El Grito runs karaoke every Thursday evening from 6pm at its Drogheda restaurant on Meat Market Lane, just off the town centre. It is a Mexican restaurant and bar rather than a dedicated late venue, so the night starts early by Drogheda standards and runs alongside the kitchen rather than after it. The listing from the venue is direct about the format: bring your friends, sing your own songs, and stay for the evening.
Because it starts at 6pm, this is the rare Louth nightlife listing that suits people who want a night out without a 2am finish. It works as a warm-up before a later bar, or as the whole evening if you eat there first. Tables fill through the earlier part of the evening with diners, so groups planning to sing are better off booking a table in advance rather than arriving cold. Drogheda’s town tourism listings site carries the night as a fixed weekly Thursday fixture with confirmed dates running from mid-August through mid-September 2026, which makes it one of the few dependable midweek nights in the town. There is no cover charge listed. Contact the Drogheda branch directly at info.drogheda@elgrito.eu to reserve a table or check the night is running on a bank holiday week.
Meat Market Lane runs off Laurence Street in central Drogheda, a couple of minutes’ walk from the Tholsel and West Street. The Scotch Hall and Stockwell Street car parks are both within five minutes on foot, and street parking on Laurence Street is free after 6pm. Drogheda MacBride station on the Dublin to Belfast line is roughly a ten-minute walk across the Boyne, and the Dublin Road coach stops are a similar distance, so the venue is reachable without a car from Dublin or Dundalk.
