We loved this spot, and saw a few comedy shows here while in LA, and loved all of them, who doesn't like comedy?! This is a fun location and easy tog et last minute tickets though they do sell out! Parking is horrendous so we always took uber etc. overall a good spot to check out if you are into comedy shows read more

I love this place and have been here 3 times in the past. They have good food and beverages along with great vibes and good times. Every Sunday, they have different comedians and it's called "Chocolate Sundays". Mostly a lot of African American comedians are performing for Chocolate Sundays. They really make me laugh. It's 2 items minimum for drinks. I had the Blackberry Whiskey sour ($18), and bottled water. My friend also had the same cocktail and bottled water. Service by Sarah was great in every way! I can't comment on the food, because we had already eaten. I have had their food in the past, and it's just OK. Bar food. What do you expect? She invited me for her birthday and normally the tickets are $20 for each person. Parking is valet, $17.00. We parked outside. I HATE valet, and don't trust them from previous experiences at different places. Place is very clean, bathrooms needed attention. If you ever get the chance and the opportunity, give this place a try. You won't be disappointed. They had 2 shows. We went to the one for 9pm, since the 7pm one was already sold out. We wanted to go to the 7pm one. Oh well, it was still a fine, great outing with a friend who I hadn't seen in a long time. She doesn't like taking pictures, so we didn't take photos. Thank you Laugh Factory for your great hospitality and humorous comedians. They always deliver! read more

A great spot for a fun date night, or group outing. The comics range from unfamiliar but hilarious to some of the biggest stars of the genre! Parking is difficult as it's in West Hollywood. I usually park across Sunset in the underground mall lot - but it can be pricey. Some of the greatest shows I've ever seen have been at this venue. From the first time I saw Bob Saget do stand up back in 1993 to laughing my butt off watching Daphnique Springs and Bill Dawes this year. read more

Great vibe and a really fun night! The lineup was good, the crowd was lively, and the bar is a nice spot to grab a drink before the show. The waitresses also come around during the show, so you can order drinks without missing the action. The 2nd floor lounge is a cool bonus if you want a little more privacy and somewhere to hang out. The food menu is surprisingly good too, with some decent pizza options. Come for the comedy, and hopefully don't become part of the comedian's material. read more

I've been a standup comedy fan as long as I can remember so I'm glad to have finally been to this famous establishment. It's smaller than I thought it would be but it was clean and still pretty spacious with a mostly capacity crowd. I was at a catered event so I didn't try any food or drink provided/sold by the Laugh Factory but next time I swing by I will definitely have a drink. read more

Laugh Factory - Robin Williams Memorabilia - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The seating was very cramped so if you're a bigger person or even broad shouldered, I recommend getting a booth or two seats if possible. Also sit near the front if you're short. Lots of tall people. Bathroom is clean and a decent size. Parking was $20 with valet but if you're lucky, you can find free non-permit needed neighborhood parking nearby. The comics were very nice and there was no heckling or roasting. A very pleasant wholesome experience with a few raunchy jokes for the "Chocolate Sundae" event. Sometimes the music was a little too loud and I would have appreciated subtitles as you can miss a few words with how the sound system is. We went on a Sunday and it was 80%+ occupied. The two drink minimum isn't super enforced and it's a server going around with the little payment machine card-only. It would be nice if tea and coffee were an option for the non-alcoholics. read more

Came here to see Nikki Osborne and everyone else was icing on the cake. The superstars were the Staff at Laugh Factory who went out of their way to take my disabled wife under their wing. She didn't request it, they recognized, initiated and helped her all throughout. It was our first time there. Ambiance was great, food was great, drinks were great...a very nice and clean venue! And the comedians were great! What a great opportunity to see Nikki, Kevin Nealon, Howie Mandel, Caroline Rhea and the others! Thank you again to the staff...you guys taking care of my wife meant the world to us. read more

Sigh so I guess like every comedy show, 2 DRINK minimum. i asked what about food and a drink - nope. 2 Drinks minimum. I don't drink and I really can't justify buying a $10 bottle water and $8 soft drink. Especially when you pay $40 for tickets plus $18 to valet. Other than that, going to the Laugh Factory for any show is a great time. You will get the laughs. You will get positive vibes. The staff are kind. read more

AMAZING every time. My friend and I got tickets for a random Wednesday night thinking it would be a quick midweek plan, and somehow ended up staying until almost 1am. At one point I was laughing so hard I almost peed myself Brandi was such a lovely host, and as a Persian, I was especially excited to see Amir K and Rahmein Mostavi on the lineup, and they absolutely killed it!! Jack Jr, CP, and Craig Robinson were hilarious too. Stacked lineup. No dead parts. Just nonstop laughs. I also love the venue itself. It's the original Hollywood Laugh Factory on Sunset so it still has that classic old school LA comedy energy. The arched stage, red lighting, cozy little tables, and intimate room are all so lovely. There's a 2 drink minimum, but you can get water, and the giant warm chocolate chip cookie was so good. They also sometimes have buy one get one free tickets online, which is how I surprised my friend If you want to make a random Wednesday night more fun, do yourself a favor and go. read more

The comics were great, the service was great as well. My server was very helpful & attentive. The ambiance was nice too, very intimate comedy club! The food was good as well! I had the House Special pizza which had red sauce, burrata, grated parm, zab's hot honey, & basil. It was delicious! I really enjoyed it & how the burrata added a creamy texture, all while laughing and enjoying the comics! Thanks for a great experience. read more

OMG Orny Adams killed it~! I was looking forward to seeing George Wallance but he was a no show. If you plan ahead, a night at the Laugh Factory can either be a hit or a miss! Stick around for pro tips below. I arrived early to find street parking a few blocks away. I got in line with my party and we entered and we quickly grab a table and seats. First come first served style seating. The waiter quickly comes over and takes orders. Last call will be right before the last comedian takes the stage. Once the show is over, there is no hanging around, you must exit because there is another show coming in (if you're the 7:30pm show). If you don't drink alcohol, there is bottled water for $8. If you're a party of 6 or more, they will add 18% automatically. Check your checks! Ask for an itemize first before paying. Valet is $18 on a Friday night, not sure about any other night. I didn't see any garage close by. Don't park on the nearby residential streets or the lot behind Laugh Factory, your car will be towed or ticketed. When you purchase your tickets it says the the lineup of comedians can change, 2 drink minimum per person, and buying GA tickets doesn't guarantee you a seat. So be sure to go at the time the tickets says to be there or earlier. Bathrooms are tiny! I recommend going when you don't find a comedian funny during the show. Don't go at the end because there will be a huge line and bouncers trying to get you to exit. Follow the tips to have a great time! cheers :) read more

We were excited to visit the Laugh Factory and we thought it was just ok. We had good seats and comedians were pretty good. The women's bathroom was not very clean. And I don't like the fact that there is a 2 drink minimum per person. There were also out of all of the seasonal drinks which was a bummer. read more

Laugh Factory - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been here a few times. Yes it's iconic. However, it needs to be refurbished. It's small on the inside and ran down. There's a two drink minimum, however, they don't press the issue. I watched a couple refuse to buy a drink and no one made them or removed them. The lines to get in are long but they move fast. Valet is $18 but you don't know where they take your car. The sound system could use improving as well. When the comedian gets loud the sound got staticky at times. Overall, it gets the job done but don't have high expectations. read more

Laugh Factory - Very small drinks for $16-$20. I remember them being bigger my first time here. - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here last night for the All Star Comedy show at 9:45pm, and overall it was a great night out -- with one frustrating hiccup at the door. I found the show through an ad promoting a 2-for-1 ticket deal: two tickets for the price of one ($15), with a two-drink minimum per person. The 2-for-1 was in the ad and even printed on the ticket itself. But when we went to scan in, the older gentleman checking tickets told us that wasn't how it worked. When we pointed out that it was exactly what had been advertised and says on the ticket, he said he'd "do us a favor" and let us in this time, but told us to "take care of our server." The venue wasn't full -- we were seated in the first section, and the upstairs wasn't being used at all -- so it's hard not to wonder if this was less about ticket policy and more about steering people toward bigger tips for the servers. Either way, it was a rough way to start our first visit to the Laugh Factory. Fortunately, everything after that was great. The hosts and comedians were hilarious, the servers were attentive, the drinks were good, and the venue itself was comfortable. I'd absolutely come back -- I'd just call ahead first to confirm ticket details so I don't have to deal with that unwelcoming entry experience again. read more

The Laugh Factory is one of my fave venues in Hollywood! There's so much old Hollywood history, and I just feel like it's such a quintessential experience that you could only have in a place like LA. Yes, I know they have locations in other cities, but I feel as though the Hollywood Laugh Factory truly is a one of its kind. Aside from the fact that there's always the chance a celeb will show up at this location, I've always found the shows to be impeccably impressive experiences on my visits. For each show, there are multiple comedians throughout the evening to provide jokes and entertainment. Aside from that, I found myself pleasantly surprised by just how good many of the food & drink items here are - I especially recommend getting chicken nachos & the chocolate cookie. I've also admittedly felt intimated and uncomfortable at other comedy venues in the past, but everyone here was always MORE than friendly and extremely accommodating. Needless to say, I highly recommend The Laugh Factory for fun nights out when you're in the Hollywood area. read more

The Laugh Factory is such an iconic spot--so many known comedians started here, and it's amazing to see that tradition still alive today by consistently bringing in a mix of new, up-and-coming talent along with bigger names, which keeps every show exciting. It's honestly one of those places that never disappoints and is always worth visiting when you're in LA. Even on a weekday which I feel most ppl wouldn't expect. The staff is great, but one tip: order both of your drinks right at the beginning of the show. Once the comedians come out, service can slow down a bit, and you'll definitely want your drinks ready so you can just sit back and enjoy. I come here at least a few times a month and it's always worth it however because I come often I sometimes wish they didn't always have a 2 drink minimum. read more

Laugh Factory - Spontaneous pop up of Jo Koy - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

It's a nice time ! Just was slightly disappointed this past Monday , the line up mentioned a comic I wanted to see but he was not there . Which I know sometimes happens . I always pay extra for early admission, and I always have the server who doesn't come around until a few acts in .. I get sad because I'm thirsty and I paid extra to get a good seat in front and grab a drink asap .. it wasn't too busy when I arrived early and I kept seeing the server chatting with friends instead .. I wish I had the female server because she looked like she paid attention to her guests and was super accommodating to them asap ! Hopefully when I'm in town again , I can get a drink faster please ! Please don't avoid me :) read more

Last night, a group of us decided we needed a little laughter in our lives, so we chose the Laugh Factory for an evening of comedy. We selected the 7:30 p.m. show and planned to enjoy some snacks during the performance. Imagine our surprise when our excellent server, Raquel, informed us that the entire kitchen staff had called out sick. Having gone all day without eating, we asked the manager whether we could order pizza from an outside vendor. Unfortunately, the request was declined. The response was delivered in a rather nonchalant manner and accompanied by several reasons why the accommodation could not be made, which left us disappointed given the circumstances. On a positive note, the comedy lineup was outstanding, and the performers delivered a fantastic show that made the evening enjoyable despite the challenges. Comedy 4 stars. I would research suitable alternatives in accommodating clients the next time the staff calls out sick. read more

Be careful giving your credit card. I enjoy the Laugh Factory Hollywoods comedians... HOWEVER... they took my bank card to start a tab. Charged me my tab price then I get home the next day and I get another 68.00 charge on my card. Mind you my boyfriend and I dont drink. Our total tab waa 68.00. Why the multiple charges? Now I have to cancel my bank card and get a new one. I feel ripped off. Has this happened to anyone else? read more

Laugh Factory - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

For a first time visit it was great, really took me away at how close we were and how lively it was, glad we did the 10pm show. Comics were great which is why it sucks that the latter half of our time was lackluster, we knew going in we would have to purchase something , but one gin-tonic (bombay) a ginger beer , a single pepsi and two waters being 75$ is outlandish by just about any standard. Come for the show but watch your wallet and drink heavily before hand to avoid sticker shock & always email your receipt My one caveat is i was thankful some of the staff was mindful and got the people in front of me to stop recording. read more

10/10 experience. I went for Rubee Tuesdays. The comedians are so much fun and engaged with the crowd. I 100% want go back for another Rubee Tuesday show. Outside of the stand-up, it was cool. It feels really intimate and comfortable. There is pizza by the slice for sale and other small snacks. There is a two drink minimum for each guest which I don't mind when there are great drinks available. The drink I had was absolutely terrible. I ordered one of their seasonal or signature cocktails. It was a cucumber, vodka, soda water concoction. I love cucumber cocktails, but this one was not it. I couldn't even finish it. It was thick, syrupy, and unpleasantly sweet. Their drinks are LA prices = expensive, so I opted for something canned for my second drink. Go for the comedy, and order basic drinks. read more

This is my favorite comedy club in LA. When I come here I usually walk as it's in a nice area of town right off the sunset strip. This is a small intimate club, where a lot of famous artist had their start, and still come to often as "surprise guests" . The man in the front is the coolest, he's been there forever. Service is always top notch, drinks are strong , food is good! You don't go to comedy shows to eat dinner though unless you want to get roasted haha... Great place, bang for your buck, good comedians, check this place out if you're in LA, you won't regret it. It is an iconic LA staple. read more

Laugh Factory - Sit in the front if your brave. - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

They cancelled 9/2 9:45pm show and didn't even say anything. We've been waiting out here!!!

I came here many years ago because I had "free tickets" for two with the two-drink minimum per person. It happened to be Latino night which I didn't know beforehand. The hostess sat me in front of the stage. I didn't know at the time that they always sit you in front of the stage when you're an ethnic minority in the room (I'm Asian) so that the comics can make cheap racial jokes about you when they can't come up with any actual good material. The friend I was with was a black woman, so sure enough the wannabe comics who didn't have any actual good material kept making cheap racial jokes about us. Seriously, if you are so bad at what you do that you have to resort to making lame racial jokes, don't quit your day. read more

I have been WAITING to have the opportunity to come here. I came here on a Saturday night in a group of 5. I definitely had plenty of belly laughs and my cheeks (the ones on my face) were sore from laughing/smiling so much by the end of the night. Some of the political jokes were yikes, losing the crowd at times. The customer service was great. They require a 2 item order that can be both drinks, food or 1 and 1. I had a dirty shirley with their quesadilla. It wasn't half bad. Valet parking was $20 with a 75 cent card processing fee. Otherwise good luck trying to find parking around! read more

Came on a Monday night which was a smaller crowd, probably about 30-40 people max. We found free street parking pretty easily. There is a 2 item minimum (drinks or food) and the servers are attentive to get your order and give your items to you fast. So for two of us with 18% tip, spent about $80 all in. Drinks are pricier and are more divvy-status: cocktail $19, wine $15, seltzer $12, and hot chocolate is $10 to be exact. The show is about 2 hours long - we had 6 comedians and the host. Our night was a good array of comedians with various material. Pretty funny and each comedian didn't overlap material much so kept each set interesting. Of the most used content, it was about sobriety, some election stuff and LGBTQ+ relationships. There was also content on marriage, potty training, and neobabys. Notable guest comedians this night were Chris Delia, Jeff Dye, Jimmy Shin, and Mike Binder. Fun night out! read more

This is the flagship and you can feel the difference the moment you walk in. Jamie runs an incredibly tight operation and it shows in every part of the experience. From the flow at the door to the seating and the pacing of the show, everything is dialed in. The talent here is on another level. You get a mix of big names, working comics testing new material, and surprise drop ins that make every visit feel unique. The room has that classic comedy club energy where the crowd is fully locked in and the laughs keep coming. Service is smooth and professional without being distracting, and the two drink minimum is completely fair for a live show of this caliber. Prices are what you would expect for Hollywood and for the level of entertainment you are getting. What really makes this location stand out is what they do beyond the shows. The holiday meals and ongoing outreach for the homeless is something you do not see most venues doing and they have been consistent with it for years. It says a lot about the heart behind the business and makes supporting this place feel even better. If you want the full Laugh Factory experience this is the one. Iconic, well run, and always a guaranteed great night. read more

Laugh factory is a fun place to enjoy a comedy show. I highly recommend first entry tickets as they make sure you have good seats and can see the stage. They have a mandatory 2 item (drink, food, merch) purchase per person which I find a little odd considering how expensive each item is. Our service wasn't great, took 40 minutes to get drinks and food never came. But the server seemed very busy. Overall we had a great time with good laughs and will be back to hopefully enjoy the service more. read more

Over had a ball .....me n my fam and we sat in front row you know what that mean yup they got on our heads...

This place is a joke! Lots of jokes! Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday for the All Star Comedy show at 10 PM on Tuesday night. 6 Comedians and a comedian host. They were all good in their own ways, some better than others, one great. It's a pleasant place to see comedy. Because the early show ran late, they did not let us in until about 9:45 pm. The 10 pm show was about 2+ hours. With the 2 drink per person requirement plus admission fees expect to pay a minimum of $60 per person to see a show here. Bathrooms were fine, table service very good, clean place, organized seating, organized line, they checked our tickets while we were online waiting. Not very crowded that night so everyone got a table seat. I like it better here than the Comedy Store also in Hollywood because it's smaller, just one room, and less confusing at here at the Laugh Factory. But the best place to see comedy in the LA area is the Comedy & Magic Club in Hermosa Beach. read more

great place if you're a young sensitive comedian starting out. I've never performed there but it's nice that they let the staff handle hecklers in other comedy clubs the comedian does it but here they're all about protecting the comedian. if you're a heckler beware the staff has no tolerance and the comedians are still in development so they protect the fragile nature of the young artist. You will be asked to leave read more

I left before the show could even start. I got bounced around from 3 different tables to accommodate other parties. They kept throwing us literally wherever they could fit us & we ended up in a corner with our backs completely facing the stage. That was very unprofessional, uncomfortable, and in a sense degrading. I definitely want a refund. read more

I had a great time last night at the Laugh Factory! It's located on Sunset Boulevard and you can't miss it. I parked in the residential area and walked a few feet to the entrance. I paid for general admission and got in line around 30 minutes before the show. The staff were friendly and helpful. It never fails, I always get seated within the first three rows at comedy shows which is cool. I ordered a water and a peach sour which was tasty/strong. The stars of the show in my opinion were Ron G, Malik and Tip (T.I.) Harris! There was a nice balance of comedians overall and I'm glad I was able to make it. read more

Laugh Factory in Hollywood was really one of the best overall comedy clubs I have been to. From caliber of talent, to layout of the room and service levels of the waiters - it was such a great night out. We paid for "first entry" tickets and while it was a bit confusing outside until someone showed up to provide directions (the regular tickets go one direction and first entry the other way) it was great to have first choice of seats in what would be a sold out show. There is a two item minimum so just be prepared to spend the extra money (even if it's soda or bottled water) on top of your ticket price. The second show on the night we went wasn't sold out and they offered anyone who wanted to stay was able to stay with just another minimum purchase which was really nice! Can't wait to go back some day. read more

The hubby has always wanted to go to the Laugh Factory so this was epic for him. I was surprised that the tickets were so cheap at only $25! Our showing was at 7:45pm and the seats are first come first serve so we got there around 7pm and grabbed a super comfy booth seat for us and our friends. I didn't get our servers name, but she was awesome! We loaded up on the quesadillas and they were delicious! They had some sort of peppers in them which gave it a different but unique flavor. We also tried the chips and salsa which were nice and spicy but damn delicious! The 4 comedians were good with some of never heard of but funny nonetheless , but our headliner of the evening was Dane Cook. We will definitely be returning soon! read more

Laugh Factory - Heck YEAH! - Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A literal waste of my time. The place is small and cramped. Paying extra for first come chairs was a SCAM. I would have been more comfortable standing the entire time. Food selection was close to nothing. Pizza, salad or bread bites. Pizza was TERRIBLE and burnt for 7$ a slice. 10$ for a water bottle (2 drink requirement on top of purchasing tickets). As for the actual show, 3 different performers ran with the same punch line the ENTIRE SHOW. Jokes about only one topic 90% of the show. To say the least, this was the #1 worst thing I've ever done with my time. 18$ for valet in case anyone is curious. read more
