About

Bar: Full barBest nights: Fri, Sat, Sun

Open daily from 6pm to midnight, Gotham Comedy Club sits in a 1929 building next to the historic Chelsea Hotel. This is where NBC's 'Last Comic Standing' was filmed, and Comedy Central's 'Live at Gotham' calls it home. The space was designed to evoke 1920s nightclubs, with Art Deco details and warm red tones throughout.

The crowd here leans 30s to 50s, mixed gay and straight, with a focus on the comedy itself rather than a party scene. Full bar and casual dress keep it comfortable. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays are the busiest nights. If you want a drink before or after, Please Don't Tell is a nearby speakeasy worth a stop.
