Profile

No other karaoke bar exerts the magnetic pull on both hardcore Asian mic fiends and downtown hip kids that Winnie's does. Here you'll witness not just mangled "Endless Love"s but a bracing dose of Mandarin pop songs favored by the local clientele, as well as by Winnie herself, who often shows up to survey the booze-drenched scene. The staff quickly makes you feel like family too, offering shots of "Hawaiian Punch"—a lethal concoction that will have you passed out in one of the oversized red booths in no time. You won't even notice the convicts being led in shackles into the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse next door.
