This is the best place to go for a good time with great vibes amazing atmosphere and a comfortable safe environment! The food is delicious, the service is top-notch and the entertainment is perfect! If you want some great laughs this is the place to go for a fantastic time!
You will walk in not knowing anyone and walk out feeling like you know everyone in the room! The owners will greet you and if they've never seen you there before they will introduce themselves to make you feel welcome and comfortable! The music is superb and each and every moment you spend there you will not regret it! But don't take my word for it, go there and you'll see that you will want to be there every weekend and every time there is a show!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - DJ S.Uniondale, NY01Jul 2, 2024
The new location is even better than the first... who says you have to go downtown to get comedy when you can get it right in Harlem! You never know who may pop in for an impromptu set either.

I had a great time at this comedy show. I plan on going again. I've told friends about it already. The staff was nice, the young lady who hosted was great and the comedians were really good.
At first, I didn't know if I was in the right place, because it's in the cut, kind of like an alley lol. But it was fine and the spot was cool. I think the minimum was $15 and you could buy either food or drink to meet the minimum. We needed a spot like this in NYC.Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jan 9, 2023
This spot is blowing up. Each time I come the crowd is larger than the last. Reasonable priced tickets and strong drinks make for a good night. Unlike most comedy clubs, here there is no 2 item/drink minimum. Another plus is your encouraged to order meals from the seafood restaurant downstairs to have during the show.
On the downside, it's a small venue with no separation from the bar area. The bar area can get pretty load and distracting if not controlled properly.
There's always a nice line up of comedians some established and plenty of brand new funny people trying to catch a break. I love to laugh and will be returning soon.Helpful 13Thanks 0Love this 15Oh no 1 - Jun 27, 2023
I've been to Comedy in Harlem twice now, with tearful laughter both times. The comedians booked have been quite funny, and even when a joke or routine didn't land, I've seen them pivot and really capture the crowd. Jamie Roberts, the owner, also doubles as the host and comes with his own humor and never fails to get the energy up for the next comic to hit the stage. On our last trip we learned that there's also a live band that comes to play after some shows.
The drinks are mixed well and strong, both good signs at a comedy club. They're reasonably priced too. Food can be ordered with the Comedy In Harlem staff but comes from the restaurant downstairs. The spot is a bit off the beaten path, but you won't have an issue finding it. I will warn that there are stairs to climb.
We'll probably go back in a few weeks for another event. See you there!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Terrence J.Manhattan, New York, NY052Feb 11, 2024

The venue, comedians, food and drinks are good... i've been there twice ... had a good time!!!however you have to do something about the entryway and the amount of rats... and garbage in front of your establishment. I know it's the city but you don't want a rat in front of you or behind you when you're trying to walk up the stairs to your comedy club.. it also makes me wonder about eating or drinking there!!!

But, I know it's NY but you guys must do something about the RATS
Not in the venue but walking in ... call the city!! Set up traps..not a good look when a rat walks by you as you walk in the alley to the venue!!!Feb 24, 2024Previous reviewOMG I laughed so much my stomach was hurting.. the comedians were hysterical. One was funnier than the other. The drinks were on, and the food believe it or was good ...had mac & cheese, wings and the cabbage I definitely will be back.

Looking for some laughs, check out the Comedy in Harlem spot located in Manhattan, NY. We arrived at this cozy and clean establishment, welcomed by security ( at the main entrance), the owners, and cheerful staff ( upstairs). The owners were friendly and attentive to patrons. One owner ( Jamie) served as the MC for the night. He was hysterical and did a nice job keeping the audience engaged. The club serves soul food and moderately price drinks to their customers. The $25pp entrance fee was well worth the ticket. A mix of comedians entertained the audience for 3 hours. It was a fun night, and I will go again in the future. Street and garage parking available in the area.

See my earlier review. It is also a good place to hold adult celebrations. Invite your friends and family. You won't be disappointed.
