This place is super neat. Its honest local and very interesting. We went to improv night and it was very relaxed and I was laughing all night. Great spot for a date night or just a good time with friends View all feedback.
What Denise Maier doesn't like about Penguin's Comedy Club:
Since it 's the only comedy club in Cedar Rapids, it 's also the best : , but the setting is rather run down and crowded. Bar service in between acts is overwhelmed by customers. View all feedback.
Another Midwest gem of a comedy club Slobbering John Melendez claims to have headloined. As usual, he went on stage with his classic uniform of worn out jeans and a black t shirt to hide his moobs and love handles. Complete with awkward hand placement in and out of his pockets or crossing his arms to cover his gross body. You can tell he isn't comfortable on stage in his own grey skin. The act has been the same for 25+ years...he brags about knowing the Kardashians, asking celebrities nobody remembers insulting questions, dead names Caitlyn Jenner and then talks about how awesome Jay Leno was for taking pity on John and not firing him as Jay never fired anyone on TTS staff regardless of how far and fast they fell from announcer to wannabe staff writer a.k.a coffee fetching prankster man-child. Currently John has a podcast where he drunkenly airs grievances while claiming victories over perceived enemies on the internet. Complete with no guests as not even Army Majuh Richard Ojeda can tolerate the drunken ramblings of a failed father with mentally ill adult children he still claims are minors.
Place was permanently closed down a while ago, despite showing up as open. Owners never changed their online profile and status.
The Open Mic on Wednesday evenings is the best. No cover!
Great scene, atmosphere, vibe. Great headliners and the prices are reasonable. Will definitely come back for more laughs
Great show with fun company and good drinks. One of my favorite date night/ladies night places
