Wed thru sun karaoke starts at 9. I prefer going on Saturday when they have the computerized karaoke machine. The other nights they have the old-school disks where you have to find the numbers instead of being able to search.
I'm not much of a drinker, but they seem to have a pretty good selection.
The layout of the bar is ok, but not my favorite for karaoke layout, it's kinda tucked off in a corner, but it's not the worst I've seen.
The staff and the crowd have always been friendly and fun to be around when I've gone.
I'm giving "The REEF" 5 stars simply basing it on what it is. Â It's a dive bar and when I say dive bar I mean DIVE bar. Â It's tiny, classless, & tasteless, but It's fun, cheap, and always an adventure. Â If your looking for a fun little bar, look no further. Â Leave your judgment at home because your going to run into some strange folks, but just go with it and have fun!
Review Source:Went here expecting to have a strange time and that is exactly what we got! It's a dive bar that puts other dive bars to shame. It's tiny and everyone inside is a character. There is absolutely zero class and that's just the way I like it when looking for this type of place. I think they'd frown at you if you ordered a martini but they seem to stock a decent variety of liquor. Everyone was friendly and most even seemed to know each other so just don't be an asshole and enjoy the show!
Review Source:Over a year later and Sponge Reef is alive and well, despite the fact that their phone sometimes happens to be disconnected. They are also one of the only places in the area that values the time-honored tradition of karaoke. A number of places nearby keep switching days or have done away with it. The SR is reliable.
A group of us came for New Year's Eve and had a blast. It wasn't too crowded, the drinks were cheap, no cover, no dress code, we got to sing songs, we made some new friends and they gave us party favors and champagne!
This place is a cross between Long John Silvers and a truck stop. It's tiny and old with crappy furniture and some nonsense nautical/ocean decor. It is the most divey dive bar I have ever been in, and I think I have been in my share of dive bars. Luckily I did not have to use the restroom while I was there..I was afraid...but my equally fearful friend had to go and she said it was "not bad." Impressive!
That said...it is what it is. It's not pretentious in the least. You don't need to primp to go there. Heck, don't even take a shower (save it for when you get home...). Karaoke is always a hoot, whether you sing or just watch the tone-deaf belt out Kelly Clarkson. If you go in with low expectations and with friends who can have fun anywhere, it's certainly not the worst place to be, and it could even be a blast...
But don't say I didn't warn you.
Close your eyes and imagine a room about the size of most people's living room, maybe slightly larger. Â Along one of the longer walls, put a bar. Â On the other side of the room, put plastic patio tables and chairs. Â In the corner, put a karaoke machine, a small stand for a karaoke DJ, two mics, and two screens. Â Fill the room with weird, old people (one regular looks just like Blue in "Old School) and chunky broads in tight jeans who get smashed and butcher country songs.
Believe it or not, this dumpy and bizarre excuse for a karaoke bar can be a blast if you let go of your expectations. Â Why? Because no one gives a sh*t. Â Wanna sing "Islands in the Stream" in a duet with yourself completely off key and still have people clap for you? Â Wanna show up in your pajamas and a cowboy hat and not be looked at like you escaped from the looney bin? Go ahead. Â You can do whatever the eff you want at "The Reef" while getting smiz-ashed and karaoke-ing for pretty cheap. Â It's kind of nice not to care sometimes.
