    Immerse yourself in Seventh Heaven; the bartender-owned karaoke lounge, independent theatre and private event venue with a penchant for the uncanny. Seventh Heaven is a cocktail-forward third space with an unapologetically upbeat social energy that transports you to a candlelit isekai fantasy characterized by baroque and brutalist aesthetics. Located in the heart of New York City nightlife, Seventh Heaven is hidden away with an exterior marked only by their signature number 7 adorn by flowing angel wings. Tea-infused signatures are the the star of Seventh Heaven's cocktail program with the photographable Dirty Chai Latte (a chai-infused espresso martini served in a vintage teacup) or The Apothecary's Negroni (an oolong and apricot-infused riff on a Boulevardier with notes of marigold and fresh ginger). This careful curation is present through the rest of the menu through a selection of rare Japanese beer, well-priced natural wines and a robust non-alcoholic mocktail selection. Whether you are searching for one of the largest karaoke rooms in New York City or are looking for a unique space to host your next party, let's meet at Seventh Heaven!
