The only comedy club owned by a dog.

The duo of Josh Giesbrecht and Marley Mecas transformed a cannabis dispensary into a bodega-style grocery store that still discreetly sells cannabis but places emphasis on fresh produce, pantry basics, ready meals, and grab-and-go items.

A stage with a red cedar wall was built, the old drop ceiling was replaced with a custom antique oak stained wood ceiling. Bit by bit people have donated time and materials to make this dream a reality. There is still a lot of work to complete the build, but it’s up and running.

Mike Green (JFL, FibeTV, Don’t Tell Comedy) is leading the charge with our hottest show - Next Up! Comedy that happens bi-weekly with plans to ramp up to a weekly pro/am comedy show and adding an open mic on Thursdays.

Our Friday Night Laughs show have a rotating cast of 4 pro comics that host a different show every Friday night at 8pm.

Join our newsletter to stay in the loop and, if you can, consider donating to help us finish construction on the club!
