    I have not been here I was thinking about coming to sing being that I'm a really good DJ and have a great personality I have a great karaoke system and I get paid to set up aand get tips but either way I have never been rude to customers and never not let anyone sit out because they don't tip they sign up and they sing as well as anyone else in order not skipping them also sounds as if y'all are giving good karaoke DJ's a bad rap over y'all allow such a horrible DJ to be rude to customers

    Super fun place ! Sing your heart out in Broadway! Thousands of songs, trust me they have that one song you think they won’t . Super friendly staff and great drinks. Pretty common price is $12 for mixed drink at any bar on Broadway. You never know who will show up to sing with ya…. Bar connects to Tequila Cowboy next door.

    Don’t go here unless you want a DJ that tells you what you can and can’t sing. The DJ literally ruined the experience because I chose a song that he didn’t want to hear. The bar is in the heart of Nashville, but wouldn’t allow me to sing highway 20 ride because it wasn’t “his vibe” he literally doesn’t honor or understand country roots AT ALL.

    The “DJ” is mentally unstable and needs help. Way better karaoke bars in Nashville. I would give a zero star if it was an option.

    FUN! Put in your request to sing and get ready to be a part of the Nashville music scene! 😀. Good times with friends....have a drink n don't be shy! We went mid-week and got right on stage. Weekends though, we heard it can be a long wait (3hours?!?)

    Very fun! Good sound, unlimited choice of songs BUT get there early cause it gets busy and the wait to get on the mic can get looong.

    Love karaoke, pretty good at it. But my wheel house is slower songs (Let Her Cry, Anymore, I Told You So) and they said I couldn’t do “ballads” after 8 pm then let someone sing Blurry from Puddle of Mudd and Wherever You Will Go by well The Calling. How are those any different from Let Her Cry? Oh well, I’ll go buy $8 beers somewhere else. ✌🏼

    To start… i never leave a review, especially a negative one. I’ve been to a lot of karaoke bars, but this is not the place you really want to go to do true karaoke. First off people there aren’t really there for the karaoke, and pay no attention to the evening. Secondly, the prices on alcohol, are a bit pricy … 8$ dollars for a Bud Light. But that’s OK, I get it where in Nashville. And that’s not why I’m upset or leaving this review. I walked away to go to the bathroom, and by the time I got back the bartender had already throwing away my drink, which was barely even drank out of. I asked him I threw it away, and he said because you left it unattended (although I was sitting with a group of people). He was incredibly rude, and he said “fine, I’ll get you another. He brought me another can open it up and say that’ll be another” that will be another eight dollars”. it was incredibly rude. There are so many better karaoke bars in Nashville, don’t waste your time at this one.

    Rachel canter was AMAZING! I honestly don’t know how this bar survives without her. She was the only bartender until 6 and literally no one had to wait for a drink. This girl need a raise! This place wouldn’t be the same without her! She needs a raise!

    I recently visited a karaoke bar called Wanna B's and had a great time. The ambiance was lively and upbeat, with plenty of patrons chatting, laughing, and singing to their favorite tunes. While some of the singers may have been novices and their performances not always pitch-perfect, it added to the authentic and fun vibe of the place. Everyone was there to have a good time, and that's exactly what we did. The bartenders were attentive and friendly, and the bar had a good selection of drinks available. Whether you wanted to belt out a classic rock anthem or just chill with some friends, there was something for everyone. If you're looking for a spot to sing your heart out and enjoy some good company, I would definitely recommend checking out Wanna B's Karaoke bar. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you're sure to have a memorable time.

    I love this place so so much! I had so much fun at the mic, I would definitely recommend this bar to anyone I come across! Especially if you love music

    We had planned on leaving before midnight when we were on the Tequila Cowboy side then had Johnny as a bartender when we came to the Wannabe’s side and ended up staying until close. Johnny’s service truly made a difference in our experience and made us want to stay longer than planned. He is beyond excellent at his job and made an amazing atmosphere. We would come back anytime he is the server! Great time!!

    Bouncer didn’t know what capacity meant or if they even had a line and the bar looked empty… every other bar at least had a line he didn’t know left from right.

    This place is a great spot. The ppl are great but the staff, well, they're a little iffy🤷🏿‍♂️I was thrown out and arrested over the weekend because the staff accused my service dog of using the restroom on the floor. "TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE"!! All of this after being escorted in personally by the owner a few days earlier because of staff harassing me and my service animal at the door. I thought we had had an understanding but I guess not. I only had a week in jail and almost $1,000 taken out from my bank account that I barely had. Maybe the owner drop those charges for me. I don't know🤷🏿‍♂️but we will see. AKA: Suave and Sylvia

    My wife and I were in Nashville for a comedy tour (Rebels with a Cause), but we had tickets to the late show. We had to kill some time around the Ryman Auditorium, so we went here. Best fun my wife had had in years! She sang, we danced, we drank, and we rocked the night! Will be going back!

    The dj is mean. I sang with a group at 11:30ish and when I asked when my solo song was when I signed up at 10:30 he said 26 songs from 11:30 and I didn’t get to sing until 1:15. He never once said it would be 26 songs after a group of four people when someone else signed up the group. It was a ridiculous wait and he had been rude to other people as well.

  • 5/5 Lauren A. 2 years ago on Google
    A very fun atmosphere, had a great time. Was very hard to get drinks with 1 bartender for the entire place but other than that, would go back. I mean, who doesn't love karaoke??

  • 2/5 Emily W. 2 years ago on Google
    We have been here for the last 5 years and come here just to see the bartender Tyler sing and this is the first time we have not been able to see him sing and it’s very very very disappointing!!!! We love to see him perform and sing behind the bar. We hope to see it come back soon!

    Loves this spot! Everyone having a great time and cheering each other on! This is my 1st trip to Nashville. The love in this city is beyond compare. WannaB’s is no exception. Everyone is there with a common mindset-love and friendship. Love WannaB’s! I will return my next trip!!
