Review of Tam Cowan's Aff The Baw with Sanjeev Kohli

Yet another fantastic night with Tam and yet another top guest, Sanjeev was great, perhaps better live on stage than Navid on TV and that`s some compliment from a big Still Game fan.
Tam never misses with great jokes and perfect timing keeping the audience in stitches. Unmissable, affordable, live entertainment.

Review of Tam Cowan's Aff The Baw with Jonathan Watson

Great wee venue creating a good atmosphere, ok drink prices a bit steep on top of the ticket admission so be aware. Jonathan watsons stories were great always been a fan and was good to meet him in person. Tan Cowan on the other hand seems to be stuck in a bygone decade maybe fine for sportsman’s dinners but his jokes were end of the pier stuff.

Review of Merchant City Comedy ft. Marc Jennings

Great night of comedy. Music rating is low as only heard it for about 5 minutes before the room opened up for the comedy show.

Review of Tam Cowan's Aff The Baw with Jonathan Watson

Another top night, they seem to be getting better and better. Canny beat a right good laugh which is exactly what Tam delivers, Jonathan`s stories were superb.

TC never disappoints!
The last Thursday o the month at Blackfriars has become a wee treat for us!
I like the relaxed entry and seating system. It just sets the tone for an informal knees up and belly laughs!
One complaint tho, more towards patrons (and it might sound kinda contradictory after using the word "informal" ) there is ample opportunity to get the drinks in before Tams set and a generous 15/20min break to acess the upstairs and downstairs bar... can we use that time and naw get up n down during the set. Personally i find it rude but if the act doesn't mind i suppose it's naw for me to say...i just feel it's disruptive in such a small space.
All and all the vibe is great, crowds always dead friendly, staff are lovely and entry price more than reasonable. Cheers TC!

An absolute pleasure to watch Rachel Jackson. Couldn’t stop laughing and wish the set lasted longer. Her interactions with the audience members were incredible. A fantastic night and glad I was there to be a part of it 👍
