The Sound Factory

Love it. I go most Thursdays because of the LGBTQ bingo. You win a free drink if you win. Everyone is accepted and welcomed. I always have fun. Thanks for reading my review, tell them I sent you and have FUN!

Amazing music ! Amazing people! I performed a dance and everyone loved it. Great crowd.JBunny is an amazing host

Friendly service as soon as we stepped in the door.Bartenders were very friendly and quick to get our drink orders. No food so cant rate that.There are like 7 pool tables to play on.We didnt have any issues at all while visiting, enjoyed the few hours we spent here and will definitely visit again if we ever travel through Columbus again.

Great atmosphere for club night, but also doubles as a great professional environment for corporate events. Its hard to find versatility like that anywhere around!

LoveIt will go back had lots of pool tables it was awesome the bands was rocking .got to see seckond chaynce

First off I am from Georgia but now I live in Texas. I was visiting family like a normally do and I have come to this place B4 to sing a few songs of karaoke. So here I am like I said visiting and was looking for a spot to sing a few songs. Oh did I mention I am a karaoke DJ in Texas and I was shocked when the door man told me $10.00 to get in to sing karaoke. Never in as long as I have been a DJ/KJ have I heard of this. I host karaoke Thursday night in Texas and the place be packed as a matter of fact none of the karaoke places charge. And this place charge $10. 😲

Always have a great time when I go here. The staff is friendly and the drinks are good. If you dont like cigarette smoke, then this might not be the place for you. There are 2 sides to the club. Both sides have a bar and pool tables. One side has karaoke and the other has a large dance floor with a great dj! The dj plays a mix of every type of music. Get ready to dance!

Me and my friends have been here a few times and most times were primarily okay. however, most recently, the DJ made one of my friends uncomfortable and made homophobic remarks towards them. so if you’re looking for a safe and inclusive space pursue somewhere else.

Great place for first time. But I got charged $44 for 4 beers and a $10 cash out because their ATM wasnt working. Plus I was told that beers were $5 a piece. I paid $20 just to enter with a different card and paid for drinks with another. I was originally charged $24 but then they updated to $44. Where did the extra $14 come from?

Pretty weird environment. I went with a group of friends and none of us desired to go back. We made the best of it, but it felt like a wanna be club. Some folks offered to sell us various things with no care from the staff. Not our type of environment. If youre looking for a standard club or karaoke place, then I wouldnt recommend going here.

We went for the karaoke on a holiday weekend back home. They dont have a great selection of beers but they do have a full bar and the karaoke setup is well run. They also have pool tables and an adjacent night club that opens a little later. Overall a good time.

This is a awesome place to come hang out out. They had a comedy show the night I came. We went to the pool room area. I suck at pool its karaoke in the same area and I did a karaoke song. The drinks are good and strong. The owner is awesome and full of life. The spicy chicken sandwich was very good. During this covid19 time they were safe. The comedy show was awesome. Looks like they may even have a open mic night for comics. This is a great spot in Columbus. Upsale. Great prices and fun. You wont be disappointed.

Ordered a patron/pineapple cocktail. I was charged $28.00 . The bartender said he had to charge us for the pineapple juice. And he had no other way of ringing it up … the receipt said 2 patron, 2 bud light . I refused to pay for it because I felt it was extremely overpriced, plus I did not ask for two bud lights. The female server then comes over and says there is no way to refund this transaction. Then when I respond, she went full blown Karen mode …calls me a “nigger” and starts asking the patrons in the bar to help her kick me out. Never again…the place smelled like fish soup, and cigarettes. The bartenders are in their 50’s… its just a weird vibe

This place has awesome drinks, specials, and a little bit of something to suit anyones needs. Dont like the hype club atmosphere? Theres another room for karaoke and pool where smoking is allowed as well. Both rooms have different vibes that dont conflict with each other. Youll never have a night that you cant find something interesting!

Good selection of beers. The karaoke side also has pool tables and ashtrays for smoking. Dont trust the karaoke list, as you can sing pretty much anything as long as its in the computer. Fun time overall!

Very nice atmosphere, friendly staff, and definitely what I needed after unwinding from a long week we really enjoyed how laid back it was! I went on a Thursday and the drinks omg they were very good and reasonably priced!

This was my first time visiting. Im new to the area.. The young lady at the door was really friendly! I enjoyed getting out and listening to some music. Even though noone interacted with me, a stranger. Noone but 95.3 own Kedra Nicole! She was such a lovely lively people person. She was the only one who put a smile on my face and made me laugh. Thank you! She really made it worth getting out. Thanks😊 again...

Have visited the Sound Factory several times to include & since the grand opening and I must say it is an great addition to Columbus. Love the atmosphere, the staff has been awesome. I must give a big shout out to Leah, as she is top notch. I had several questions concerning the VIP areas which she took the time to explain to me in detail. Leah is awesome at what she does and I enjoy seeing her smiling face when enjoying a night out. Leah has been there each time I have visited, I admire her drive & ambition, I can tell she takes great pride in making the club a success. Great place which I will be frequenting often & bring my friends.

Great vibe and ambiance! Hookah’s need a little help! Staff are courteous and friendly ! Location great for a secluded spot! Two sides gives you a little bit of everything to do! Pool karaoke, dancing and if you dare cages!!

The owner Angie looks out for her staff and employees. Safety is her top priority. Themed events, great deals, and plenty of new upgrades. New VIP section, hookah bar, dance floor. If you head to the other side they have pool tables, slot machines, karokee and its more low key on that side if you are not,into the clubbing scene. They keep that place clean. The bouncer are great guys and the bartenders are easy to talk to.

It was alright until one of the DJs on the side with the pole told my male friend to get off of the pole because no men are allowed on them and also called him fat on the mic loud ash so yeah i won’t be coming back

It would have gotten 5 stars if the guy running the karaoke went in sequence of the sign-in sheet. I was disappointed because I brought a few friends over and they can sing well! Dont get me wrong, the guy in charge of the karaoke is an entertainer and has a good voice, but he did not have integrity. If you wanna get your turn to sing, you gotta tip him as youre going up to sign in and you gotta make sure he sees it.

I myself am a fan of small crowds and great atmosphere. Its been years since I had such an enjoyable time.Several pool tables and a dart board.Owners is an excellent karaoke singer!

Love the sound factory and go there a lot. The only reason I didn’t rate 5 stars is because of lately there is some kid there that has taken over the karaoke and feels the need to sing every song. If someone else sings he grabs the other microphone and starts singing with them. No one wants to hear the same person sing every song alnite. It’s gotten old. Other than that, I think Roonie and his gang are awesome. Just wish someone would tell the one guy that everyone didn’t come to hear him, sing every song. It’s NOT all about him. It’s become annoying…I’m sure Roonie will fix it…..Thanks!!!!

Great set up for live shows!! From the minute we pulled up they made us feel like VIPs. The promoter Rooney comped our table which was front row center. Great service and meet n greet with Stak for about 15 minutes. Made several pics with him. Overall I would not Change anything except he did not do Strangest dreams. The sound factory believes in Customer Service at a time most places suck at it!!!

They have great drink prices. The staff is pretty cool too. On Thursday nights the have a live version of Truth or Dare... its risque LOL. But really a lot of fun and after that is Karaoke. Definately a place I will visit again.

The atmosphere was pleasant! The Jell-O shots lady was AWESOME and the hookah area was cozy. Venturing over to the Karaoke side was laid back. We will be returning....

This place is really cool, collected. Is not really out of place or too rowdy or the stereotypical Club environment. Theres pool theres karaoke there stands for two bars at least.they always have theme days like Truth or Dare live for Halloween they did a costume contest where they gave away thousands of dollars in prizes and things like that. Theres always something to do at the sound Factory I do recommend.

I was pleasantly surprised. Lots of space and plenty of seating arrangements. Plus it features areas for all sorts of people whether you wanna get on the dance floor, or just play some pool.

I really enjoyed coming here to watch the drag bingo! The drinks were good and cheap and it wasnt too packed :) This is a great place to support local queens and play pool.

7/23/2021: not impressed with the young (kids club) crowd, music or place.. we left!If you are 30s and up and looking for the grown and sophisticated crowd... well, this may not be your location. On July 23, 2021, at 12:30 am... it was not a good experience!!

First time here but it was a lot of fun.

The cigarette smoke was too thick and strong to really enjoy the experience. If you can tolerate secondhand smoke for hours it looks like a fun place, but that ruined the place for me and I left shortly after arriving.

Great atmosphere. The only downfall of this bar is being required to pay the cover for the attached club. Sometimes I just want to have a beer amd shoot some pool, so paying for the club cover really grinds my gears.

Great atmosphere but Ive never seen more than 20 people there at once and Im pretty sure the majority of the crowd at the back bar is homeless. Nothing wrong with them but not the place to take a date.

This place is a hidden gem. We went only to shoot pool, to find out a club is on the opposite side with a very nice size dance floor, friendly staff. They have a VIP area and hookah area. They also do karaoke.

It was WONDERFUL! This split nightclub has a bar, dj, dancefloor, and flashing lights on one side that is NO SMOKING (awesome because I dont like cig smoke) and the other is a bar, with pool tables, a dj, karaoke, and ashtrays for smokers. I love this club!❤

Just a little hole in the wall bar tiny are they call there seating its was so crowded and there was only about 20 people in the entire place on a Friday night. I couldnt imagine what it would be like if there was more people in the building it would be unbelievably uncomfortable to even stand.

Drinks were watered down but the DJ was awesome and his energy made up for the horrible bartender

Karaoke was a blast, crowd was super diverse and super supportive. Drinks were decent in taste and price but they dont serve any food

I recently moved here from RI and been trying to find a great place to hang out and i came across here one night i deff found it here great music great staff to enjoy my nights when i feel like getting out you have pool which I love karaoke well.. ill try one day not a big club fan but deff great to have but great place all around..

This is a nice space, and the drinks were good. I just wish both bars were open, from the beginning.

Seckond Chaynce was LIT.. Vip could have been ALOT better!

Great place to have some fun with friends! Karaoke and dancing! And GREAT music! The atmosphere here makes it impossible for you to have a bad time!👏

Its a 2 in one location. A nice club and the home feel bar in the back with pool tables, darts and Karaoke. The karaoke DJ is a lot of fun.

This new club is pretty awesome! DJ Roonie G rocks the house. Great music, great drinks and a great atmosphere. What else could you ask for?

Great club. Drinks are reasonably priced, staff is friendly, and great split design allows for karaoke and dancing all at once.

My wife and I went there on date night had a great time. Cool atmosphere on both sides really enjoyed the karaoke

The drinks was great the service was excellent i would definitely pick this place if your looking for a great night out with some friends

I love it! Karaoke every night theyre open is why I come. Great place to entertain family and friends.

Best bar Ive been too in the states. Great people, Karaoke, Club side Fridays and Saturdays. Tons of events each week.

Very nice setup I really enjoyed my experience at this establishment and so did my wife thank yall so much for being so kind and Catering and hospitable I will definitely return

Dont normally do reviews but this place is great. Very friendly staff fun environment for the social and loners. I recommend giving it a chance.

How in gods name can you give this damn place anymore than one star, I mean when you walk in the first thing that happens is you get Frisked for weaponry, I get there and the owner of the place asks me if I’m drunk because I’m showing up there at 1 PM, I was stone sober, not only that but I finally get through the door after being frisked, and a little teenager collecting money tells me $10 to come in at 1 PM you’ve got to be kidding me, what kind of a ghetto hole Are you walking in here where you have to be fresh when you walk in the door any other place I’ve been in Columbus the greeting is much less confrontational and you don’t get patted down for weaponry, what kind of place is this that they have to check you for weaponry when you walk in the door for Christ sake, are there really that many hood rats in that place that they just show up with guns and knives or what have you?

This place is aimed at the hip hop rap culture. Bad service. The karaoke section is aimed more at playing music then karaoke singing. Not a good experience at all. Very unprofessional

Great place to karaoke and just hang out, we practically had the whole place to ourselves on Wednesday and it was great, the staff made it fun

Great drinks and great place to sing karaoke but be prepared for the cigarette smoke smell while there and after you leave

Bar tenders were great and the prices werent too bad. Good vibes the whole night

Spacious bar with live entertainment. Clean invironment and nice people. Enjoyed seeing xilla gorilla, tj free, and seckond chaynce

Really cool spot. Three different kinds of parties at once and room and space to pull it all off. About to do karaoke now..

I love the karaoke bar, but I hate hate HATE how there’s a cover charge for the club that we don’t even go to. Otherwise, I’d be coming here every weekend.

My husband and I had a great time there...its a fun atmosphere...and especially when rapper B.O.B preformed...CANT WAIT TO GO BACK!!!!

Great environment everyone gets along the karaoke selections are amazing..

It was nice just need more waitresses. The Karaoke was super fun!!

A really interesting and up-beat place, separated down the middle its more like a separate night club and bar sharing a single building!

Didnt quite experience it but people started to pour in as we left, looked to be pretty live. Will try again

This place was awesome. Amazing staff and kj. Will definitely be back the next time Im in Columbus.

They never answer the phone. Ever. Overpriced and subpar atmosphere.

Awesome staff... Good prices...

Exactly what you picture when you think nightclub. Had a blast at my friends bachelorette party

The bartenders are great, the karaoke is great! What else is there to say? Try this bar one night and see for yourself!

Came here for a birthday party/ showcase and it was honestly a great show and fun times. Thoroughly enjoyed

Had a great time on New Years Eve. Less people than we expected, yet still had a great time. Awesome staff.

The bartenders were great. And the experience was all around great vibes. Rayvin and Cassie were excilent

Last night was all the way live with local performing artists! No drama just good music and a good time

Miss Yolanda had on time and great service thank you will come back

Cool vibe and super nice employees. Its a litttttle difficult to navigate but once ya figure it out its all good 🤗

Great atmosphere and mixture of music. Only wish they served food later than 11.

There were a total of about 7 people in the bar when we went... plus the bottled miller lite was old and stale...

Small club and expensive drinks. The owner is chill, but just wish there was a bigger dance floor.

Come see slugga at the sound factory and the DJ legend Roonie G spin all your dance mix music.

Always have a great time staff is always friendly, people are havin fun and getting it on!!!!

Its a very nice venue but hard to find, the location isnt conducive to the public.

Liquor watered down don’t drink here go somewhere else it’s low key music straight but if you tryna get yo drink on don’t come

Nice atmosphere and cheap drinks. Had a great time

Great time With Friends !!! Great Drinks and Staff and Service Awesome!!!

Good experience. The manager, Rodney, took care of an issue I had with professionalism and understanding.

Had a blast, 2 different rooms with different music, plus pool tables

Cool place to visit n have fun. Pool tables darts music and more

Just a hang out place for mostly young adults. If I was a 20 or 30 something would probably rate higher. Bar, music, pool, games and no apparent trouble.

Love this place I enjoyed my self i will go there agin..

Best place to enjoy each other company and also enjoy some karaoke

Second year in a row. The livest and diverse halloween 🎃 party in the city. Nothing comes close.

Good spot for in club smoking. Drinks are delicious

Buyer beware. If the bartender makes a bad drink, you have to pay full price if you want another one

I love the since, they was called Yazzoos downtown!! They family now!!!

Had a good time, fun place, friendly staff.

Great karoake, dance bar, drinks, everyone was coo! We will be back.

Had a very good and memorable time. Thanks Sound Factory

Same people young door keepers bad news stay safe and not go

Rude bartender,old music, limited seating looks like club in the 90s

I had a great time and will definitely be back!

They let underage people in an slow them to drink
