The Stand, a comedy club off Union Square, is known for its world-class spirits program and performances of New York's top stand-up comics. The bar features over 240 bottles spanning bourbon, Scotch, and Japanese single malts, and a dedicated collection of private purchases from private companies like Woodford Reserve and Knob Creek. The restaurant also serves a wood-fired oven imported from Sicily, with a Northern Italian sensibility. The club has become a popular destination for top-tier comics, including Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, Pete Davidson, and Adam Sandler. The comedy is described as intelligent yet incisive, with an emphasis on pushing and pulling the edge of the audience.
