We came here a few years ago and it was a bit rough, but I'll definitely be going back soon. Highly recommended and well worth £10 of anyones money, especially if the Norwegian guy is on.

My friend fainted inside the pub. Her boyfriend stayed by her side and than a serciruty man picked her up and took her outside. I went to the bar and asked for a glass of water saying that my frien had faineted and that was received (by a slim blond Barmaid) with a great lough!!!! She repeated after me and sarcasticly asked me if i wanted a glass of water with or without ice!!!!! outrageous
I went outside to check on my friends and found one of the bouncers accusing my friend of giving drugs to his girlfriend and holding him by his neck pressed to the wall my partner try to help saying that he was her fiance and did not do anything wrong to her and this was received very agressivly both bouncers jumped on him putting him to the ground (he cracked his head) my friend got conscious and went home with her fiance.
Than i was not able to come back inside with my partner and was told to go away! When i asked for the names of that two bouncers who jumped on my fiance they were not able to pronounce them i guess because they just ignored us! i was told to call someone to bring my coat and bag (however my phone was inside)
I have never ever experienced such a treatment and poor customer service! Members of staff including manager need to be sent on an intensive customer service training before something else will go terribly wrong in that place!!!! they are not able to hold events like this in their pub! SHAME

The service is great! Some of the best sevice i've ever had, and enjoyed the comedy too! That is until the comedian who was good, but thought he was god and came on to me! Hahahahaha....... It was the best laugh of the night! Mr Velvet jacket, I'm glade that you think that your charming off the stage because I think you should re-evaluate your perception of yourself!
My issues aside, I enjoy the atmosphere, and there is always something going on..whether it's a live band, the comedy or good conversation with friendly people.
Thanks Raul, you most definatly have made me feel welcome!

Go for the comedy try and drink elsewhere would be my tip.

I’ve been there twice recently with my husband and some friends and despite the dubious charms of the pub we laughed ourselves silly on both occasions. Sickeningly hilarious! Great line-ups both times. So, yes, we would go back – but only for the weekend comedy bills.
When you get through the stench of the entrance….(is it the stinking bins…or is it the pong coming from the basement where the accumulated debris of many drunken guts has been deposited?) you arrive in what surely must be in the running for the accolade of ‘most depressing pub in central London’.
Picture it: dirty magnolia paint; peeling wallpaper; filthy fittings; lack of atmosphere; some, though not all, fairly charmless staff.
On our first visit, wanting to extend our humour, we hung about afterwards for a few drinks. This is when the strength of our good humour was tested to the limit. One would have thought that an essential prerequisite of any service industry would be an ability to interact pleasantly with customers. Well, here at The Comedy, if you are unlucky in the queue at the bar, you might well be served by the stuck-up barmaid who would be better placed in a role at the London Dungeon serving up blood she’d sucked from a hapless victim the night before.
Who is managing the place? Is it Count Dracula?
As it was, it wasn’t cold blood she gave us, it was warm beer.
Nevertheless, other staff were pleasant and we thoroughly enjoyed both comedy nights.

all of you who work there are so kind, it's no surprise people we met love it there, I am coming back to England in June with my brother, it will be nice and i'm looking forward to it.
THANK YOU once again, your hospitality & kindness deserves 10/10

I just read the review about the manager being great and introducing new specials and so on,,, yes good, there were specials before he arrived though so sorry to burst your bubble..., sorry to say... but the only thing i can think of is someone writing this that works there, i personally feel that we all should find out the names of these people that are rude and uprupt... if not only one person as i have encountered a few times... trust me i still like the pub, i just wont be going there as much as i would like..
Its a real shame though,,,, plain and simple pub, really good atmosphere though....
went there last week and it just happened that i got served by the same member of staff,, girl i might add,, real snobby.... i work for a marketing firm,,, i know all about product sales and so on,,, obviously you the comedy are not just trying to sell the stock but also the pub and the company to bring in more customers and to create a better image of the company... i do say that action has to be taken, otherwise there will be no future for this pub,,,
bring bac the old manager and all the old staff, not to mention sum of the staff working there currently, which i reckon should stay...
so to whoever gets to read this, i hope action will be taken not just for me the client but also for the sake of your company,,,
your friendly regular as it were...

The Comedy is not like that any more. I appreciate that management changes. It changes for the better or it changes for the worse. This is the epitomy of change for the worst. The nice decor, cold beer, the ability to manage the televisions so that they properly show a football match, and the friendly and experienced bar staff are all gone. Now there is an under-staffed bar, warm pints, mis-managed televisions, and obnoxious and rude bar staff (with the exception of and apologies to the two girls who have survived these changes - bless them).
I don't complain, because I don't ask for much. Pint of Kronenbourg. That's what I have ordered for the last 3 years. The "Old Comedy" staff were so well aware of this that my pint was poured and waiting for me from the moment I walked in the door. THAT is customer service and well beyond. That is why I continued to come in. This doesn't happen under the new so-called management.
One night I ordered my pint and it was flat. It tasted poor. I complained - for the first time ever (I never had cause to complain before). The girl behind the bar refused to serve me a proper pint. She beckoned the so-called manager over. He tried to tell me that there was nothing wrong with the beer - it was visibly flat. He argued with me. Argued? Whatever happened to "the customer is always right"? I don't ask for much. I have a pint of Kronenbourg every day that I come in.
I used to enjoy going in to The Comedy. Quite a bit. It was a great pub. It's a shame, really. I go to the Tom Cribb now.

Where are the good old days when your regulars were treated like family and not like outsiders trying to get into an exclusive club
For the sake of a good pub I hope it will all get sorted

The service has gone gone from friendly and fast to appalling. Apart from the tedious bar service, I've also waited 45 minutes for food that then arrived cold and was given short shrift when I complained.
This place used to be very good, now extremely poor.
