Reviews for Helium Comedy Club in Philadelphia, PA
Had a great time. They had a pretty decent selection of for items and drinks. The club is in good shape. The staff is good. The... headliner; Brad Williams, was absolutely funny (He's a Little Person). I would definitely go back Read more
I saw Jon Polar Bear Gonzales there last week and it was awesome!!!, Hank the bartender was my favorite person there. So... gorgeous and so personable. The wait staff was great too. Zero complaints. Would definitely attend another event there. Read more
First I was very concerned for the safety of myself & guests as we were packed on top of each other not even enough room to pass... between seats... thank goodness no emergency occured as there was no immediate way of escape. Secondly our drinks literallytasted like water not cool if there is a two drink minimum per perso... I know we would not mind socializing and having a goodtime but for $14/drink the flavor should not be WATER!!! Also our food was cold - how can you mess up finger food. ???? Read more
Enjoyed a hilarious night at Helium Comedy Club this past week. The 3 openers were all hilarious during their sets and the... headliner, Ryan Sickler, finished it out strong. As for the venue itself. Comedy clubs of this size typically have fairly closeseating. We paid for general admission and were placed at a small table. Fortunately, that night their weren't so many gueststhat we had to share a table otherwise fit for 2 people with another couple. It probably wouldn't feel so bad during the show,but eating would be cramped. Thankfully we didn't have to cross that bridge. The food and drink were very good. The pizza wasrecommended and the pepperoni pizza that I ordered and botched the picture of was extremely good; much better than I thought itwould be. My girlfriend got the chicken fingers with fries which were not the best but not terrible. The drinks we got - PeachPalmer & Blueberry Lemonade - were both strong yet delicious. Most items were about $10-15, so expect to pay about 50 if youjust do the minimum 2 item per person. The service was also very welcoming from everyone we interacted with. Will definitelyreturn for another night of laughs. Read more
Was able to contact friendly agent on chat ahead to request accessible seating for my myself and birthday guests which was... conveniently fulfilled when we arrived. She answered all my questions patiently. Stage room, Room, lobby and restrooms wereclean and spacious. I believe there is a small bar that does serve alcohol outside main area. It is The place had airconditioning and we sat at small tables on raised back row where the cameras were set up but was fine. It is dark and I slippedon step walking so be careful. Below us was main floor where they have both banquette and individual tables set up. Servers comearound for food and drink orders. And menu is pretty decent than what I was expecting. Was packed show and I was wearing maskbut not sure that made a huge difference if you're concerned about social distancing this might not be the indoor venue for youbecause there's no window ventilation and usually show is 1.5-2 hours.

This was my first visit and the overall experience was pleasant. The servers were fast, friendly and efficient in bringing... food/drinks. I recommend arriving early and remember there is a 2 item minimum purchase in the showroom. Read more
awesome club. a little smaller than most clubs but it makes the show all the better. They require you (as of 2022-May) to order... two things off their menu which is alright I guess (don't come in full from a dinner). Their food isn't bad at all. Read more
We came in for the late (10pm) show and there was one at 7:30 as well (one of my all time faves, Christopher Titus!). I'm not... sure if that's why admission into the showroom was such a mess, maybe this didn't happen during the earlier show...but no oneseemed to know where they were supposed to be standing (reserved versus general admission) in order to enter the showroom. Therewas no signage anywhere indicating where to queue up, and there's no intercom or PA system. So the instructions that the staffwere shouting to the patrons were only heard by about half of us. The showroom is moderately sized, a nice intimate space thatholds - I believe - 250 people. We were 3 rows back with reserved seating that I purchased almost 3 months in advance. So Ithink if you want front row, you've gotta jump on those tickets right away. The food and beverages were quite good. Weespecially enjoyed the pizza. They are "personal-sized" BUT I'd say one pizza could feed 2 if you're getting other munchies withit (like the sampler platter, which is mostly fries with 2-4 of each of the other included items). I would return for someone IREALLY wanted to see, but because of the crowd handling, I don't think I would frequent this establishment. Read more
