The gift/giveaway I won  smokes and jokes collaboration with cafe!
Brianna A.

Honestly was nervous I wouldn't find anyone funny. Will be back, the vibe was great. $100 for the night and a cute date, including tickets and some rounds of drinks. Smoke and jokes set was very good. Can't wait to return soon.

Seating in the backroom

I was quite impressed with Comedy Bar. Came for the Sunday Night Live which is a local rendition of Saturday Night Live. The skits were humourous and easy to follow. The acoustics were excellent as you can hear the actors voices from any spot in the room. Staff were super friendly... from the ticket booth to the bartenders, they were great to interact with. The seating arrangement is a bit difficult to navigate. We sat behind the bar rails, which was great to rest our drinks on, but people sitting directly in front of you end up blocking some of your view. Overall, this is a good place to catch a comedy show with a group of friends.

This is a great venue to catch a local comedy show! The staff are so friendly and helpful, and the prices are pretty great.

I ended up going to the Sunday Night Live. Sketch comedy is not my type of comedy but I thought some lines were decent. It is a good venue and I enjoyed the music the band was playing. However, it was played really really loud.

Went to the Comedy Bar as part of a Yelp event and had tickets to see Sunday Night Live. The venue is located in the basement but has a really nice and intimate decor to it. The lobby and bar area is really big with lots of seating and space to hang around and chill while waiting for your show to start. They have a fully equipped bar and some snack (chips, chocolate, candy) no kitchen, but they tell you that you are allowed to go outside and get food and bring it back to eat to the venue to eat which is really cool and nice of them. My ticket was for the Sunday Night Live show that they put on, which is their version of Saturday Night Live. The company was made up of about 11-13 different actors and they put in a bunch of different sketches using different props. The show was about an hour long and had some great, good and ok sketches. They also had some live music which I found to be too loud for such a small venue area.

Comedy Bar is a gift to the Bloorcourt neighborhood. With comedy shows of all different flavors - improv, stand up, sketch, and more - there's a little something for everyone here at Comedy Bar. The business has been "unofficially" open since the late spring, but only had its official opening in November 2008. But in the short time it has been open, Comedy Bar has already managed to wriggle its way into the hearts of comedians, comedy lovers and reviewers alike. With a full stage and versatile performance area that can go from cabaret style to straight seating to open space for dance or Rock Band parties, groups have flocked to book their shows here. Even while renovations were still going on, the bar had shows nearly every night of the week. Now that the kitchen is open and the bar stocked, it is set to be a great venue for the long haul. The kitchen hasn't been open long enough for me to get a full sample of the menu, but I can tell you that it is both ambitious and impressive, and nowhere near your usual "pub grub" type offerings. The staff at the bar are all friendly and funny to boot. Be sure to ask for the bar's signature drink, the Sexy Hangout. Not only are troupes performing nightly, but some of the city's best festivals such as the Fringe Festival, the Toronto Improv Festival and the Toronto Sketch Festival all call Comedy Bar home for performances.

Chicken sandwich and perogies
Lilian L.

Learned of this place off of Groupon. Pretty good deal. $20 for two general admissions with $20 worth of food. Got the chicken sandwich and perogies. The perogies were very delicious and filling as well. I watched Helder Brum and friends in the cabaret room. It was very tiny but the way it was set up was very intimate and it felt like you were a part of something fun, not just an audience member at a show. There was only one booth at the very back with a table so we had to eat our food out of take out containers on our laps. That part could have been better but it wasn't a huge problem for us. Our favourite part was the lamb chops puppet show! Hilarious and very entertaining. The comedians that were featured that night (Dec 19) were all pretty funny. Got some good laughs out of us. The music performances were nice and soothing. I didn't quite get the humor in the storytelling portion. It was more awkward than funny for me but maybe that's what they were going for. Overall, I enjoyed it and would consider returning without the Groupon deal. Their food was very reasonably priced. Want to go back for the perogies :)

Lmao!!
