There's The Comedy Store, if you can get tickets. There's often a queue
down the street before the doors open on Saturday evening.

There are often stand-up shows on a the Leicester Square theatre too.

In fact, if you walk around Leicester Square for ten minutes or so
you'll probably be handed half-a-dozen flyers for comedy clubs, although
I can't speak for the quality.
