COMEDY CLUBS

Comedy clubs are a great way to spend a night in Philadelphia...or anywhere, for that matter.  The talent ranges from slow and observational to ripping insults that keep the audience on guard at all times.  Whatever the style, the bottom line is fun and entertainment, and as a result we love visiting comedy clubs when out on the road.  This page contains information on some of the top venues in the city.

 

David Brenner's Laugh House
221 South Street
(215)440-4242

This club, which is co-owned by comedian David Brenner, features outstanding comedy in a setting that accommodates around two hundred and fifty people.  This setting tends to attract larger talent, although there are always opportunities for locals to strut their stuff.   We have yet to see someone bomb here, so whoever's booking this place is doing a bang-up job.  It's South Street location makes it convenient and easily-accessible.  Definitely check out the Laugh House, and you'll walk away doing just that.

 

Comedy Cabaret
1010 Race Street
At the Clarion Suites Hotel
(215)625-JOKE

The Comedy Cabaret serves up heaping helpings of quality comedy on a nightly basis.  Please note that there is a two-drink minimum, but you'll have no problem covering that, right?  Again, lots of local and national talent combine for a very entertaining experience.  We absolutely recommend the Cabaret for a different kind of night.  It should also be noted that comedy classes are offered here as well, so within weeks you can be offering witty tidbits about ketchup bottles and airline food to your friends.
