Saturday Late Night Comedy

Before

0.1 mi · 1 min walk - East Village

Open at 15 East 7th Street since 1854, and it still sells one thing, its own ale, light or dark, two mugs at a time. Sawdust on the floor and cash in the till. No reservations, and there is no way around the door.

After

0.2 mi · 5 min walk - NoHo - Astor Place

A pool hall on 11th at Fourth Avenue with a full bar at the front and tables behind it. Pool, ping pong and darts, open to 3am every night of the week. You can take a table for an hour or sit at the bar and not take one at all. Leagues run here, so some nights a section of the floor is spoken for while the rest is walk-up.
