Went to see our friend "Velma" on 16th Sept last year with my daughter, amaaaaazing is all I can say, going again Saturday 8th April I know it will be same , look him up on his Facebook page, don't miss out !!!

Went to see Alfie Moore. It's a relaxed casual intimate basement. All the staff were excellent would definatly go again, and Alfie was great to.

Just performed a play here, the place is small but has a lovely warm and intimate atmosphere. The staff looked after us really well too. Would be happy to return, either as a performer or audience.

Had a good laugh. Comedians were great. Really good atmosphere. Been here many times and will be returning !! Thanks

Great venue and the staff were fab had a laugh and a joke with us even though we kept them back at the end of the night! If you get there in time for food it's delicious and they match beer/ wine to your menu choice

Great night of Comedy provided by Burning Duck comedy club! Brendon Burns was brilliant!

Great night at the laugh out loud comedy club!

Fabulous evening with Alligator Gumbo, loved the real ale and bar service.



How do I rate you on TripAdvisor?

Cracking night out of face achingly good laughs

Show was great- need more bar staff during intervals

Nice little venue, but rather warm and not enough seating. The bands/singers were great.

Cool intimate venue. Enjoyed the performances from all musicians

Attended a comedy evening, acts were great and staff friendly. Venue not so good, packed in like sardines and long queue for drinks with nowhere to put them when sat down! Also bit warm. I would suffer the venue again to see the acts though!

Been in better music venues. Jolie Holland and Sam Parton are great but alas venue has low ceilings; poor acoustics and limited seating. On the plus side the beer is good
