Do you have a phone number for M.J'S PLEASE?
deansgirl 06-08-2007, 04:55 PM Great night out, great place. Bar staff were so friendly and up for a laugh. The Devils ice - WOW, its worth a visit just for that! The singing was none stop all night with everyone really getting into the spirit of it.
Fab friendly service and you felt really looked after by the owner at the end of the night - he called for taxi's for us all and waited outside with us, making sure we all got a taxi OK.
I'll be back every week - go on give it a try!

It's not rock at all. I play chart and disco in between songs but there's very little time between singers and it's virtually non stop singing!

Hard to fault this place really so far, staff friendly, good selection of drinks, fair prices, And Splodge was a dream come true, so helpfull, and even when I was out of my depth with some songs she always made me feel ok.
I'll be back !! (if they'll have me)

Attercliffe Road (the old Manhatten bar).
I am curious .. Does anyone know if this place is easy to get to without a car e.g. if out drinking ? Is it on a bus route from centre of town or would a taxi driver find it? is it far out (distance wise) ?

Hi Patrick
The only buses I know of are the 52 and the 6 (Darnall), the 52 goes onto Staniforth rd, get off on the first stop and walk back round the corner and its just past La Chambre, or just tell the taxi its between La Chambre and the Dancing Dollar on Attercliffe rd
If you put your requests in now, I'll check whether we've got it! :)
scottwoodbur 02-09-2007, 01:14 PM bout £5 tops from town centre in taxi
Ghostrider 02-09-2007, 01:17 PM And its only a few minutes walk from a tramstop....
absynthfairy 03-09-2007, 09:21 PM Well I finally gave this place a go and it has got my karaoke seal of approval...nice atmosphere...great sound system and a good choice of songs...
Was made to feel very welcome by gypsytom and had a good old sing song...even had to sing requests!
Devils ice was good too!
I shall return...when the shock of the new term wears off....:)
gypsytom 04-09-2007, 10:18 AM Hello Absynthfairy, Im really glad that you enjoyed your night and glad that i could make you feel welcome even when when i wasn't feeling my best!!
You should have seen the bar on saturday night the whole world descended upon us it was amazing and the goldfish bowls of cocktails were flowing!! I however was in bed Hmmm Never mind i shall soon be draining the the pumps once again and singing my heart out!!
deansgirl 09-09-2007, 05:52 PM Another fab night last night. Atmosphere was fantastic. Non stop singing, fishbowl cocktails, devils ice - all were flowing. :thumbsup:
I've took some photo's of the singers and plan to put them on MJ's website shortly. Planning on this becoming a regular thing, so if you come down to MJ's for a sing song, or just to have a drink and listen, ask for your photo taking and then look out for yourself a few days later on the website.

RedRocker 10-09-2007, 03:02 PM Join us this week @ MJ's for more classic Karaoke. Buffy & Oz host Thursday nite, Buffy will be there on Friday and then Martin makes sure you have a great Saturday nite. Oz is back on Sunday to finish off the weekend. So if you have never tried MJ's yet, WHY NOT???? Over 16,000 songs to choose from, as well as the now famous Devil's Ice!!! See you there! :hihi: :hihi:
Tyranna 11-09-2007, 01:04 PM I'm itching to get down there in October or perhaps even sooner during a weekend, as I work night shifts weekdays until the end of the month and can't go out much!
deansgirl 12-09-2007, 02:50 PM You'll love it Tyranna! Its a fantastic atmosphere in there. Its family run and usually all the family are there pitching in, having a sing a long or getting there groove on, on the dance floor! Let us know when you are coming down and we'll say hello!
