The Comedy Arena

I went on an improv night when the Not About Bears troupe had a show and had a blast! I had only planned to go for a short amount of time to support a friend but I ended up staying until the end.Not About Bears was so good, and everyone else who participated did a great job. I laughed so much! Everyone was so friendly and I felt very welcomed as a first timer. It's a trek for me from Carrollton but I would totally go again.

Free parking in the garage next door, cheap tickets, decent food, lots of laughs!I came with some acquaintances to support one of the improv performers. The emcee did a fantastic job involving the audience by asking for categories that helped setup the scenes. The troupe of performers were quite entertaining and thought quickly on their feet. The waitress stopped by our table numerous times throughout the show delivering drinks and food. I had the "Surprise Me" and a vegetable flatbread. Both were quite good. The flatbread was served piping hot. Even though this place is further away than I like to drive, I would seriously consider rkknneturning to see another show.

This is my go to comedy club in the Dallas area. Great classes... Open mic night on Tuesdays at 7:00.. Top notch comedians & openers. Late night Kareoke on Fridays. Full bar. Great food. Fantastic staff and owners. I always feel welcome and have a great time.

We (two couples) went there for a Veteran's Day show on a Saturday night. All (almost) of the comedians were Vets. Fabulous cozy venue and very funny show. Drinks were spot on and the service was great. The food was reasonable and good. Will definitely return!

Couldn't get in the show. Sat in the bar area and not one staff member offered the menu or service. Just know racism still exists here‼

Great comedy, great atmosphere, great night out! If you're anywhere in McKinney and you want somewhere to go on a weekday or weekend night, you need to stop by. There is a bar downstairs and the atmosphere is super casual and welcoming. If you want to see a show on a particular night, I recommend booking online ahead of time.

Tickets were reasonable in price, however pay attention if purchasing them in advance online because a $10 donation is automatically added to your cart. You are able to select the back button and go back to take it off. We attended comedy sports which is like an amateur Who's Line is it Anyway kind of show. Heads up there was very young children there and the show is family friendly. It had its funny moments but I think if I go again it will be for one of their stand up shows. Upstairs was a little warm and youre seated very close together. Would have been more comfortable with either better AC or some fans. Show was an hour long. There is a two drink/item minimum for each person. Limited menu and as I'm gluten free I was unable to order any food. The drinks were very reasonably priced. Wine was $8. If you order downstairs you're told you don't need to worry about closing the tab, which I found out upstairs is kind of a lie to ensure they get a 20% tip. If you don't close your tab they add 20% for their tip. While this wasn't a huge deal for me bc I was going to leave 20% anyways, I think it is wrong that I was told I didn't need to close it when I asked directly after my purchase. That coupled with the automatic $10 donation add on just makes me think there are some questionable businesses practices going on. Overall an okay evening just not a five star experience.

Amazing venue!!! We came this evening to see Peter Antoniou. I've been to many comedy venues and the service here was amazing and such a intimate setting everyone felt part of the show! We will definitely be back!!

Great place I never knew was here. Definitely a hidden gem with the ambiance of the place. I would def recommend as it is a nice night out on the town

Absolutely the best place to watch and experience comedy in McKinney, Tx. Great shows and amazing staff! Best place to eat and drink!
