Dans l ensemble, les avis sur The Comedy Nest mettent en avant une ambiance intime et une offre variée de spectacles à des tarifs raisonnables. La qualité des numéros et l énergie du lieu sont souvent saluées, et le cadre historique du site contribue à une expérience mémorable même lorsque la programmation oscille entre différents humoristes sans être grandiose. Des points pratiques reviennent toutefois, avec quelques retours sur un service qui peut sembler abrupt et une offre culinaire limitée, souvent limitée à des snacks comme du popcorn ou des chips. Certains commentaires mentionnent l absence de nourriture plus substantielle et des aspects logistiques, tels que l aménagement des toilettes selon les soirées. Malgré ces détails, The Comedy Nest est fréquemment recommandé pour passer une soirée stand-up à Montréal, les rires et le cadre étant des atouts qui incitent à revenir.
Love coming here, I've seen some great & not so great shows, but that is what comes with supporting comedians! Venue in a great spot, lots of great restaurants around & you can pay for parking underground if needed.
Taking off one star just because I wish there were better food options...the chips & salsa & popcorn can use some TLC.
After going a few time to McKibbins on Mondays for the comedy show, this place looks'fake' , like if it has no soul. Everything is missing. Comedian do their best to, but the problem is the place on my opinion

If you're looking for something to do in Montreal on the weekend this is definitely it! The comedians always put on a great show. The staff are so sweet & the tickets are so cheap!
I recently visited The Comedy Nest & unfortunately, my experience was disappointing overall.
One major inconvenience was that the bathroom is not located inside the comedy club itself - you have to leave the venue & walk toward the arcade area to use the restroom, which really disrupts the evening.
The drink options were quite limited, & I was surprised that they don't offer a complimentary glass of water - you're required to purchase bottled water instead.
Service was also lacking. The waitress took only part of our order & rushed off while I was still speaking. When I tried to continue, she mentioned that other clients were arriving, which felt dismissive & unprofessional.
While some of the comedians were funny, it wasn't enough to make up for the overall experience.
Unfortunately, I would not recommend & would not return.
Went on Valentine's night with my partner, & we were both really disappointed.
When we were being sat, the employee brought us to a table with another couple & pointed to it, saying'you can sit here, they are a lovely couple'.
Given that we were at a comedy club coupled with the fact that there were about 15 empty tables nearby, I thought the employee was doing a bit. I half-jokingly said,'are you serious...?' to which the employee very abruptly said,'we are fully sold out tonight, so yes, I am serious'.
I looked around the room & gestured towards the several empty tables, & the employee shrugged,'I guess you can sit over there then'.
My partner & I walked ourselves to an empty table (which was surrounded by several other empty tables), & by the time everyone had been seated, there were still 10 or so completely empty tables. Very bizarre.
The drinks were good & well-priced, but we were disappointed to see the only food on the menu was a small basket of popcorn (for I think $7?) & nachos & salsa, for an equally absorbent price.
Overall, we won't be back as while the comedians were funny, we'll go see them at a different venue with better customer service & snacks.
**Fantastic comedy experience in a piece of Montreal history!**
Had an absolutely wonderful night at The Comedy Nest! The show was outstanding from start to finish. The MC was incredible - really knew how to work the crowd & kept the energy high throughout the evening.
The headliner, DJ Demers, was fantastic. Even after what seemed like a challenging travel day (which he brilliantly wove into his material), he delivered an amazing set. All the comedians brought something unique to the stage, but the headliner was definitely the standout of the night.
A note about the location - yes, The Comedy Nest is situated in The Montreal Forum, the legendary former sports arena that's now been transformed into a shopping & entertainment complex. The comedians themselves joke about it feeling like a'crappy mall,' & sure, there's an arcade next door, but there's real history here! You can still see elements like the center ice circle & original red seats that remind you this was once home to the Montreal Canadiens.
Here's the thing though - once you step inside The Comedy Nest, you completely forget about everything outside those doors. The venue itself creates the perfect intimate atmosphere for comedy, & the quality of the performances is top-notch.
Don't let the unconventional location fool you - this is a gem of a comedy club with fantastic shows. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great laughs in Montreal!
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.
