The Comedy Nest

Great atmosphere and staff. A must stop by place in Montreal and located where the old Montreal Forum once stood!

We reserved for 11 friends to see the Saturday late show as part of our bachelorette programming. This was a great experience. Recommend calling direct to reserve because the customer service is exceptional, it’s easy, and you save Eventbrite fees - I just let them know 11 of us were coming and I paid when we arrived. The comic lineup was great. All weren’t bangers but that’s comedy, and working your stuff out. But all in all, they get great talent there so I wouldn’t hesitate to return. The beverage menu isn’t extensive but has all the basics and the prices are good. We didn’t require food but they have popcorn. The staff is super friendly and attentive - our drinks remained full. All the seats are good as it’s a not a HUGE room. The only drawback (and why I removed a star) is that there isn’t a washroom inside the venue so if you need to go after you arrive/during the show, you’re leaving the club, entering the forum of shops and entertainment stuff, going upstairs to use public toilets or at the bowling alley - it’s a bummer. Less than ideal for anyone who couldn’t sit through the 90mins without having to go. The building itself was neat to visit and saw the old chairs from the forum days (beside elevator on the same floor as comedy nest).

Don’t waist your money. Unprofessional, jokes are completely off, unprepared. Went for a "better than your therapist". The show was so bad we had to leave before the end. The people on stage including the host were just saying random stuff. Most of the crowd was not laughing, almost embarrassing.

Ended up here on a whim and loved it. Loved our waitress she was so sweet and seemed like she was the only one who took care of all the tables. I saw that her vest said employee of the month Then i saw everyone's vest said employee of the month The host was hilarious, along with some of the other stand-ups. Will definitely go back.

If you’re wondering about whether to go, the answer is yes. Sadly, I had not been since pre-Covid. The person in charge of our tickets had booked for the night before. The super delightful and competent host at the door, put us at ease and found a nook for us. Every single comedian that got up was funny. Our cheeks hurt from laughing and smiling. Great value for 12$. I can’t think of anything else you can do for so little money that can bring so much pleasure. The drinks are very reasonably priced. Gin & tonic is 10$. It could not be cheaper. The waitstaff deserves a separate review because they’re so good. This place is located in the old forum. Cheap indoor parking. Ride the elevator up to the 3rd floor. It was packed so reserve if you can.

Just happened to be in Montreal and decided to check this out. So glad I did! One of the best nights in town. The comedians are hilarious and the atmosphere is very welcoming. The server was so accommodating and made sure we had a great time. I cannot recommend it enough. Their comedian line up is fantastic!

Went with my wife and my mother during a trip to Montreal. My wife had never been to stand up and had a great time! All acts acts were good and the entrance was only 15$. Service was also on point. Was the first one to get in (about 45 min before the start) and ordered some popcorn and when the waiter saw I was almost done she came by and gave me a free refill ! In terms of drinks the price was good and they walk by the tables throughout the night to make sure you have what you need! Only minor complaint, bathroom for some reason is outside the venue and on the upper floor, you need to take an elevator to go which takes time away from the show . Otherwise, 5/5 highly recommend!
