    The venue lends itself really well to a comedy night. I go with friends regularly and there's always something new and fresh and a great energy in the room. There's nowhere else in Dublin consistently hosting a proper comedy night of this quality. The full package

    First time in Ireland of course I gotta go to a Comedy show. Loved it some parts were lost to me not being a Native or maybe it was the drinks. Either way the comics were hilarious on a scale of 1-10 id say its not too bad.

    Always a great show in this interesting venue. Diverse array of top-notch comedians each night, intimate setting, great fun. Best in Dublin.

    Great source of entertainment for the price you pay. I was visiting for a week in Dublin and was able to enjoy one of the shows. The night I was there they had 5 comedians. I’d say 3 of the 5 were enjoyable and two were cringe worthy. Either way you’ll get your money worth and have a good time. Bathrooms are…. Not great. Plan on finding one before you arrive. That’s more on the bar though than the comedy club.

    Nice comedy club, a bit of a covid risk due to how close everyone is. The barman also tried to fleece me by charging for the free drink you get with entry and turning the card machine at an odd angle so I couldn't see what it was. So 5 stars for the event and comedians and 1 star for venue and barman.

    First time at a comedy show and it was unreal. I never stopped laughing, the entire environment was so friendly and would 100% recommend everyone to go to at least one of these shows. Damo is a top class host and on the way to tell everyone i know how good this place was , just go.

    Brilliant, provocative, tearing rolling down my cheeks kinda funny. One of the best stand ups I’ve been and not at all corny. Will definitely come back again!

    What a show! The host himself was hilarious, and all the comedians were truly amazing: Involving the crowd on a genius way, making us all feel like attending a private party with old friends. A shabby shack, but the atmosphere! 15€ is a robbery - from the club and their comedians! A gem!

    Yesterdays gig was so good we literally came back the next day! The host alone could do a whole show because he's so funny! Definitely worth a visit

    A good night out with 3 funny comedians and a very capable compare in Ed Mularky. Shame the audience were immature and tried to wrong-foot the acts, but as seasoned pros they handled the heckles well. A good night out and great value for money- would definitely try to see comedy again when in Dublin!

    A great night in Dublin! 💝 I may have gotten made fun of (lightly, mostly lovingly) by some comedians but it was a fantastic evening out with a great crowd. Lots of craic. Just ask Barry from Tallaght.

    Awesome time! Nice little cozy room tucked away. Comics were class and made the very best out of a hilariously annoying heckler situation. Great atmosphere the entire night. Definitely will come back for a good time.

    Brilliant night had at the Craic Den in Workman’s! Australian host was unreal and all four acts were funny in their own way. I couldn’t recommend it more.

    Get yourself a ticket to see Craic Den comedy club - hilarious local comedians and great venue. They do comedy nights most days of the week and they have a different line up every week. Highly recommended for a fun night out in Dublin 🙌

    Set in The Workman's club, is the perfect intimate venue to see and hear real Irish comedy. We laughed from start to finish. Host (Damo) was great, got the room going and kept the comics going. Totally be back again.

    Random popping in upstairs earlier in the day for some cocktails led to us returning to enjoy a brilliant night downstairs. All the acts were great along with hilarious and energetic host @damianclark

    Visiting from the USA and had an incredible time at the Craic Den! Made some friends, celebrated our anniversary, and watched an AMAZING set. Highly recommend, especially if you're just here to visit. You get much more than your money's worth.

  • 5/5 Adam F. 3 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    I've been coming here regularly for a few years now. As always with comedy it's hit or miss, but regardless of the lineup I've always had a fantastic time and I will keep coming back here regularly. A great time and great value!

  • 5/5 Carlos García A. 1 year ago on Google
    As a Spanish native, this is one of the greatest live shows I’ve ever been to. Great performance by all the comedians.

  • 5/5 Deqa M. 2 years ago on Google
    First time at this comedy gig and it's hilarious! Will definitely be a regular here. Great atmosphere, funny sets and the crowd are great craic. 10/10 would recommend :)

  • 5/5 J. H. 2 years ago on Google
    Great vibe and great people. 10/10 would recommend for a good laugh. Went here for my first ever comedy show and had a really good time!

  • 4/5 Sarah O. 7 months ago on Google
    Well worth the money, something great to have on mid week because there's not much! Last nights show was a bit of a mix, host was brilliant and the final comedian on had our faces hurting from laughter love a bit of dark edgy humour which he hit more than the others, his part on cancel culture was brilliant and so true so major respect there, the other two weren't great but that could have been just the wrong audience for their type of jokes! Thanks guys, will be back for sure!

  • 5/5 Nichola M. 7 months ago on Google
    Have been to the Craic Den a few times and have never been disappointed! The staff and comedians are so friendly and welcoming upon arrival. The comedians are always excellent, with great pieces to leave you belly laughing. Great seeing a mixture of people performing. Also love the intimate setting, really makes a great night!

  • 5/5 Mags M. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent night of comedy Tuesday 11 October. Damo, Eddie ,Gar, Duane, Spillane and Mcsavage were funny and normally men aren't funny. Highly recommended. Thank me later. Mags

  • 5/5 Padraig M. 1 year ago on Google
    I'd seen Eddie live before and had seen the virgin media show too, but the live experience was much better than my wildest dreams. I had a guy splitting side of laughing and will definitely be back

  • 5/5 Daragh M. 2 years ago on Google

    Best night out in years! All the craic!

    Second time here and will be back! Always a great lineup and a good time. As a Canadian can say I appreciate Irish humour even more.

  • 5/5 Kike Z. 1 year ago on Google
    I recommend it 100% I've been there with some friends. Those laughs while you drink your Guinness pint it's priceless! The location is just perfect, and all stand-ups were great. Thank you, Eddie!!

    Love this comedy club! They always have an amazing line up of top class comedians for such a cheap price and it’s in one of my favourite pubs in Dublin too. Will be back many times no doubt!

  • 5/5 Donal B. 2 years ago on Google
    Brilliant club, with tickets less than €10 to go in and laugh your head off, you really cant go wrong. Shows still running amid latest restrictions too, (comedy & craic is essential).

👍👍 Banger pub, proper old mans Irish hidden away type place. Solid music playing, crowd was lively, drinks were a great price which is what got me into the place in the first place. Guiness was gorgeous, I'll be back there again soon no doubt.
