3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2013 NEW

it is hard to carry a group comedic night with a handful that are truly funny. That is what the Comedy Club was doing... Mmmmm 'a night of comedy'… or that is what they promised… if only the majority could follow the lead of the minority then we would not have had to sit through some seriously misogynistic views referred...

was very surpised. When we got into the club, It was small. 7 pm show on 11/5/13.did not think there would be good comics in such a place.but i was wrong. the comic were funny, and eclectic. some were new, some were older. but they were all very funny in there own way,can't judge a club by its size.

We bought tickets in Times Square for the warm-up event at the Comedy Club. Prices were good but there was a clause to buy two drinks each person - no problem for us but just watch out for those not into drinking. The evening was excellent - there were around 10 performers, on stage for between 10-15 mins. I would... More

We were also approached by a guy in TimeSquare and paid $10 per head to get in. Some of the comedians were entertaining... others not so great. When we got a bill of $38 for two drinks and one coke we were not pleased to say the least!! Other parties there had the same complaint and we all had to... More

If this is the best in New York, you would not want to see the worst. These comedians were not funny at all. One of them even said, "Im dying here", as nobody was laughing. There were two moms who brought their 14 year old daughters. What the hell were they thinking. This was very filthy language for 14 years... More

Paid $10 per ticket in Times Square, so worth haggling to get down from 20, it's a good taxi ride out to the east side, and if you haven't Pre-booked get there a little earlier and go for a drink in the Irish bar round the corner, have a few large drinks and possibly stick to $15 soft drink package...

we were approached on times square by two ticket sellers, they were friendly and informative and were up-front about the 2 drink limit. however, reading through all the reviews, there seems to be a variation in ticket prices and we definitely paid the more expensive end at $20 a head! we arrived at 9.30 as instructed and had to wait...

There were a lot of comedians and liek everywhere, a mixed bag. In three hours probably ten comedians of varying length. Only two were very funny, maybe three on a stretch. When you couple that news with the $20/person on a Thursday night and the two drink ripoff, my date night for two cost me $95. If I take the... More

We visited the New York Comedy Club in December 2012 and although we enjoyed the patter from the guy who sold us the ticket we were not so impressed with the club being "just off broadway"- a good 25 blocks off in fact. We really enjoyed the comedians but the $42 dollar bill at the end was less impressive- particularly... More

It was inexpensive and fun, great seats for everyone, some good some only so-so - you just never know.... just what I like about a NYC club. Drinks were a rip off - jack and coke $12 each for a tiny one, but it was strong at least.....
