Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
Worth it

I’ve had a few great nights here — comics who clearly knew how to read the room, quick turnarounds, and the kind of vibe where the audience actually wants the jokes to land.

What I wrote thereFold it away

West Side Comedy Club is tucked into the basement of Playa Betty’s on the Upper West Side. The space is cozy but well laid out, and the crowd tends to skew local, which gives it a slightly more relaxed feel than the downtown clubs.

I’ve had a few great nights here — comics who clearly knew how to read the room, quick turnarounds, and the kind of vibe where the audience actually wants the jokes to land. It’s also one of the few comedy clubs in New York City where you can grab tacos and a drink and then head over for a show without moving more than twenty feet.

Having hosted comedic powerhouses such as Jerry Seinfeld, Jessica Kirson and Bill Burr, this popular NYC comedy club doesn’t shy away from taking risks on talented newcomers. Check out the new talent showcases offered on Saturdays or the “Not Ripe Bananas” shows hosted every Tuesday to watch comics try new material.
