Part of the famous Comedy Cellar. No phones or smart watches allowed until the show ends, but you'll keep them in a sealed envelope during the show. Our show lasted for almost two hours with six different comedians on stage. The basement room fitted about 200 people, but make sure to reserve your tickets in advance. The cover charge of $14 per person was added to the minimum order of two items per person, so you can expect to spend around $30 per person for your visit.

Cozy, basement comedy club with a good view of the small stage from just about any seat or table. We went on a Sunday and all three stand-up comics plus the MC were hilarious. We just got drinks but many people were having appetizers as well.

I cannot figure out the website. I want to see live music, but I don't know if there are any live shows, when they are, and how to make a reservation.

There is no more live music at the Village Underground. Only stand up comedy.

Can an 18 year old hop on the open mic for some jokes even though he lost his wallet with ID and SSN a week before? 😂

If I have a comedy show reservation for 5 people, would it be acceptable to arrive with 1 extra person, 6 total?

Alex Schwartz | Oct 7, 2019
Joshua Tam | Oct 7, 2019

You need a reservation for the amount you bring. It will determine how they set up for the shows. I would call them or just make another reservation. They open the show to anyone outside to fill seats that don't get reserved.

Kamisa Holmes | Oct 7, 2018
Chad | Oct 7, 2018

Comedy Sadly the days of solid live music at the VU being a show stopper on Thursday, Fri and Saturday, are over. That band was by far one of the best bands ive seen in nyc. Wish they'd bring that back... Id happily pay a slightly higher entrance fee to see that come back...

what music do you play ? every day ?

Teia Teona | Oct 7, 2018
Joyce Covington | Oct 7, 2018

A little bit of everything! They do live bands when there are shows in the basement, which is outstanding! First floor has 2 sides. DJ in the Moroccan room playing all genres to keep ur feet tapping while enjoying the comfy chairs. The bar/pool room play all the latest, while the video plays on flat screens. Great spot, u won't be disappointed!

Al Varian | Oct 7, 2018
