The Zebra Lounge is a very appropriate name since all of the walls are black and white stripes, which is very cool. If you are looking to get a seat and relax, you should try to arrive by 9:30 at the very latest. Its a good place to try if you are in the Gold Coast area but dont want to get too dressed up.

If you want to go out and meet new friends this is the place. Don`t be shy just talk to complete strangers and it`s easy to strike up a conversation because the live music is at a level were you can actually talk without shouting. The bartenders remember your drink and are very nice to everyone, she is beautiful and he`s not bad at all. The drinks are reasonable but the best part is the diverse crowd of people from all walks of life. It`s never the same experience always something a little different. It is a very nice crowd of people. Pros: The women are great here. Cons: The bathroom

What a cool lounge! Been in the area about a year, and just discovered it. It's kind of off the beaten path, locationwise, which is good, cuz' otherwise you'd never be able to get in! The atmosphere is dark and sexy, the bartenders are excellant, prices are reasonable(for the Gold Coast) the lounge lizard piano players are great, and the clientel is diverse and attractive. Consider me a new regular! Pros: great service, dark & romantic, live entertainment Cons: none

The Zebra Lounge is definitely one of my favorite places in Chicago. This tiny hole-in-the-wall (literally) has a great, laid back atmosphere with probably the oddest mix of people you'll ever see. On any given night you'll see the young hipsters, the Gold Coast yuppies, conventioneers, and the omnipresent Bachelorette party along with all of the regulars of course. The staff is always friendly and remembers you on return visits. Of course the main attraction is the piano. This is about as authentic a Lounge Lizard experience as you'll ever get in the 'oughts. Basically, if you like to have a good ol' time and laugh a lot, go to the Zebra. If you take yourself real seriously and want to be part of a "scene", there are about a million other bars out there for you. Pros: Fun atmosphere, good music Cons: expensive drinks

From transvestites to great martinis, the Zebra Lounge has everything you wouldn't expect from a small bar hidden in the Gold Coast. always a great time.
