Went for drinks and comedy. Bar staff was amazing! Spicy chicken sandwich was so good. Comedy was so funny! Band and drinks after perfect evening.

My husband and I have been to Comic Cents twice in the last month and both times have been SO much fun! We loved the atmosphere (it’s small, but cozy) and really enjoyed the comedians! We’ll definitely be back.

If there was a zero I would choose that. I am a local business owner and got targeted by the bartender and manager after 1 beer at the bar. They made a poor assumption and wouldn’t own up to it. I got kicked out after one beer at a private work event. Own up to your mistakes guys. Additionally, our company booked a private room that they were not prepared for. We waited 30 minutes for service at the bar for a booked room at our private event. This is my first time at this location. I was very excited but I really just can’t believe how I was treated as a 45 year old at at work event. It seems to
me that the bar is only prepared for drunk college students and that’s how they plan to treat everyone. I would like to say that the door man bouncer was very considerate and kind and saw the entire thing. He understood that I was not drunk and was understanding. I am not sure why or how I got treated this way but I will never go back to this location for business or for my tour company. We are all human and all I expect is for people to be honest. That did not happen. If you are a commercial company I would strongly suggest booking your event somewhere else.

Love this place! I’ve been to the Comic Cents comedy show several times and it’s always great. There are always at least 3 comics per night and each and every one has been great. I had family in town last weekend and we wanted to go somewhere that was a sure thing and as usual Comic Cents and License 1 delivered. All 3 comics were great and we loved the atmosphere and service. Highly recommend.

I cannot believe this place has been overtaken by some bs corporate hotels group. I paid 22 dollars for a smith and cross daiquiri, which used to be 13 dollars, but now it is 22 dollars, which by the way a smith and cross 750 ml bottle is $35. I get the hotel needs to make profit; but that is wayyyy too overpriced. This used to be my favorite bar in Boulder to get unique and exotic drinks and now it is another corporate money maker. Only come here if you want to blow a bunch of money on crap you could get at the Sundown Saloon.

I went to Comic Cents at License No. 1 for the first time a couple weeks ago and had such a great experience. The speakeasy vibe is really cool, the drinks were excellent, and the comedy show had us laughing the whole time. The space is intimate and fun, which made the show even better. Overall, License No. 1 is an awesome spot for a night out. After the comedy show, we had so much fun watching the band in the back room and enjoyed more delicious cocktails. I highly recommend Comic Cents and License No. 1 for a night out in Boulder!

Went to License No 1 last Friday for a comedy show. We enjoyed a drink in the speakeasy area before the show. The ambience was really nice. The comedy show was great – a few openers and then the headliner. Great place for a date night!

Comic Cents in Boulder is an intimate venue to see a comedy show. Every seat is great! Servers are friendly and drinks are tasty! If you’ve not been, try it out. Lots of funny comedians play here!

This was a very cool experience for a friends birthday get together. They did not have any chartreuse which I was very disappointed about. But the drinks were still relatively unique with good options. The food was not amazing to be honest, calamari was a bit saltier than I’d like but was gluten free which is somewhat rare. The burger itself tasted pretty good but the gluten free bun which is tough to get right was quickly falling apart. I love the setup of the rooms and we had a great time playing pool – you do need some cash for change to make quarters – it’s 4 quarters for each pool game.
