Helium Comedy Club,

1510 SE 9th Ave, Portland, OR 97214, United States

"My husband and I were in the mood for a spontaneous date night and stumbled upon the Helium Comedy Club. The venue has a great atmosphere. The show was fantastic, filled with non-stop laughter. The comedian took us by surprise with their unabashed adult humor and language—definitely not for everyone, but we thoroughly enjoyed it. The only downside for us was the unexpected 2 item minimum for food and beverages per person. Maybe I missed the fine print on the ticket, but definitely caught by surprised. Having just indulged in dinner and drinks elsewhere, we felt a bit pressured to order more. Overall, Helium Comedy Club delivered on the laughs and entertainment front. It's a great spot for a lively night out, just be prepared for the 2 item minimum if you've already had a full meal which is why I am giving it 4 stars. We’ll definitely consider coming back for another night of comedy!"

"The servers were great and the food was good. Got to see Brad Williams which was Awesome and plenty of laughs. I know it was the last show of the night and they were extremely behind because they did 2 shows prior that day. I would have to admit it is not worth buying a reserved ticket. You pay more and the seats aren't better. You are better off taking your chances and getting general admission. The reserved seats went in last. They aren't even upfront which I thought would be since you pay more. We had a hard time seeing the comedian and the servers, employees and guest are constantly walking in front of your table so you really don't see much. We should of either been placed in the front tables or put at the tables that are a little higher up. Otherwise why would you oay for reserved seats if not for better seats. From talking to other people who here often they all agreed. Many said its a waste of money. Also I would like to add that most of the people in the front row area did not have a reservation and they got seated first"

"Fluid ticket booth movement and courteous and efficient staff. Solid drinks and tasty food choices. My qualm was seating a four top at a tiny table, but I understand it's about the show. I was put behind a man to which was a head and shoulders above me which prevented viewing much of the show. I'll work with staff for better logistics next time. A great place for Portland nonetheless!"

"I have now been here twice for two different live podcast shows. This venue is great. The only downfall is how squishy the seating can be. It's a nice intimate venue, though, so that's a good thing. Their food and drinks are also decent, and the staff is always really nice. Great vibes, overall. I will definitely be back for even more shows."
