My boyfriend and I stopped by for a sold out Friday night show. Check in was fairly quick and…read moresimple. The room was completely packed and servers were under staffed. I read a couple of other reviews noting that service was chaotic and that was certainly my experience. After we were seated, it took a while for the waitress to come by. The table next to us told us that they had been waiting 45 minutes for the waitress take their order. It seems like we were placed in an area that was forgotten by the staff. Anyway after we placed our order and got our food & drinks, we never saw our waitress again. She came by at the end to give us the bill but didn't check on us for the entire show. We didn't even get a chance to order our second drink as part of the 2 drink minimum since she never gave us the opportunity lol thankfully there was no fee! For food we split the chicken tenders and fries ($24). Pretty expensive but surprisingly a decent portion with 6 chicken strips. Not to the fault of the venue but there was an incredibly rude and disruptive group behind us which was distracting to the show and really took away from the experience. It was disappointing that staff didn't do anything to intervene and tell her to be quiet. She was talking the whole time and her phone rang twice during the show!! Overall I'd probably come back for another show and mostly enjoyed my time. But at the same time I'm wary after the semi chaotic experience

Punch Line Philly is a popular comedy club in Philadelphia known for its live performances, good…read moredrink selection (including craft beers and cocktails), and food service during shows, with a layout designed for good sightlines from every seat in the place. My daughter and I went to a comedy show one January 22nd and main comedian was Brad Ttackman and he had two openers. Service was up to par. The comedians were fantastic. I haven't laughed so much that my cheeks hurt. What great performance. Drinks were delicious and we ordered the loaded French fries. They were delicious.

Will definitely be back, keeping my eye on their schedule!

35 years old and this was my first time at comedy club. Shame on me…read more The tickets at Helium are Will Call by default. There are no mailed or mobile tickets for this venue, unfortunately. I arrived 30 minutes before show start and the Will Call line moved rather quickly. The line to get into the showroom was longer than Will Call. I purchased reserved seating and once I got inside, one of the attendants walked us to our seats. There's a two item minimum per person in the showroom, but it doesn't matter what you buy. The waiters walk around periodically to ask what you'd like to order and bring your check closer to the end of the show. We went to see Vinny Guadagnino and he was hilarious. His two openers were awesome as well. There's a parking garage right next door and also a good amount of metered street parking nearby, too.

GA shows are not easy to attend because chances are, you will run into a more rowdier crowd. Here is how I prepared myself the day of to ease some of my anxiety: - Go early to secure a good spot to stand at. - Drink lots of water before going. You don't want to lose your space by going to the restroom. Expect to stand for 4+ hours. - Eat a good meal, you don't want to faint. - Wear comfortable shoes. We left on a Friday night from New Jersey to Philly during rush hour in mad traffic. Got to the venue 20 minutes before the show started and I was so surprised to get a spot in the first row in front of the stage. I was like...no wayyyy!!! Acoustic here transmitted pitch perfectly. My videos do not do it justice. The sound was incredible. I think I danced every second of every moment. We really lucked out with some of the nicest people around us. While dancing at one point, a girl tapped me on the shoulder and said..."you're like the only one dancing and I think that's awesome that you're not afraid to do so". I replied, it's frickin Bob Moses, how can you not dance? Loved that I got to dance with a couple of the wild girls standing near me. Lol. Staff here are extremely friendly. One of the security guards below the stage was nice enough to ask if I wanted any water. There are a few bar areas for alcoholic drinks and small bites. Highly recommend this cool a$$ venue. It was standing room only for this show but seats were available for an extra $200 in the upper mezzanine, first come first serve. Restrooms: clean and plenty of stalls. Note: River Casino across the street offers free parking. We got to grab a bite to eat there afterwards.

We sat in the dead center literally 5 feet from.the stage. Chris Cotton was the headliner and damn is that dude funny. The other 2 comedians were just okay bit still entertaining and got a few laughs. The bartender was sweet and made decent drinks. Can't give any parking tips as me and my friends took the train from NJ then Uber from 8th and market. Be advised though, as others have mentioned, there was only one waitress working a room of 60. Obviously they need more staff in that regard because once she gets you a drink, theres a strong chance you'll never see her again. Minus one star for that but didn't bother me much since I have legs and can walk to the bar 10 feet away, but I can see how it could bug people. I would go back. Cool little joint.

The food..think any hotel catered event..not always well seasoned or cooked to your liking...the salad (skip it); the chicken was dry and the salmon was a good portion size! The dessert-cheesecake was average! The entertainment-the actors were energetic, but could benefit from wearing a mic! The story 'whodunnit' storyline was jumbled and had many distractions..but if you are a fan of JB Fletcher or Columbo...you know that is to throw you off!
