The World Famous Comedy Store

This is our first time visiting LA from Vancouver, Canada and one of our first stops was catching a show at the Comedy Store. My partner is a comedy buff and really wanted to see Rick Glassman for his birthday. I ended up buying tickets to the WRONG show and was devastated. We spoke to the incredibly helpful staff who assisted us with getting in touch with the manager Ryan. Ryan went above and beyond to help us with our mix up so we were able to see the correct show. We cannot thank Ryan and the team at the Comedy Store enough for their exceptional customer service and hospitality. We will definitely be back again!

Once the site of celebrity playground Ciro's, the Comedy Store is now celebrating 50 years of equally star worthy stand- up performances & iconic performers. Three rooms offer no wrong choice for any weekday or weekend night -- though performances can be uneven. Have a drink & enjoy!

The pizza is gross. Very thin, tough. I can't believe I'm going to say I'll prefer little Ceasars than the pizza from here..... Chairs were too close to each other so your knees would be touching the person's knees and if you turned without looking you might accidentally kiss the person sitting next to you. But the comedians were ok

Amazing show last night ! Over 3 hours of pure comedy! It would be a 5 star review if it was only about the show ! But their staff is way too loud while taking your orders . It kinda breaks the flow. Also they charge you 6$ for a room temperature bottle of water lol I get the 2 drinks minimum but I would have rather buy 2 beers at 14$ and have a glass of tap water. At least keep your bottles cool !

Tickets are not expensive but there is a “minimum two drinks per person” rule, alcohol or not. If you didn’t pay for the booths, for a party if two or three, it’s very likely you will share a long table with others . If you order a double, they charge as two orders, so a double shots cocktail is $34 there.

Pretty great experience. VIP early access was pretty good price and they had some good comedians. The waitress wasn’t very polite and the drinks were awful but the show and seating was great!! Suggest getting drinks before going because it will be hard to suck down the two drink minimum with the way they are made.

Mix of Podcasters and professionals working on their new material. A couple of bombs, and a couple of good ones. Some of the most uncomfortable seating I’ve ever experienced. It was so bad, I actually left early. They have a two drink minimum and don’t count food items towards that requirement. Six dollars for a small bottle of water is a bit greedy, if you ask me.

Love the atmosphere. You can feel the history. It's written all over the walls.

I have no photos because you are not allowed to use your phone inside the place, but the inside is pretty nice. Depending on what ticket you get your seating arrangements can be more comfortable. The comedians that I saw were really good at getting a read on the room and then building on with themes that resonated best with us. Would definitely go again.

THE O.G.! Being a fan of live comedy most of my life, I've always wanted to get out to see shows at The Store.. Was not disappointed. Love the space ... the 3 rooms allow for a multitude of acts on any given night. Room sizes are perfect. Staff were all fantastic. The representation of comedic history is on point. Will definitely be back again.
