Review Summary

Reviews of The Comedy Nest describe it as a beloved Montreal venue with an intimate, historic feel and a strong, varied lineup that reliably delivers laughs and good value on drinks and tickets. The overall tone is positive, with many calling it a must-visit English-language comedy spot and praising the energy of the host and the quality of acts, including standout headliners and solid openers. New Year’s and other nights alike are described as enjoyable, with bubbly and drinks adding to the experience. However, some guests report service quirks and seating oddities, such as being directed to a table with other guests or conflicting messages about sold-out status despite visible empty tables, and others note limited food options aside from snacks, which can feel overpriced. The venue’s character and staff are repeatedly highlighted, and many say they will return, appreciating the sense of tradition and the reliable laughs that The Comedy Nest provides for a night out.

It was great! I feel they should integrate a QR code on tables for people to order drinks instead of the old lady walking around during the show. It would simply be more efficient

Amazing bang for the buck! As any comedy joint, it can be a hit or miss depending on the comedians but the show we went to recently all 5 comedians were great.

Been there twice. The ambience is great, their Montreal mule is a must. The comedians are funny & ensure you reach there on time to get the first seats. It's a whole different vibe being seated near the stage vs afar.

Cool spot for comedy. Located inside the Old Montreal Forum which was nostalgic for me.
