Jongleurs Comedy Club

I’d never been to a comedy club but for some reason I was thinking Jongleurs in Bow would be akin to.. Seinfeld? I couldn’t be more wrong.

You turn up at an area so fenced it would probably put a prison to shame and walk also a row of new build but derelict businesses to get to a large building at the end resembling a chain pub. You’re then ushered up a lot of stairs and into a function room.

Have you ever been to a wedding? Ever been to a really bad wedding? Ever been to a really bad wedding with bad food and drink? Hopefully you’re getting the picture here. Jongleurs in Bow is basically a function room with temporary chairs and tables vacated by people who really don’t get out much.

If you do go there, don’t eat. Please. Don’t order the food. It’s the lowest quality food you could ever imagine. Little Chef seems like paradise compared to what comes out of the fat fryers at this place.

Oh wait, I forgot to mention the comedy. That’s because there wasn’t any. Some men did get on stage but the only time I laughed was when I got out the place and realised the joke was on me. I don’t know who will ever read this but if you’re thinking of going here, find a crappy wedding to crash instead - you’ll have more fun.
