Broadway Comedy Club.

Worth it, says Antonina. If you’re in Midtown and want a casual, no-frills comedy night, Broadway is an easy option.

  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

Broadway Comedy Club sits just far enough west of Times Square to feel slightly removed from the chaos. The space has two separate rooms, so depending on the night, your experience may vary. The lineup usually includes club regulars, newer talent, and comics testing out material between bigger gigs.

I’ve had a few surprise standouts here. It’s not flashy, and the feel depends a lot on the crowd, but that’s part of what makes it interesting. If you’re in Midtown and want a casual, no-frills comedy night, Broadway is an easy option.
