This is my third visit. Great location and while enjoying the fun show, open bar is available with good selection of drinks. You get enjoy new jokes and meeting with new friends. I will definitely come back the next time.
Meshida is unique in a good sense. He has a wide range of themes to chose from as a comedian. It is not perfectly polished Comedy of German Style but more Like US Style. We enjoyed in the small Pub with a few beer.
Meshida-san is a very funny comedian and a really nice guy. The venue was delightfully kitschy and the show was hilarious. I really appreciated the fact that he took some time to talk with each guest; it made for a much more personal experience.
I think this was funny because he is Japanese and speaks English. The accent makes it funnier, and he has some educational information as well. It was a small venue, but luckily, they sold drinks. Don't come hungry; there weren't many places to eat nearby. There were some shops and one ushi place, so eat before you come. People smoke in the venue, so if you do not like that, wear a mask.
Very cozy venue. 8-10 total guests. Meshida welcomed each person one by one and introduced guests. Humor was funny and pointed. He gives up 15-20 minutes or so to introduce junior comedians just getting started. They are not really that funny but it is maybe it’s part of his family like atmosphere.
A very funny show by Meshida. Check him out on Instagram to get a taste of his comedy.
If you are a fan of standup comedy, definitely catch a show! Meshida is funny. A real treat.
Always great seeing Meshida-san Live comedy show, after watching many of his comedic but very informative Youtube videos. His stand up performance will teach you a thing or two about life and culture in Japan while having a laugh 😄👍🏼.
what I really liked is that it wasn't a typical stand up comedy where comedian would just come to the stage and perform, but also a meetup where we hangout with each other before and after the show. Jokes were amazing and funny. I love his type of humor
We stumbled into Meshida’s show completely by accident, just as he was starting - and he was so welcoming so we decided to stay not knowing what we were in for. And what a happy accident it was! This show was laugh out loud funny, and very witty! Would absolutely recommend - and would definitely go to another show!
