The Lion's Den is a contemporary Comedy Club set in a nightclub in the West End of London on Shaftesbury Avenue. We specialise in giving new acts a great stage with an excellent PA and lighting. Despite our name we have a very supportive attitude toward newbies and up-and-coming acts. After a show, you are welcome to hang out as the pace picks up and the night turns into a comercial dance night. Your entry is already paid.

We aim to give both the acts and the audience a relaxed and friendly place to enjoy doing something they love - whether it's laughing or making other people laugh. Put us on your 'things to do in London on a Tuesday list'.

Do yourself a favour - come down and see a show.

Please call in advance if you intend to turn up with 7 of more people and we will do our best to accommodate you and your friends by reserving rows and having drinks pre-made for you.

We give performers (new and old) a stage to shine on. We always try to ensure a mixture of experienced and totally fresh acts for your entertainment. It's interactive, reactive and sometimes unattractive but it's always different and fresh. We don't allow gratuitous heckling but don't mind a bit when there is just cause. Remember, comedians have feelings too.

If variety is what you're looking for then check us out! We are also well known for accommodating first timers. Add our happy hour into the mix and we can guarantee you will enjoy the night so much you'll be back again and again.

Our door price of £4 has remained the same since we opened and we do a special rate of 2 for £8!

Apparently Laughter releases endorphins in the brain which make us feel good, also it reduces the hormone cortisol which is linked to stress. In addition, a good laugh can raise your imune levels by up to 40%. Every time you laugh - you tone your stomach muscles and excercise your respiritory system, becoming a wholly better human being. Coming to a comedy show can count as fitness training if you clap lots as well as laugh. Also, laughter has a natural aphrodisiac effect. Bringing a date to the club would be a great idea. We'll do the 'making them laugh' bit and hopefully we'll do wonders for your love life. If you're single it's also a great place to meet single comedians. Laughing is also probably good treatment for depression and sadness. It's the right place at the right time.
Yes! Do it! Come... We need good audiences. Audiences that stay to the bitter end. Audiences like you!

We run EVERY Tuesday at Bar Rumba with our Comedy Car Crash Open Mic format. It's the Genesis of Jokes and Jokers.
