- Jon H1 contributionA fantastic night of laughter and free ice creamDublins hidden Gem. What a fantastic night of laughter. A must see when visiting the city. There was 3 very funny comics on throughout the night along with the host whom got the crowd well and truly warmed up with his hilarious stories.Thx John we're delighted u had a good time, hope to c u againWritten 19 April 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited April 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 10 April 2023
- Sarah H3 contributionsGood funGreat comedians, wonderful host, free intermission treat - very good night out in Dublin! The place is accessible and friendly although best to go early to get a good seat. The only thing that caught me off guard was the suggested donation at the end. Not that they wanted a donation but they suggested a €15 donation for something advertised as a free event. Good to contribute but that seemed like a larger amount that I had expected given the advertising.Visited July 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 12 July 2023
- Sean SSherburn in Elmet, United Kingdom3 contributionsBest night in DublinAmazing night! Had a concert me and my fiancé were going to cancel so we were trying to find something to do in the evening, so happy we found this gem! All comedians were hilarious, the atmosphere was brilliant and the drinks were delicious. Big shout out to the host Aiden Greene who had us in stitches every time he came to the stage!!! I could see why some people would be put off by the size of the venue but personally it brought a more intimate feel and was a bonus! 100% going to go again.We're delighted you enjoyed the show, see you again!Written 27 September 2023This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 5 September 2023

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Came here for the first time, booked tickets for my Boyfriend’s birthday, we arrived at 8:15 and the venue was rammed which we completely expected and is a testimony to the club and it’s comedians, we were really looking forward to it, however after standing in the wrong place we were asked to move which was no issue, being called ret*rds by your staff however was an issue, we left before the show even started, so disappointed and really didn’t expect it from such a highly recommended Dublin venue.

Hi we are really sorry to hear this, can you give us some more details please, send us a message on social as being called that is something we are shocked to hear and take very seriously as this is not something we would ever expect from anyone at the venue. Please message.
