The fact that they often bring in great comedians is the only reason they get an extra star. Other than that it was a one star experience. They have a two item minimum order, so two drinks, or drink and some food. Because of this we did not seek dinner before hand, so we were hungry. Despite the fact we were one of the first groups seated. Everyone else's order was taken around us, but they did not come get our order until way after the headliner started. It took long enough for our drinks to arrive, and I assumed she would be returning with our food. Well no! In fact it was not until she showed up with our bill she realized we still didn't have our food. The show was more than half over at this point. But the time our food did finally come out. The show was almost over. We did not have enough time to finish eating before the show ended, and they were kicking us out. To conclude.. expect a great show, but not service. You are cattle stacked into an overcrowded room. Forced to buy food and drinks that come too late to enjoy.

Very cute night at the club. Highly recommend have great food and drinks options. Definitely would go back

The show we went to on a Saturday night had a great turn out and the acts were definitely entertaining. However, be warned that if you come even a few min before the show starts you are asked to wait downstairs in a bar area (which does NOT count towards the two item minimum), then when they call the show, everyone rushes for the stairs in disarray. Very absurd process. We figured it’s a minor nuisance for most people but still not a tasteful marketing tactic…

I enjoyed a show with my wife and we were pleased the overall experience was positive. Waiting outside on a hot day is not the best way to begin the appreciation of the venue. Some shade for those in queue would be a star-earner for some.

A great comedy venue in downtown Raleigh. This was one of the last shows in their old location. Good service, strong drinks, classic comedy venue vibes.

I went to see Deon Cole! I would have given them a 5 star, if they would have kept the air on. Turned it off as soon as show started. The fries are good tho, don't recommend the chicken fingers basket. It was not chicken over cooked. Everyone I was with was cooked same. NO CHICKEN

Love Goodnights! They have a great variety of comedians from all walks of life. We just saw Randy Feltface, the show was hilarious! The headliner shows are the best, but they also have amateur nights if you're looking for a cheaper option. The tickets are not crazy expensive though. The old location was really charming, but the temporary location at the old K&W is working really well. I love comedy and I am so glad Raleigh has a place like this. Highly recommend!

Overall a fun place. I was expecting food served inside/delivered to your table but it's (different nightly?) food trucks. The email I received with the ticket numbers included a menu, but I believe thats no longer valid. Minor inconvenience as we were expecting to eat here but we ended up finding a great restaurant that was still open after the show. Seating arrangements are above average compared to other venues I've been to - there's actually space to get up and use the bathroom or whatever without inconveniencing at least 30 people and the chairs are comfortable. Drink prices are SKY HIGH. *Wooo* My lord. 2 people, 3 double mixed drinks, over $60. I paid less for the show. Now for why the star was removed - the first 2 drinks came out almost half way through the show. The third drink came almost at the end. Come on now, if we wanted to have some drinks at the end of the show we would've waited to get home or gone to a place after that doesn't charge $16+ per drink.

I always visit this place when I’m in ATL!!! There’s no place like it!! The portion sizes are HUGE!! Feel free to share plates with family and friends! The bread is delicious and the service is amazing! We typically get the fish platter, it has shrimp, and 2 different kinds of fish, hush puppies, Fries and whatever else you can think of!!! Please go!! 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

All in all, this was a great date night! The size of this place is perfect! Small enough to still feel connect to the entertainment but not too small that you feel like you HAVE to react to them to keep the show going haha we did not get reserved seating and we were placed in the back, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The wait staff had great timing! They came around and got our drink and food order. It came out very timely as well! We had the mozzarella sticks and pretzel bites. Both were crispy and bar quality so I had no complaints :) The drinks were tasty too! (Though we already had a buzz going prior to arrival so I cannot speak on the alcohol strength)

First time at Goodnights Comedy Club. I loved the bar setup. It reminded me of old 90’s vibes or underground bars. The inside is circular and tightly spaced if crowded. The bathrooms were clean and the staff was friendly. I had the Suga Bear Drink and Barbie Malibu drink

All the great things the previous location had plus better parking. Also, I appreciate that the two-item minimum does not have to be alcohol. I'm not always in the mood for a drink, so snacks are a nice option. Their hummus was incredible - topped with roasted garlic, which I love - and the chicken strips must be good because roughly 90% of patrons ordered them. Much of the billed comic's material was not to my taste, but he had his moments and the two opening acts I thought were hilarious. We had a large group for a birthday outing, so we had reserved seating. If I were going with one other person, I'd go with general admission. There's not a bad seat in the house.

I have been several times. The comedians have been great! The atmosphere could be better. The tables/chairs are crowded into the space, and they are small. I think they should consider theater style seating like Cine Bistro for more comfort. Great entertainment though!

Let me tell you, eat before you come here. The menu has jokes, Charlie goodnights will have you saying goodnight to your wallet. You are required to get two items off the menu when you get tickets. In other words…. Run me my money. 12$ chicken bites and 10$ chips and queso. I get more food my money at the movie theater. What happened Charlie? Ranch wasn’t even hidden valley.

Saw Samuel Comroe and other comedians and had a blast. The drink pictured is a Sour Gummy Bear, it's one of the popular drinks. I also had Mozzarella Sticks 😋

Great new venue with good food and drinks and plenty of space. Seating near the back can hear kitchen noises and talking when kitchen doors open but it wasn't too bad. Employees worked really hard and worked well together. Booking tickets is very easy, make sure to book directly with the club because I saw tickets on other sites for 5 times as much.

The staff were very friendly, and they have a bar area that you can wait in before the showroom doors open. NOTE: There is a 2 item per person purchase minimum in the showroom, and items purchased in the bar DO NOT count towards this. It is not a big place and it didn't look to me like there was really a bad seat in the house (unless maybe when it's really crowded, then I could see it getting a little uncomfortable). The menu is not big, but it seems to have a little something for everyone, and prices are about the same as you find everywhere else. They also have giveaways. My husband won, and it included 2 free tickets to a future show, so that's really cool. All in all, I'd say it was a great experience, and we look forward to going back again.

Love the new location. Staff is great, they make you feel like a VIP. Drinks were very good. The paint nights are an awesome deal, do it!

We went 2 shows of Samuel Comroe, James Frey and another comedian. The club is spacious, well lit and clean! The staff are very helpful and friendly! The servers checked on us often to see if we needed anything! The food was delicious!

Experience was great, comedy show was funny in my opinion. But overall was a really good night. Drinks were good . People were super nice. My only personal opinion is that the hygiene didn't look that clean but it might just be me since it was low light all trough out. Don't miss out though, It was a good night with lots of laughs.

It was a great show. I really enjoyed myself. The new building looks great...the food came out quick

We had a fun night out in Raleigh Charlie Goodnights new location. The venue is nice, service was great, & the comedian that night was pretty good. Parking is a little harder here. Overall good though.

Closer to 4.5 really. The new location seems like it will be great for future events. The show we saw had great comedians out of NYC, and we had a great time! The drinks were on the level of what you would expect in the area price-wise. I did not try the food this time, but our friends got a few appetizers, and they seemed to be good. The staff was helpful, easy to interact with, and friendly. They are still working out a few little kinks at the new location. We had a headliner change, and the AC condensation was dripping in the main seating area (not on anyone, it was just a little distracting), but the venue did comp us $10 each towards our food and drinks as a courtesy for the change which I thought was cool. I expect this review to upgrade to a five-star review next time I visit, and we will be returning.

I love the new location. I haven't gone in a few years so I was pleasantly surprised when GPS took me to a different location with restaurants and other things to do, if you catch an early show. The comedians have always been wonderful. This is a great date night experience! Highly recommend giving it a go!

First time here and was totally impressed. The space is new and nice, staff from bouncers to servers were excellent, the layout made it so there are no bad views, and the cocktails were legit and interesting. Will definitely be back.

This was the first show I have ever seen in my 34 years of life and it didn’t disappoint! I had so much fun seeing Shayne Smith preform live. It was crowded and we where seated very close to other people! I didn’t mind though the atmosphere was great and it was a very chill crowd! Wonderful time

Went to see Robyn Schall last night! She was fantastic! Club is just a temporary location while the new one is being built. It was a good setup, and the staff was excellent. Everyone from the front door to the ladies who were serving was so friendly and pleasant. A drink menu was available, and you could bring your own snacks. Plus, I got to meet Robyn afterward!

Love the comedians.. but why does the staff seem so miserable? Dude at the box office was rude to a lady in front of me. Dude seating us acted like we were putting him out. I'm coming back because the acts are good as well as the drinks. Hope the staff is in a better mood. If they are I will update my review.

Great night!! All three guys last night were funny as hell! Shapel Lacey worked the crowd and kept it rolling. Waitstaff did great! The guy at will call welcomed us and shared information. We drove 1 1/2 hours and we will plan another trip soon.

Interesting place. Went to see J.R. De Guzman. Comedy was great, service was pretty quick and somehow organized for the amount of people in the place. The only thing is how dark it is in the back of the audience. Maybe placing a small, fake candle on the tables to give some lighting would be a decent idea, but having to take out your phone for lighting really takes away from the ambience and distracts you and others from the show.

First time here, overall great place. Definitely come early to get in line to get a good seat. Food/drinks was decent nothing to wow over but my overall experience was great. It was a little hot too me because the amount people in that small space. I will definitely be back!

Awesome place! The vibes were great. I laughed to tears the whole evening. The staff were very polite and the drinks were great. The spinach dip was really good and hot. Super quick service and the comedian Joe Gatto was the greatest. We are huge fans and love a good laugh. We will definitely be coming back.

First time visit, really enjoyed the venue. Ordered the sampler, it was a lot of food and was pretty good. The main room is just the right size... small but not too small. I ordered reserved seats and was in the second row. Would not hesitate to see another show here.

This was our first visit to Goodnights and we had a great time. The atmosphere, comedians, servers, food and drinks were all fantastic. I give Goodnights my strongest recommendation.

Great show at Goodnights on Friday! Pleasantly surprised, the food and drinks were great. Mediterranean plate, fried pickles and Spinach Dip. Moscow Mule and the drink made with Titos. 5 stars because of the show/food and show started timely. Meals were served upstairs which gives more of a Dinner Theater atmosphere. Seating was OK. Arrived early, 2 and 4 person seating. Not everyone had a table. I wish the owners would put some cash into upkeep. A little touching up would do wonders.

**Need to explain their wait in line system better** They were running behind due to a meet and greet with the comedian. So we were told they were going to let people in at a certain time. So, we tried to go in at that time but did not let in til 40 minutes later. They also should have explained that they call people waiting in the bar area first considering we lost our spot because we were told we would be let in and left the bar area to wait at the door, like we were told to do.

Great time here on Saturday night. Came to see Brian Posehn and he was hilarious and the comedian that opened for him was just as funny and I hate that I missed his name because I would pay just to see him. Club is intimate but staff were very friendly and accommodating. I paid a little extra like literally $5 to have reserved seating and it was definitely worth it. We had our own little two top. We did not eat but customers around had food and it looked good. We just had a couple beers which were cold, but mixed drinks also looked great and prices were on par for bar around $11 and generous. They really have their system worked out...you have to pick up tickets when you get there but it moved like clock work and despite being a smaller venue, parking was easy and when show was finished they got you out the door, into your car and on the road in like 5 minutes. Very professional. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks for a wonderful evening of laughter.

August 15 Thank you so much for our host, Ryan Davis who headlined and Marcus for your comedic talent. I have not laughed so hard since seeing Tony Rock, Jordan Rock and others back in March at your venue. I appreciated the free tickets for the night. Drinks and food were delicious. I have no suggestions for improvements. Once doors opened, it took a matters of minutes to be seated. I will definitely return.

I've never been disappointed at Goodnights! The food is surprisingly good for a comedy club and the drinks are great too. I highly recommend the Dirty Shirley, mozz sticks, and pretzel bites.

I thought the club was very nice. I ordered food, and when it came, the food was hot and fresh. The drinks were pretty good. For me, the size of the club was just right.... Michael Blackson was off the chain, and even his headliner Kendall was very funny. Had a great time and would definitely go back

Went to see Noel Miller here and the place is great! The drinks are delicious, the staff are awesome, and the club itself has a good atmosphere. My only complaint was that it was packed tight, but the show was sold out and even then we didn't have to wait super long to be seated and we were fairly taken care of. So if you like good drinks and comedy shows this place is a must-see!
