I essentially avoided these comedy clubs (and the bars around them) for my entire tenure living in…read moreNYC because I thought they'd be cheesy, tacky and touristy. But recently I kept seeing good comedy clips of Comedy Cellar on YT so decided what the hell, why not give it a try? Pro tips: - it is worth it. cover charge is not bad, you basically get to see 5-6 comedians. some nights are $25, but it was Sunday, so was $18. plus 2 drinks, so not an expensive night out. - definitely get a reservation. don't be those 20 people sadly standing in the standby section on the sidewalk, hoping to get an open spot. between the 3 jointly-owned clubs (incl Comedy Cellar & Fat Black Pussycat), they probably do 15 2-hour shows a night. You can always grab a resv for tomm, if tonight is full. - expect organization/chaos. they sort of have this down to a science. they line up the 200 people on the street out front, check ids, assign your table, get your phones into bags, etc. but once inside the system can break down a tad and long waits for drink service and your bill at the end, so be patient. - you will be forced to put your phone on silent and placed into a sealed pouch for the show. no exceptions. literally, your table # is written on the outside of the pouch. - be sure to check-in the minute you arrive, to get your pouch and then get in line (there is no one telling you this) - overall it's a fun time. comedians are talented, it's one of the best places in the country to see comedy and quite a NY experience.

pretty sure comedians hate Yelp but here I am. The operation, just from my first experience, was…read morelike watching a well-oiled machine at work. from the check-in to cashing out, they make it super straightforward and simple. Our waiter was great about checking in unobtrusively. the owner Noam should be commended for his level of customer service & the way he makes sure staff upholds it. Sets were killer, especially Ryan Hamilton, Yamaneika Saunders, and Lucas Zelnick. website is super informative and well organized so you have an idea of whose performing at each room + have an understanding of ground rules/menu offerings/etc. the line outside could use a biiit of work // clearer or larger signs because it was a bit chaotic to navigate with so many people but was chill once we found the Reservations line. hiiiighly recommend making one, btw. Ordered Passion & Heat cocktails + onion rings + a Stella. the onion rings were way better than I expected as was the cocktail.
