    A nice full and intimate room for HaHa's
    Christopher S.

    This room is the best in the city and state. Catching local talents and degenerates work out new material or established comedy stars, there is something happening every night of the week. The staff is friendly and professional. The decor and lighting is amazing. It's located in a buzzing area of Baltimore. It's probably safe. Right?

    First time at the port. Came on a Monday for a Support the Port night - it was awesome! Free show with short bits from like 10 different comics. The line up was super diverse, and given that it was a free show, most were there to test out a few new jokes in their routines - it kept everything super fresh and fun. Whiles it's a small venue, you're not as packed in as other places. Had a small bar with good prices. Definitely coming back!

    A small place perfect for a good laugh! We went for a low key bachelorette weekend event and we had a great time. Not overcrowded. Drinks available and super entertaining. ShelleyBelly was a pleasure to meet in person. I dont always get to meet the comedians. Love that!

    My husband and I went here for date night and I enjoyed myself. The venue was small and intimate, which I liked. Our greeter was friendly and welcoming. Our first stop was to select our drinks. There is a two drink minimum per customer, so we purchased a bottle of Riesling. We were then seated, smack dab in the middle of the front row... but it worked out..we were not picked on too bad lol. The venue has food so we purchased wings and sliders which was brought to our table. Our show consisted of two funny comedians and then the main comedian, Mike Cannon who was also good. I know we will be returning for another enjoyable, fun filled evening.

    I'm definitely back here! My my fiance and I went for the Juneteenth comedy show, and the comedians had some phenomenal sets. It's a small venue that seats maybe 25 or so and has some pretty cool styling and decoration. There's only one bathroom so keep that in mind. Food and drinks can be ordered to your table via your phone and they have a pretty good drink selection. We'd eaten before you came here so I didn't get to try the food but maybe next time. It's a great place to just hang out and have a good laugh though and that's what I was paying for.

    Great little spot in the heart of Fells Point! The staff were really friendly and the place was clean, cozy and intimate. We were greeted upon entering and they let us know our drink and food options and served us before and during the comedy show using their ordering system. Would highly recommend this for date night, a solo date or even a girls/guys night out!

    I have been coming to this comedy club since the day it opened and it is one of my favorite spots in Baltimore! We have introduced lots of our local friends to this place and I also bring my out of town friends here if there's a a show! I love seeing and supporting local comedians , here and there they will have people with impressive backgrounds perform. You can buy a drink here at their bar and the prices are great, we las ways get a bottle of wine and sit back to enjoy the show

    New to the comedy scene but every time I've been there it's been a great time! Lots of bigger and bigger names coming through

    the front of the pub

    On arriving the Staff were fantastic and kind; the show was amazing, and all the performer's really put thier heart into their craft. I believe they just got their Liquor License, so you know comedy some drinks, it's a perfect place for a date night or outting with some friends. I don't recommend bringing your children to a comedy club but reader you do you. It is a smaller venue so if you plan of going be on time or catch a pre-sale so you don't miss out, I personally plan on going back at some point soon in the future. Oh and I think they might be looking into serving food as well .

    The Port was intimate and well run and looks like they'll have more good comedians coming up that I follow and love.

    I have been to the Comedy Factory many many times so this is an overview of my experiences. The…read moreComedy Factory is located inside the Best Western Hotel. There is also a club on the bottom floor in which there is shared parking. We typically see the same comedian every time we come. There has been some shifts over the years when the box office has been however now it's on the first floor to the back. I usually order my tickets online then pick them up at the box office. The ballroom/comedy area has been remodeled a few years ago in which I love the comedy legends being placed on the walls. The place is really first come first serve as far as seating outside of VIP seating in which I never brought. This place can get really crowded depending on what time you arrive. We have been packed in there like sardines many of times. The food option are ok for a typical Comedy show. There is a 2 drink minimum. The security staff needs major work on professionalism, crowd management and interacting with the public. I have also had huge issues with security in past years and have seen security not act professionally at all to other guest. In that case security needed security. SMH. Why do I return you may ask? My husband enjoys seeing the same comedian every time he comes so I oblige.

That was an easy yes since I love to laugh and after remembering him doing the Trump impressions on IG, I knew I'd be cracking up. Baltimore Comedy Factory, which I will be referring to as BCF for the remainder of this review, is tucked away on the 2nd level of the Best Western Hotel. Some folks think I'm "Bougie" but I'm far from it. I love stuff like this.. Lol! BCF has a separate entrance so you don't have to go through the hotel lobby to get there. Once you walk up a SUBSTANTIAL amount of stairs, yes, you'll add to your daily steps, trust me, you'll have to stand in this loooooong line if you didn't purchase VIP tickets. I know you're wondering, no, she didn't purchase VIP tickets.. Lol! :) Even with the long line, once you enter, BCF is pretty damn big and finding a nice table to watch the show wasn't a tall task at all. I was pleasantly surprised! Just like most venues similar to this one, unless you come with your friends, you'll be sharing your table with complete strangers. That's cool with me since I'm social but introverts may be a bit uncomfortable. BCF has to work on their food and drink ordering system. The day we came, it took about 45 minutes before our server made her presence known. Once she arrived, she did a good job and had a cool personality. All and all, I had a very good time and I'd definitely come back, because no, I'm not Bougie..LOL!

Recently finished Mike Harris' Intro to Improv 101 course (7 week course)- it was a blast. Had fun and learned a lot. As a student you get to go to all BIG's shows for free which is nice, good learning opportunity. They have various types of improv shows every Thurs-Sat nights, been to several and enjoyed them. Highly recommend taking a course or seeing a show. Am now in Michael Furr's standup comedy class which has been amazing so far. Aesthetics wise, it's no luxury theatre (they rely on donations and grants to stay operating, so this is understandable!) but it gets the job done and is homey. Convenient location near a few local bars. Parking Tip: If attending an evening show, get there early if you want to find easy street parking right out front (cheap, pay via kiosk or Parkmobile app). There's a parking garage across the street that's $5 if you tell them you're there for the theatre.

He was super attentive to his students, encouraged everyone to set their own boundaries and promoted open communication through games and improv.

The two item minimum has never been a problem for me with the DC swiss burger and an angry orchard coming out to about $35 after tip. I just factor that into the cost since the tickets for the show are usually pretty cheap.

Booked tickets well in advance via Vivid Seats and bought the event protection. The interior was smaller than I expected, definitely a homey feel. We arrived an hour early to pick up our tickets at Will Call, painless quick process. Host led us to our seats and was friendly. We sat close to the front. Average waiting time to get our food for a busy comedy club, the old bay fries and burrito were pretty good! Needed improvement: Our server wasn't smiling at all, did the bare minimum. My husband ordered two items that were featured in one of their combo specials and didn't notice, a great server would've pointed out that it's more cost effective to order the combo, but she didnt. left a low tip as feedback, figured that would get the message across. She then came back to ask if everything was okay with the service when we were trying to pay attention to the show- didn't feel like explaining then, so explaining here. Other servers however appeared friendlier. Pro tip: if you want to get picked on by the comedian, sit towards the front in the center, that's where it's lit and he/she and the camera can actually see you. Or the tables flanking the stage. Parking tip: the garage right next to the theatre is $17, suggest parking there rather than the pricier $25 one around the corner across the street! We realized this after. Would def come back to see another show.

    First time seeing them at Ram's Head in Annapolis on 1/25/2015…read more They were an enthusiastic, energetic team of performers that unfortunately just were mostly unfunny with just a few humorous moments. Their shtick is the standard "Whose Line?" game play with the audience - picking topics and keywords / using crowd interaction to try for comedic effect. Maybe they were having an off night, or maybe I was expecting more based on other reviews here, but they didn't knock my socks off, nor did they really rock the other three people I was with. Tickets were $17.50 each. I'd be interested in seeing them again maybe in an online video to see if they have a better laugh factor than I caught during my live visit. Long story short, I was disappointed, and wouldn't recommend them based on my experience.

My husband and I love the fact that going to a Free Range Show is an evening guaranteed to be hilarious and unique. The show is interactive and the performers professionals. They perform at multiple venues at multiple times so it is not difficult to find a show time that fits into a busy schedule. Believe me, it is worth fitting a show in. The tickets are affordable and easily accessible through their website. Once you go, you will want to go over and over just to see what they can come up with. Because the content is based completely on audience suggestions (and sometimes the audience members even go up on stage and become part of the action!) no show is the same as the last. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I need more stars.
