Union Hall is one of those classic Brooklyn spots that just feels good the second you walk in. The…read morelocation is great, the drinks are solid, and it has that older New York, cozy-but-lively vibe that's getting harder to find these days. They've only got two bocce lanes, so just a heads up, if it's a busier night or you're going during peak hours, you might be waiting a bit. But on normal weeknights, it's totally doable to walk in, grab a drink, and play without any stress. It's very laid-back in the best way. Downstairs, they host comedy shows and other performances, which makes it such a fun multipurpose hangout. People usually grab a drink and chill upstairs while waiting for their show to start, and it creates this really nice, social energy without feeling chaotic. Overall, Union Hall is a quaint neighborhood staple, great drinks, fun games, and a little bit of that old-school local charm. Perfect for a casual night out or something a little different from the usual bar scene.

My wife and I attended Eastville Comedy Club last night, and the experience was mixed…read more First, I want to say the service was good. We were greeted by the bartender when we came in, and he took our drink orders right away. My wife really enjoyed her drink and said it was amazing. I also thought my drink tasted good, but it was very weak and mostly tasted like ginger beer/soda. Still, the flavor was good, and the service itself was friendly. The comedy experience, however, left me feeling uncomfortable. When we walked in, one comedian was already on stage, and the timing felt awkward. It seemed like he may have been in the middle of a joke involving melanated people, because when we entered he reacted by saying something like "perfect timing" or "horrible timing," and the crowd laughed. In the moment, I didn't fully process it, but afterward it made me wonder if we had walked in during a joke where people like us were the target. We were seated in the front row, right in the middle, but during the following performances I felt strangely ignored by some of the comedians. I noticed very little eye contact with me, even though they appeared to engage with other people in the room. I understand that comedians may not make eye contact with every person, and I'm not saying I know anyone's intentions, but as one of the only melanated couples in the audience, the overall feeling was uncomfortable and somewhat alienating. One performer also wore lightning-bolt-shaped earrings, which stood out to me because that type of imagery can resemble symbols associated with hate groups or extremist history. I don't know if that was intentional or just a fashion choice, but given the rest of how I was already feeling, it added to the discomfort. We ended up leaving early after a few comedians because the seats were uncomfortable and the overall vibe just didn't feel welcoming to us. I wanted to enjoy the show, and there were moments where I laughed, but I couldn't shake the feeling that we were not really being included in the room. Overall, the staff/service and drinks were good, but the comedy experience itself left us feeling uncomfortable enough that we decided not to stay for the full show.

You can't beat the price either. You'll see some of the same comics from the big clubs for a fraction of the price and there aren't any drink minimums, however, the drink prices are also great so if you're like me you'll have 2 or 3 anyway.

The showroom is in the back and is small & dark which is perfect for a comedy club. There's also a small sitting / waiting area up front that's very cozy & welcoming with additional seating out front for nicer weather / smoking I presume. No bad sight or sound anywhere in this main showroom so that's a plus. Seats about 30 to 40 if I had to guess. It's also run by Comedians so it's pretty much the best vibes you can get for a comedy club. Highly recommended for a fun night out!
