    This place is very intimate which allows you to interact with the comedian. It's best to get here early to get your preferred seat. There are board games for you to play at your seat before and after the show. You can also give the comedian ideas of things to talk about. There's a small area to get drinks and snacks. I only took a star off because we were under the impression that we can stay for multiple shows if we have a season pass. Apparently the 8:30pm show sells out so we were told we had to leave to make room for the next guests. That was a disappointment because we planned our evening around staying for a second show.

    I have been here a couple of times to catch a midweek comedy show or a spontaneous show on the weekend. This is honestly a hidden gem in Brooklyn. If you buy their tickets in advance on line, you get them at such a decent price. The shows are an hour and a half long with a great set of amateur comedians. I have had my best laughs at this comedy club than at an expensive club in the city. The building itself is not the cleanest and the room where the shows are held is not the nicest but the point is to go here to have a good time. They sell white claws, wines and beers for a good price and snacks such as popcorn to enjoy during the show. If you are ever in the neighborhood, you will not regret checking this place out.

    A local beer? I think.

    First time in this place & it was great. We went out of spontaneity. We went for an 8pm show and after it ended the host lets you know that you can stay for the next show if you want to. But you have to buy a drink from the bar. The comedians were ranging from 80% funny to 110% funny. The host was really good about cheering on whoever was on stage and letting the crowd know laughs are encouraged and claps are supported.

    Amazing cozy little place for stand-up comedy. The Tiny Cupboard seats 60-80, and they have multiple shows every night. The comedians are pretty funny and do lots of crowd-work, which I enjoy. Just be mindful that the late shows (ie. 10 PM) don't have many people, so please show some extra love for those people!

    We went for my mother's birthday. The jokes were hilarious when they were, and laughable when they weren't so funny. The wines were good, and we got comfortable seating arriving five minutes late, but the house was full and we had a great night. Definitely coming back!

    Cool rooftop venue. Comics were very entertaining.. strangely the 5 or 6 comics before the headliner were better than the headliner lol but everybody got plenty of laughs out of us! Host was great too. Would love to support again next time i'm in New York!

    Ask the Community - The Tiny Cupboard

    Do you have to be 21+?

    nope-- open to all ages!

    For the rooftop events, do all guests have to show proof of vaccination?

    Hey! Not for the rooftop since it's outdoor. But for indoors we have to start checking proof for at least one shot per government mandate!

    One of the best comedy clubs around in terms of price, size & chill levels…read more Always great lineup of diverse comedians usually in a showcase setting - meaning multiple comedians, each doing @ 12 minutes, one after the other for about an hour and a half. The showroom is in the back and is small & dark which is perfect for a comedy club. There's also a small sitting / waiting area up front that's very cozy & welcoming with additional seating out front for nicer weather / smoking I presume. No bad sight or sound anywhere in this main showroom so that's a plus. Seats about 30 to 40 if I had to guess. It's also run by Comedians so it's pretty much the best vibes you can get for a comedy club. Highly recommended for a fun night out!

We picked Bushwick Comedy Club because it was near our dinner choice, was a great price, and had no drink minimum (we also learned later that it's BYOB, which is cool). I've never been to a comedy club, let alone a smaller, more intimate club like this one. So, I was a little nervous! I didn't know if I could fake a laugh if none of the comedians forced a genuine one, but luckily that wasn't an issue. The lineup of comedians here were great! It was so fun to see everyone's different styles, yet they were all so funny. One comedian in particular had me and my friends crying with laughter. Plus, the guy who runs the comedy club is funny and very friendly and hospitable. Bushwick is lucky to have such a cool spot in its neighborhood. Check it out if you're in the area!

    What a stunning theater! I enjoyed this establishment over the weekend for a concert experience,…read moreand was not disappointed one bit. There is spacious parking behind the building, which gave me great peace of mind. Getting into the building and through security was streamlined and easily manageable. The architecture and decor of the theater is so regal, I could not believe my eyes. My friend and I ordered drinks and popcorn and our bartender was very friendly and quick with service. Prices, of course, were on par with NYC theater prices (a drink costing about $25). We both loved the concert and would definitely come back here for another!

I've been twice...once in the orchestra and once in the mezzanine and there truly isn't a bad seat in the house. The seats are comfortable, spacious, and even have cup holders. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the bathrooms were sparkling clean. Since it's a historic theater, there are no elevators, so be prepared to take the stairs if you're sitting in the mezzanine. Also, the mezzanine has concession stands but no restrooms, so you'll need to go downstairs. Getting inside was a little hectic, but once everyone was seated, everything went smoothly. I recommend arriving early so you can explore the theater and take photos--there are so many beautiful spots. I couldn't take pictures during the show because the Jill Scott concert was acell phone-free experience. The only downside is that the concessions are pricey. My $22 drink from the bar was disappointing and definitely not worth the price. Overall, it's a gorgeous venue, and I'd absolutely come back.

If you walk in expecting a traditional night out, prepare to be lovingly and fabulously corrected. From the moment I entered with a friend, it was clear this place plays by its own, very sparkly rules. The first room was more of a whimsical prelude than a line-up zone: drinks flowing, people mingling like old friends at a costume party, and a gloriously casual pile of pillows where you could recline like a disco-era Roman god. And yes--there was a tarot reader, naturally, because no true evening of hedonistic joy is complete without a stranger telling you your moon energy needs grounding. Once the main room opened, things escalated--in the best way possible. Performers appeared everywhere: on stage, above our heads, behind the crowd--acrobats, dancers, aerialists, all oozing talent, glitter, and just enough danger to keep you watching with your mouth open and your drink clutched tightly. It wasn't just a dance floor--it was a full-blown immersive experience. The music kept the energy up all night: infectious, thumping, and curated to make even the shyest feet consider their moment of main-character glory. The crowd? Pure magic. Full of respectful, expressive, and joyful people, the kind of fellow partygoers you dream about meeting in New York. Everyone was there to dance, to celebrate, to vibe--not to posture or preen. What makes House of Yes so special is that it's not just a nightclub--it's a celebration of freedom in all its forms. Of identity, of movement, of art, of joy. It's campy, chaotic, oddly intimate, and--somehow--profound. In short: if you're craving a space that feels like Studio 54 met a circus in a utopian queer commune, House of Yes is your new church. Bring an open mind, comfortable shoes, and a healthy appreciation for sequins.
