To piggy back on this, I think it's worth noting that a lot of places that used to have "two drink minimums" (like comedy clubs) have moved to "two item minimums". The markup on food may be steep, but it's not as absurd as the markup on nonalcoholic beverages, and it removes the "you should be drinking" signal that can be uncomfortable for some people.
Comedy shows are still filled with drunk idiots who don't know how to act in public, but it's definitely more friendly to people who don't drink than it used to be.

Went to helium not long ago. They did have the two item minimum. I actually felt better to have food and a drink than get two drinks and get kinda hammered. It wasn’t more expensive than bar food, so I appreciated being able to munch on something and felt less awkward

Plus, if you work until 5, you don't have to worry about cooking, and hauling ass to the 7pm show, you can just eat there!

Kung fu necktie is an interesting place. It’s small, but the stage area in the back is decently sized. They have National/international acts, so that’s cool. It’s pretty divey so if you’re into that it’s great
