Kyla FallinJanuary 15, 2014All the comics showed up...great set! Don't forget the free shot if you check in...it was really good! The drinks are pricey! We used a groupon but the drink bill was still $35 due to drink minimum
Maria MarquesFebruary 5, 2013A classic comedy club on the Upper West Side. A popular tourist destination that gives time to many local comics. Mix of styles as well as drop-ins from locals like Judah Friedlander, Jim Gaffigan
Kairo TurnoJanuary 4, 2014Comedy is fantastic, but there is scammy vibe. 2 drink minimum at $14 per drink. However, in a group you can avoid by getting the bucket of beers...also sit where you want. Don't let them push you
Andrew CSeptember 8, 2019Visited in the past and the quality of comedy really depends on the performers... 2-drink min and the show and prices are standard... the venue itself is small and seating is quite tight!!
Sabrina GafkenFebruary 25, 2015Had such a great time! Went to the earlier show then the let us stay to see the 2nd one right after. There is the 2 drink minimum. Only complaint was the food was so cold when it finally arrived.
Alexandra TritzAugust 20, 2016Awesome show ! A little bit on the expensive side but worth for the laugh ! I recommend Yamaneika, she is awesome and made me laugh until crying !
Swati DoshiJuly 21, 2013Your 1st 4square check in gets you a kamakazi shot. Also, if you're sitting at the bar before the show, they call you in 1st and we got great seats!
MyCheck USMarch 11, 2013Stand Up NY now accepts payment through MyCheck app. This free app saves you time and lets you pay your tab right from your phone, no waiting for the bartender! Easy to use and saves you time!

Benjamin DoyleMarch 29, 2014Great vibe, great place. We were expecting 3 comedians and there were an extra 3 surprise acts!- Mark SowdenMay 21, 2013Amazing comedian but 20 dollar max spend but laughed the most I have for long time overall worth it
- Melissa BurgessFebruary 3, 2015Get your tickets from one of the guys in Times Square. Not a fan of the drink minimum. Also, I gave them $40 to cover my bill and they didn't give me change back, assuming the rest was a tip!
Benjamin LybergFebruary 2, 2013Had a great time! Intimate and cozy place. The comedians were awesome.
One of the best things to do late night in the UWS, when area seems to shut down.

Don HunterJanuary 26, 2014$20 min per person, very expensive drinks, plus your ticket. Long lines, must have reservation or likely won't get in.
Jacob WashingtonMarch 9, 2013There's a 20 dollar drink minimum which means they'll suck you dry for 20 bucks even if you buy drinks that come up less than 20. Bottled water does count for it for those health nuts.
Matt SametJuly 5, 2012Good show but rude seating staff. Was one of the first ones there but we were forced to sit in the front, even when we requested not to. So, actually get there late...
- Jacob WashingtonMarch 9, 2013Heres the verdict. This place is quite crowded. My experience was terrible, 3/4 of the comedians weren't funny & just standing there saying we were uptight. Only the closers had the audience laughing.
latrease hawthorneFebruary 27, 2015Hilarious comedians some better than others and the drink minimum sucks
Mark UrquhartNovember 18, 2011Be careful, I bought tickets based on who they advertised for that night on their website. Not one of the advertised comics showed up...
Sean McKenzieDecember 31, 2013Saw Charlie Murphy here. Very personable. The staff accommodated our late arrival.- DittoPostJune 6, 2013I don't understand how there's a Rick Shapiro show advertised and he goes on for 10 mins then there's 20 other acts in between.

"Nice chill atmosphere with a bar you can sit at (not too many people crowding it) and a mix of standing room, high tables and couches. Decent beer selection and small Halloween candies FTW."
