  We went there last Saturday for my daughters birthday. It is a small venue - seats about 80-90 - but the quality of the acts was first class. I haven't laughed so much for ages. Beats Jongleurs hands down. Also they had a bar in the room which meant you could easily get a drink.I would unreservedly reccomend it.

  I have been to the Corner Store for their Funnyside comedy (downstairs) 3-4 times and typically, I have a sore stomach the day after... from all the belly-laughing. I have come here with a large group or with 1-2 others and have had loads of fun!The food that they serve fills a hole more than tickles the tastebuds - but for a comedy night out, that suited my needs.Lineups vary by night (typically quite an internationally diverse set) - you can go to their website (the comedy club is called Funnyside), check out the programme, and decide which night appeals. You can book online in advance, which is what I would recommend as many of their shows sell out. The main bar, above the comedy club, is quite loud and boisterous.. and very crowded. I'd recommend that you go straight to the comedy when the doors open if you're looking for a little more relaxed envirnment.

  I had my Hen night at the Funny Side, we ate upstairs at the Corner Store. It took an hour to be served our food and we had 15 minutes to eat it before the comedy show started. I had made the restaurant staff aware that we were booking both and they advised us it would be ok. We just about got to eat our main course - no time for desert. They had ran out of fish, chicken and cheese (all by 6pm) - the staff got our drinks wrong and one of my friends meals wasn't put on the order so she got given a bowl of chips.Comedy show was brilliant - no probs with going back there. Then we went back upstairs for a few more drinks and decided to have some shots. We were left waiting at the bar for almost 15 minutes whilst they served everyone else because they couldn't find the person who knew how to do the shots!! How stupid! So we ordered a cocktail and left.I would def go back to the comedy club, but I would never eat or drink in the Corner Store ever again. They can just about speak English too!

  This really is the best comedy club in London - in fact I think they've even won an award that says so. I've lost track of how many friends I've recommended this place to and they've all loved it too. Great for a fun evening for couples or for groups, or even go on your own, its got such a friendly vibe you won't feel out of place.The club gets great acts (they had Harry Hill on last week at a regular show - I mean it wasn't a special or anything) and its SO much better than the big nasty beer-on-the-floor venues most people go to. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

  Wow! This IS the best comedy club in London - I can't believe its on here already, I thought I was going to be the first to review it! Why do I like it? Well mainly because The Funny Side always gets the best acts on the circuit, the same you'd see at the big impersonal 400-people-crammed-in-a-room venues but it only seats 70 and you feel like you're at a secret gig. The venue does pretty tasty nosh too.Highly recommended

  The Funny Side... Of Covent Garden is a thrice weekly comedy club which is fantastic, its in the basement of The Cornerstore Pub which is just up from where "The Lion King" is on. Its not as big as The Comedy Store but what it loses in size it makes up for in personality. Have been several times and its become my favourite club in London - the bills are varied and often as good as you'd see at a bigger club. They have their own bar there and you can order food and eat at your table while watching the show. There's even a joke competition with the chance to win a bottle of bubbly!!
