I love this place! So fun! There are amazing programs for little kids, teens and adults!

Our friends invited us to a comedy show held at The Crow and we were so surprised this place existed! We would have never known about this artsy area on the other side (south) of the metro exit off Bergamot. They had 2 separate areas with 2 shows going on simultaneously. They sell snacks and drinks including beer/wine. The setup is like a restaurant with a small stage - walking by I first thought it was a restaurant, maybe it used to be?!? I believe they have comedy classes there as well. Everyone who worked there were super inviting and we had a good time. read more

Took a friend to The Crow 3/26/26. Great line-up, funny show - really interesting comics from all over the country. I've seen several shows at The Crow and never been disappointed. I've seen many Main +Sunday Co. shows at The Groundlings and The Improv on Melrose over the years. I pick my Netflix specials carefully and have honed my sense of humor. The Crow is the best comedy going on the west side and really brings in the diversity we all can applaud. Catch a show at The Crow!!! read more

We stumbled upon this little hidden gem by accident on our way to Birdie G's. We ended up at the crow and it was comedy night and it was kind of ironic because earlier when we were looking for Birdie G's we met this guy on a Harley who was here for the comedy show and I'm like there's a comedy show here? So, boom we ended up at the Crow we found out. They still had tickets available so we bought tickets and couple of beers and there you go... The comics were hysterical. Of course they picked on my guy. He wouldn't stop raising his hand so that's his problem... But it was a really cool vibe... artsy in the art district of Santa Monica LBGTQ plus friendly and you know selling all like beers that are aligned with the same core values as myself making sure that everybody's inclusive it was great. It was a good night. We laughed our butts off. read more

I had the honor of attending an event at The Crow last night for my friend Elissa Kalver's book launch (btw go pre-order it - We Got This, to read about how she learned to thrive with terminal cancer). Through Elissa I'd heard of Nicole's non-profit, Storyectomy, which helps people cope with their cancer experience - be they a survivor, a thriver, or a caregiver. As part of the night we heard from several "graduates" of Storyectomy, and what a powerful event! Through them I heard traces of my own experience; cancer is awful and I hate that it's this nebulous horrible thing that connects so many of us, but it's great knowing there are communities out there to help us cope and adapt. While I wasn't there for a typical event, I think this venue is fantastic, and dare I say it the founder is even more so. Thank you for giving people a place to share their voice. read more

They are doing awesome things here for comedy, the community, and local biz. read more

I loved this place the people are welcoming. They seem to have always somebody good on the lineup and when I say good, I mean actually funny. Real easy place that whole area down there is cool get dinner come to a comedy show good vibes. I'm not sure if they serve alcohol. I don't drink, but they got these cookies there that are awesome. Cold caffeine beverages. I just had a good time. This is as close to a five star I don't give five stars four as my max lol read more

What a fun and supportive place to do an open mic! I had been so rusty and not prepared for some material but wanted to get up and perform. Great talented and supportive group of women! So happy this is up on the westside and I will definitely be a regular. I've got a lot to work on lol! Very excited to have found this place! read more

The Crow - a stage set up for a performance - Comedy Clubs Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Went to The Crow on Sunday afternoon to see a staged reading of "Our Town" by Thornton Wilder. It was hard to tell who enjoyed the show more, the audience or the cast. The lady who created The Crow spoke before the show began. It's quite wonderful people create venues where people who have that very special talent of being able to entertain others can entertain others. The Crow is a small enough venue for the audience to actually be able see the actors. My younger brother is in show business. He lives in New York City and won a Tony a few years ago. He goes to shows almost every night. He would have noticed all sorts of marvelous things about this show I didn't notice because I am not in show business. read more

I attended an afternoon w/ Rosie O'Donnell and it was a great show with a humorous Brent Jewish/ Filipino opening act. The space was quaint and a vibe. All my senses were intrigued. Nicole B you are doing amazing things and appreciate the womanhood voices. read more

The Crow is a fantastic place to enjoy comedy or a date night. They have free parking, they are steps from the 26th street exit of the metro E-Line, and there are a lot of art galleries and restaurants in their business park. Really recommend checking out The Crow for a local, cultural So Cal experience! read more

Great comedy space in Bergamot Station! Intimate space-- about 25 people the night we went Like all stand up nights, some on the line up we're HILARIOUS, and others.... not so much Easy, free parking (how often can you say that in Santa Monica???) They have non booze drinks for now, but getting their liquor license Excellent Saturday night activity read more

Fun location. Nice staff. Nice space. The night I attended the comedians were funny. It's not really a food venue: I think they have cookies for sale along with beer. Hopefully they'll get better chairs soon. Metal on concrete is loud in a performance space. The space feels new still. I hope it succeeds. read more

The instructors at The Crow create a welcoming, supportive and, most of all, fun environment to learn standup comedy and find your comedic voice. It's one of the best ways to start your comedy journey! read more

Not basing my review on the lineup because like someone said, some will be good, some will be bad. Overall the place is just okay. There's ambiance...I mean I wasn't expecting a comedy club but it felt more like being in an empty apartment living room sitting on uncomfortable chairs. Cannot get liquor there or anything to eat unless you go to one of the restaurants next door which is fine but the few things they had to drink there were overpriced for stuff that you could just get at 711. I'm a homebody but when I leave, I'm looking for an escape that I don't feel I can get at home and this just wasn't it. All that being said the people working there were friendly enough and there's a large parking lot with free parking. read more

A west side comedy club / event space thats so cute and classy it's a wonderful place to host a private event. I rented the crow for my husbands birthday and they were so accommodating and wonderful to work with--from arranging time for me to check things out to providing extra touches like the ability to use their projector, a/v setup and support and a staff member to make sure all our needs were met the night of the event. I got so many compliments from our guests about what a hidden gem of a venue it is. It's beautifully decorated, great location right off the ten freeway in Santa Monica and a huge free parking lot. It's also surrounded by art galleries which adds a bit of extra special atmosphere as you get to the club. I look forward to checking out one of their comedy shows soon. read more

Another great show last night at The Crow!!!Intimate comedy venue with hugely talented lineup of comedic artists !!! Sophisticated , politically-charged , relatable story tellers ... perfectly placed in Santa Monica nextdoor to one of the top restaurants in LA BirdieG's. and free parking !! read more

I'm taking a standup comedy class and have been hitting different open mics around LA/Hollywood to demystify the experience and "find my voice" The Crow surpassed my expectations! The host at the boysdrool (women/non-binary mic) was attentive and funny, drawing a thread through people's sets. There were many talented people the night I went, and the group was incredibly supportive and respectful. Definitely a safe space, and a joyful way to spend an evening. The venue is quirky, artistic, well-ventilated. Signups fill up quickly, but I'll definitely be back, both for open mics and shows. What a treasure, especially on the west side! read more

Great local comedy club and they really try hard to deliver for their customers. One of our kids did a comedy camp there and we realized what a lovely community they've created. A gem in Santa Monica!! read more

Anyone could benefit from this class! Its good for mental health and personal growth as well as teaching the tools of comedy. What a supportive and creative learning environment! The instruction was very clear and supported with materials and assignments. My teacher Nicole was amazing and made me feel welcomed and encouraged. Met some wonderful people in the class! I love The Crow! read more

This place is fantastic in so many ways. To start, it's clean, it's cute, it's got free parking, it's welcoming. Now for the comedy: the lineups are always great, and there's a variety, so you can keep coming to shows and always get something different. The open mics are friendly and not intimidating at all. The classes are insightful, well organized, and worth every penny. The owner is so nice and welcoming and it comes across in all parts of The Crow. It is so nice to have an awesome spot on the west side! read more

Super cool space and fantastic story telling. I look forward to going back. Hit Bertie G's for dinner next door before the show. They offer a 10% discount for those with Crow tickets. Thank you for a great night. read more

If you're looking for a laid back night full of laughs, check out The Crow! The venue is awesome - it's small and intimate. There isn't a bad seat in the house. There is a jazz band that plays music before and after the show. The comedians when we went were: Jen Kober, Alex Hooper, Stephen Agyei, and Julia Stone. They were all HILARIOUS! Everyone was laughing nonstop! There is free parking, the bathrooms are clean, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby for dinner beforehand or drinks afterwards. We will definitely be back to support this local comedy club! read more

I wound up at this place last minute on a Friday. We went for a comedy show and I haven't laughed that hard in months! Real cute venue. It's a small place so there weren't that many people working but they were all super nice. read more

Went last night for their comedy show "The Kids are Fine, Not Great". Wonderful time watching college and pro comedians share the stage. Kudos to the Crow for nurturing the next generation of stand-up comics. read more

The Crow - College comedian Zoe - Comedy Clubs Near Me - Santa Monica, California

My son took stand up comedy classes here and loved it so much. He always looked forward to his weekly class....it was worth the horrendous traffic going home (only 7 miles away but takes 45 mins - navigating Santa Monica during rush hour is soul killing lol). We will be signing up for the next session as well. He learned so many important life skills and made great friendships! The final show where they got to perform their skits was beyond adorable and very impressive. Highly recommend! read more

Best new comedy and arts venue in LA! Beautiful location great parking great owners and a wonderful vibe.

I attended F'ed Talks to originally see Emerson Dameron of Medicated Minutes but, was won over by all of the talent on the bill. I honestly haven't laughed that hard in such a long time. The venue was cozy and inviting for my first experience. I won't lie the location isn't the easiest to find but go early and take your time. I'll definitely be back in the future. read more

We saw the Virgin Sacrifice show tonight and it was phenomenal! All of the comedians absolutely killed with their sets, and the venue itself was so comfortable. It was intimate but still felt full, and laughter bounced around the room easily. Great sound and acoustics for a comedy venue. Will definitely be back! read more

This place is fantastic! Got invited by a friend to see a show. Hadn't heard of it but wow I'm so glad I went! It's in a great little area, easy access to the freeway and it is so clean and such a good vibe. I will definitely see more shows here. Highly recommend! read more

Great place! My kid had an amazing time at their summer camp. Final show was a blast.

Beautiful venue and top notch comedians! Every comedian I saw at The Crow was witty, smart and hilarious! It is also great for team building or for hosting your party. Nicole the owner will take care of everything and will delight your group. I took my team from Google last week for a team bonding event, and it was fantastic, every member of the team loved it. It was truly a team building exercise, one of the best I have been to! I appreciate Nicole's professionalism and preparation, it elevated the experience, everything was just perfect! read more

Went to The Crow for the first time Saturday. What a unique and cozy venue. Parking...OMG. So easy at Bergamont Station. Club holds about 75 people with no seat more than 25 feet from stage. The line-up was incredible. We laughed hard for 90 minutes. The headliners both has Netflix shows just released. This is a gem of a place to see up and coming and established comedians perform and hone their craft. Highly recommend for date night. Dinner options also available in same area. read more
