The warehouse district is pretty cool and the building that the comedy club is in was no exception. They did a great job with the decor. We arrived a little early so went to the bar inside the club. Shout out to Jake, our waiter. He was GREAT! Very knowledgable about the drinks and very attentive. The show itself was... More

Acme is in the warehouse district of Minneapolis which is close to downtown. There is plenty of street parking and a paid lot directly across the street. There is no minimum on the drinks, unlike Chicago and New York, and they are reasonably priced. The shows were solid, and the service was pretty good considering it was a packed house.

I went to the Acme comedy club with a group of friends to see Kermit Apio a few weeks ago. The venue is what you would expect for the Warehouse District in Minneapolis with exposed brick and ducts. The service was just okay - it took a long time to get a pitcher of beer - but they did have... More

They were hilarious and fed off each other well. Go to youtube and type Chris Bliss juggle. The man is... More

We went to see Nick Thune at Acme in Feb. 2011. We did the dinner and show package. The dinner was good and the service was very friendly. With the package you do get priority seating which is nice since if you don't arrive early with normal tickets you may not get a good seat. The comedy show itself, was... More

I'm sorry, I just can't deal with this place any more. The venue is horrible, huge pillars block the view. And the talent is horrendous. I've been here a half dozen times, and each time, the opener, or featured act, is much better than the headliner. I'm not sure if they don't watch the headliners tapes before they book them,... More
