We were looking for things to do Friday night and came across Mad House. Tickets were totally reasonable and available. They pack you in, but that was fine. All the seats are good. There is a 2 drink minimum but not quite enough time for me to drink 2 cocktails. A bottled water was an acceptable drink option. There were 7 comedians over the 90 minute show and they were all really funny.
I loved the energetic stand‑up comedy at Mad House Comedy Club. The atmosphere was fun and the drinks were reasonably priced, making it a perfect spot for a date night. Would definitely come back again!
