BOOM Stand Up Bar

BOOM Stand Up Bar books rotating lineups of Mexican comedians in a two-floor comedy room on Insurgentes Sur. The space packs tables close — if you don't spring for a bottle, you'll likely share a table with strangers and sit toward the back. Shows run Tuesday through Saturday starting around 9 or 9:30 PM, with doors opening about an hour earlier.

Entry is advertised as free, but there's a required drink minimum per person — essentially an entry fee that covers a few beers, soft drinks, or waters. The snack menu includes wings, loaded fries, and bar basics, all priced separately. Service can be slow when the room fills up, and ventilation is limited, so expect it to get warm. Reserve ahead if you want a guaranteed table.
