foods?! The tables are rarely filled when we have been here since most come for the karoake rooms or sit right at the bar so it's comfy and not too crowded, which we love. Service is phenomenal! The waitstaff are very friendly and helpful, I tell them I love the kim chi from Dubu (the restaurant upstairs) and they offer to get me some from there! Love ! Lol. The chips are amazing! Drinks are good! Definitely give this place a try! read more

Went here for my birthday last year... everyone knows I'm a singer and I had a ball here! Will probably be returning this year!

The food there is delicious and been here multiple times. Place is always busy if you're going around dinner time. Sevice for the most part was good with the exceptions the sever there constantly comes every couple minutes to asked you if you were ready to ordered. Their side dishes are great and the fried fish is a plus. I do wish they have a bigger selection of menu items. read more

Best karaoke you will find near Cheltenham and Philly area. The karaoke machine is always updated with the latest songs. I've only tried the korean karaoke system, but you can't get this kind of karaoke quality in other places. The food here is also amazing. I usually like to get the fish cake soup and the fried chickens. The bbq chicken is here is sooooo good. I highly recommend the bbq chicken. ~ ~ read more

We were waiting for a table at Dubu, and one of the hosts invited us to head downstairs to wait at Duba. It had only opened recently, so we had heard about it but hadn't visited yet, so we decided to check it out. I have to say that the staff were very friendly; a few of them welcomed us there and asked if we wanted a table. We were just there waiting, though, so we just sat at the bar, which wasn't too busy at the time. It is nice that they have a long happy hour, so we were able to get those prices. My wife and I both got drinks for pretty reasonable prices thanks to happy hour, and were able to bring our drinks up when our table at Dubu was ready a few minutes later. We didn't really hang out long here this time, but I'm sure if we do come back with friends for karaoke or to hang out, we'll have a great time! read more

Usually a good time here. Understandable it's a holiday. We called and they told us kitchen was open till 11:45. We were gonna place a to-go order. Decided to stop in to place a food order while we got drinks. One server told us the guy in the back was cleaning up. Another server told us the guy in the back had already left. Hopeful next time we'll be able to enjoy full service. Transparency is important with customers. Much rather have understanding due to slow business or a holiday then rush out of the way for nothing. Better luck next time. read more

As an avid noraebang/karaoke-goer when I lived in Korea, I was admittedly worried that the experience here would not match up. However, I was pleasantly surprised as their rooms were clean and equipped with the basics like mood lighting, tambourine, and even complimentary water bottles. The Korea/English/multilingual karaoke system was exactly like those in Korea and they say they update their songs monthly (and that's true as far as I can tell!). We were a group of 6 and we were in the smallest room (for up to 8 people) and the space was perfect for us. 8 people might be a bit cramped. The pricing is $40 an hour (for the 8-person room) plus tax and tip which came down to about $17 per person for two hours which is not bad in my opinion! The only con is that the room got really warm, perhaps due to the AC not working super well and perhaps because we danced too much in there haha. While I didn't eat the food, the bar/restaurant area also looked really awesome, with great surround sound and food options, albeit on the pricey side. If I didn't live so far away, then I would definitely frequent this place a lot more! read more

This underground keg light fixture karaoke bar with a help yoself popcorn machine issa vibeee~ I booked a karaoke room that was more local to celebrate a close friend's birthday post-dinner at Dubu. We booked a room for 9 people and the hourly rate was $40, which is pricier than the city since no food or beverages go towards that rate. The karaoke system isn't user friendly, but manageable. You can't really change the volume of the mic and there's no voice option; ya know...in case you forget how the song goes... XD Regardless, it was a great time. We ordered some fries, honey garlic wings, and cheesy corn. Yes, we did just eat dinner, but we're fatties so... *insert girl with hand up emoji here* The wings were surprisingly delicious and honestly, BETTER than Soho's. The fries were crinkle fries! One of my favorite cuts! It still had that "frozen" aftertaste, but it was decent. The cheesy corn had some peppers/jalapeño flavor, which I really enjoyed. Overall, a great experience. I would definitely go back for the food and the atmosphere. I'm glad it's local to where I live. *insert pray hand emoji here* ;) read more

Wow, where do I begin? The place was so phenomenal. My sister and wife planned a 35th birthday party for me. I've always wanted to do karaoke. I saw 500 days of summer with my wife several years back and was motivated by the character of Tom Hansen, but anyway back to the review. We had about 25 people here for the 30 people max (Factory Room) and it was the best party I've ever been to and my wife/friends/family will definitely vouch. The food was really good (fried dumplings, drunken noodles and this corn cheese thing). The draft beer was real good too (Blue Moon is my favorite). I sang Dammit by Blink 182 to start off. I sang Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR with my sister, Country Roads by John Denver with my brother and Lost than Loving Feeling by the Righteous Brothers (from Top Gun) with my wife. So many others sang too and we all were laughing and cheering. I could of not asked for a better birthday and we should be back soon for some more karaoke and fun! read more

My only experience came from ordering their wings at Dubu. We had the garlic soysauce wings and they were served hot and succulent to the flagship restaurant.
