With some time to kill on a Tuesday evening, noticed that there was an 8 o'clock showing at this…read morepopular comedy spot. Central location and no line to speak of to walk in. General admission is £16 and there is no drink minimum. Despite that, still got one of the drafts on tap (£6ish) and settled in near the corner. Most of the seats are reserved towards the middle and back - so I assume this is possible when purchasing in advance online. As for the show itself, the comedians are knowledgeable and topical. The theme is "The Cutting Edge" for Tuesdays, which is mostly focused on current evens and political news. A tip for the show, they make fun of the first row a lot; best to keep that in mind when choosing seats. Great show and would come to visit again.

Only one steak and ale pie left...so they obviously gave it to me because i haven't tried before---i mean how can you be in london and NOT try this?! Outrageous!!

The week I went down apart from excellent performances from comedians on the circuit there were guys from BBC1. Andy Parson was trying out material for his tour and Lee Mack for his too. It was amazing quality for £7 whereas normally you would pay up to £20 to see comics like that in other venues. Great night, thoroughly recommended as this will be a regular Monday outing for me!!

What a wonderful way to spend an evening!…read more Two films (usually with a theme running between them) for £7.50. SEVEN FIFTY!! Last night's was a Joaquin Phoenix double bill, showing Walk The Line followed by Two Lovers. While we ended up skipping the first film and just having dinner, the price is still very reasonable. We shared a lovely bottle of wine outside on the terrace (had to sit on the wall though as all the tables were full) with amazing views of the river and Hammersmith Bridge. Back inside for dinner, which we shared: a large mezze platter and some mushroom bruschetta, both of which were delicious and just enough. The cinema itself is what every cinema should be: small and dark, with the seats on an incline so everyone can see. They showed the previews and ads WAY before the start time (PERFECT!!), even drew the curtains in between the previews and the film itself (DRAMATIC!!). Riverside has much more to offer than just a restaurant and a cinema... it also shows stand-up comedy, has a fully functioning tv studio where they film live shows, a theatre for live music, and art exhibitions. A wonderful space with quality at every turn.

We came here while in London, looking for a good time, and we definitely found it! This was one of…read morethe most fun things we could have found here. The show is hilarious, full stop. The bar staff is great and the drinks are seriously cheap. The place is exactly as you expect and hope for a comedy club. A great vibe, a great sound system, a great lighting system and a great crowd. The cost to get in is minimal, but if you enjoy the show, they will ask you to donate what you think it is worth. And, seriously, if you don;t donate way more than the cost of your $1 ticket, then you just suck. The show is worth way more than the cost, by a long shot. Pony up $20 you cheap bastard! It's so worth it. I'm so glad we found this place, and we had a phenomenal time. Go here!!

I was really impressed with how good they were! There were two breaks in the middle of the performances where people could chat in the bar area and get some drinks or food.

We stayed until the very end and the bar closing.

To our dismay, we were charged an extra 3 pounds each as a "late fee"(??) because apparently we were supposed to arrive 45 mins early. Even though we had tickets. So our choice was to lose our tickets or pay the 3 pound charge. Clearly, they knew we didn't have a choice. Gross.
