The Rum Monkey Comedy Boat - Battersea

You're heading down to Battersea's riverside, where a proper old barge has been transformed into one of London's most unexpected comedy venues. The Rum Monkey has swapped the usual sweaty basement setup for intimate shows on the Thames, with the gentle rock of the water adding to the whole surreal experience. Grab a rum cocktail, settle into the quirky converted boat interior, and watch comedians work a crowd that's genuinely buzzing. It's the kind of place that feels like a mate's discovered something and invited you along before everyone else cottoned on.
