My boyfriend and I visited this comedy club and it really was tiny! I would recommend coming early enough to make sure you have a comfy seat, as it really is small! The place was full and the atmosphere was great. The free pizza was from supermacs along with sausages and wedges (my boyfriend and I are vegan and were delighted to see wedges!) The host was absolutely hilarious, along with all the acts. Great value!

Reviewed By GregLA2014 - Los Angeles, United States
Rab has always been a good story teller. I've been saying that since I saw him first perform in the Cellar Bar in 2009. But in the intervening decade Rab has grown tremendously as a storyteller. The stories he chose fore the evening about Reverend Solace and Lord Solace (I'm pretty sure I don't have the names right) were absolutely on point. Not only were they great stories, they reflected the current state of the world. And the way Rab told the stories was fabulous, interacting with the audience, hash tagging the stories, even incorporating disruptive elements from the audience into the narrative. It's no wonder the place was packed and standing room only. If you want to experience another side of Irish Culture, you really need to see Rab Fulton at the Crane Bar.
