The Comic Strip - Edmonton, Alberta

We went to watch Drew Dunn and a few other local comedians. All of them were great! My face hurt by the end of the night as I couldn't stop laughing. The only negative was that the seating wasn't overly comfortable. It wasn't bad, but could use an upgrade.

Not going to bore you with a story so here is point form . The long booth row seats are very uncomfortable the stuffing in the seats are worn out. My @$$ was not happy. . As the crowd was starting to get in, the music got cranked up and became difficult ... to have a conversation with the person beside you. . The policy of mandatory ordering two items off the menu is a crock, especially when dietary restrictions are not taken into consideration. Adjustments were made on request but were very limited. . Overall, the food was hockey rink food and chicken tenders I ordered went cooked all the way through. I did not finish them and sent them back to the kitchen. I was asked if I wanted a replacement I declined but was still billed and but given a coupon for free entry for my next visit. I will not be back for the next show. . The Comedians were funny, but the venue is terrible. I have never been to a restaurant that made me surrender my ID for table service. They need to work on the customer experience. Yeah I will look for other venues to see popular comedians. This place will not get my business again. Read more

Lived in Edmonton for 8 years, been to Yuk Yuks multiple times. Not sure why we never tried the Comic Strip until now. Had a great time. Good service, good venue and a five star performer. Laughed our butts off. Will be back!

I have always considered going to this place for entertainment but seeing as they are allowing a harmful group of people (The Danger Cats) to perform on May 12, I don’t think I will be supporting this establishment in the future. The group in question has raised many concerns and ... complaints with the general public, and as an indigenous person myself, it is extremely disappointing to see that racism is being tolerated as a form of “entertainment”. These people do not deserve a platform to make fun of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls, and frankly, it’s disgusting and disturbing that these individuals hold one of Canada’s most notorious serial killers on a pedestal in broad daylight. DO NOT SUPPORT THE COMIC STRIP. These types of actions deserve consequences. Read more

Was sadly disapointed for the price in level of comedy, comfort, amd enjoyment. Waitress was great at checking in and timing of. Head liner and host did a lovely job working the audience , however out of 3 others only one was decntly comedic. The interuptions and commotion of ... others made it even more difficult to try and follow the " time travel machine " or scatter brain of other comedian, would have preffered to time travel and get that 40 min of my life back. Im used to hecklers: head liner did as he could to handle thou suprised staff didnt step in perhapse a larger more active or aware security team is needed. So guest can actually relax and enjoy. Between volatile lippy tables saucsing at each other around us to people being escorted out infront of our table and @$$ going numb from seats Really was not that entertaining of an evening and sadly disapointing.
