Located a few minutes from Surrey in New Westminster, Lafflines features everything from first-timers to international headliners. There is a cover charge, which varies based on the night of the week you attend. Weekends usually find the biggest names and therefore higher prices, but you'll get your money's worth no matter when you go. Reservations are recommended and attendees must be at least 19 years old. There is a full bar, but food options are limited.

If you want to mix it up a little away from the typical standup comedy show, watch this improv troupe make things up as they go along. You get to feel like part of the show as the improv players act out scenes that you suggest. They do two shows every Friday and Saturday night. This is not a sit-down club so do not come expecting to eat a heavy meal, although typical theater fare is usually available. Tickets are available to all ages and can be purchased through Ticketmaster.
