Cash Box (錢櫃) is Taiwan's dominant karaoke chain and the Zhongshan branch on Lin Sen North Road is the most relevant location for visitors.

Lin Sen North Road Beer Houses
Lady BarsTaipei, Taiwan
The pijiu wu (beer house) format that lines Lin Sen North Road is the most accessible adult entertainment in Taipei for foreign visitors. Open-fronted establishments where female staff serve beer and food — the interaction sits between a restaurant and a bar, and the arrangement is social rather than transactional in the direct Southeast Asian sense. Patience required; the format rewards slower engagement. Beer runs 120–180 TWD; an evening with company typically 1,500–3,000 TWD in drinks.
📍 Lin Sen North Road, Zhongshan, Taipei
Red House Bar Zone

The most openly social bar zone in Taipei regardless of orientation. Peaks Thursday to Sunday from 9pm.
📍 Behind Red House Theatre, Ximending, Taipei
