Reviews for The Laugh Shop in Calgary, AB
1st time there to watch Jay Pharaoh. When we arrived, we were escorted to our seats and was greeted by our server right away. ... The food was alright and decently priced. Overall, it was a good experience. Read more
It's a fun place to go for a laugh but dont expect to get served, unless you are buying alcohol. I ordered a drink... (non-alcoholic) with the rest of our table and everyone's drink comes but mine, so I reminded the waitress and ask nicely forher to grab it... She came back a few times with refills and drinks for everyone at our table, except me and then proceeded toignore my presence completely, I eventually got up and poured my own water. The comedians were alright, I might go back for alaugh, but nothing else. *If you have any kind of dietary concerns or restrictions, eat before attending a show.

Although the comedians and local talent are fine, the service at this venue is awful. The hosts, managers, and wait staff were... all quite rude, impersonable, and made us feel like we were inconveniencing them by being there. Food is mediocre. Prices areabout average. I understand that you go there for the comics and the entertainment, but the overall customer experience isusually quite dissapointing. Read more
Went for a date night to see Josh Wolf. It was absolutely packed and the staff did an incredible job getting drinks and food to... everyone. Had an amazing time!! I highly recommend this place for a night out. Read more
I loved the show there Josh Wolf was headlining,the venue looked freshly painted, chairs were only OK, thankfully the show was... only one and a half hours. Some things not up to my standards was the show was sold out and the way the chairs and small tableswere set up you definitely got VERY personal with the people around you (rubbing shoulders and chairs)you would walk out ofthere with a crick in your neck from constantly looking over your shoulder to the stage. The service was polite and friendly butthe speed was totally sub par. I suggest if your going to have your plans to order, set up LONG before you enter the venue oryou might not get yours, seems like a lottery to get timely service.A 6 out of 10 in my opinion.

Great experience.. my first time felt great. I was actually pretty surprised how decent the comedians were. They didn't make me... resonate with their topics but still fair. I am excited for more Read more
My significant other and I were invited to attend this event with another couple. It was a blast to say the least! We were... escorted to the front of the line and were seated at the stage. We had a super friendly waitress who took good care of usthroughout the entire show. The headliner, TJ Miller, was fantastic. He showed his true professionalism when his microphonequit and he had to improvise while the staff were quickly supplying a replacement mic for him. He kept the audience entertainedand didn't miss a beat. The Blackfoot Inn is "World Class" in my opinion. It has so many great things to offer from finedining to swimming pools and comfy accommodation. Great show, great venue. This wasn't our first time and we'll be back manytimes. Highly recommended!

Oh wow this place was a blast. Went on amateur night and it was still fantastic. Good venue but the staff are incredible. The... wait staff are very attentive even when nearly invisible during a performance. Read more
