We got cheap tickets online...You get what you pay for. Horr

by Willydavid86 at Citysearch

Sometimes you just gotta choose. French fries or mashed potatoes. Boxers or briefs. Comedy club or dance club. Point is you can't do both.

The Comedy Stop fails miserably by trying to do the impossible. It attempts to make people laugh in the least amenable of venues. The audience's view to the comics on stage is obscured by enormous jagged columns. The working bar smack dab in the middle of the place doesn't help. People congregate and completely ignore the show.

Comics deserve the audience's attention. It helps them focus and be funny--the whole reason you go to a comedy club. With all the distractions, it's no wonder the line-up was lousy. Maybe the dance club is better, but if you're going to get some laughs, spare yourself the trouble. Drinks were horrible and expensive

Below average comedy club

by JohnBranch245 at Citysearch

Even though I had free tickets to a comedy show here, it wasn't worth it. The comedians were a bit below average and the club was far below average. The service was very slow and the one old waitress was very unfriendly. The drinks were awful and weak.

Terrible club

by JesseCalvin54 at Citysearch

This club was awful. The comedians weren't funny, the service was slow and the staff members were wicked rude.

Pleasantly surprised

by beantownduude at Citysearch

After reading a bunch of reviews on here and Yelp, I was skeptical on this place. After hearing they had 1/2 price tickets for people with college or military IDs, I took advantage of having that college ID.

Comedians were super funny and there were enough to performers to fill an hour and a half set without getting stagnant or boring. I laughed pretty hard a few times

The door prices are cheap enough (and even cheaper if you bought a Groupon or have a college or military ID) and the drinks aren't over-the-top expensive. They're pretty on par with the normal prices for that area.

Shows are done by 10, leaving plenty of time for going out afterwards. Would definitely go back to this place in the future
