Reviews
I’ve been to Cobra Lounge atleast 25-30 times in the past year and honestly I’ve always had a great experience.
I go to a lot of hardcore shows, so as you’d imagine I’m usually dying of thirst after each band. Cobra Lounge almost always provides free cups and water which is amazing - they also sell Liquid Death water too which although pricy, can beat waiting in line for water at sold out shows.
The food here is solid. There’s not a ton of options, but everything I’ve had so far has been good. Service, especially when sitting at a table, has always been excellent. If you go to grab a drink at the main/back bar later, it may take a few minutes but the bartenders are almost always quick and friendly.
There is parking outside the venue, although I should warn I’ve seen cars get broken into in these spots. The area isn’t bad in terms of walking, so I recommend parking at the Fulton Market Garage (about a 10 minute walk) down the road, which usually costs around $14. The garage is monitored and has elevators, so you know your car will be safe. The 10 minute can be a little sketchy, so if you’re a woman, please be considerate of your surroundings.
The sound of the venue is usually pretty solid. I’d say 8/10 shows, the sound is great. The venue is small and there is no seating, which is great for energetic and intense shows. The sound isn’t overly loud, but I’d still recommend earplugs.
Overall, Cobra Lounge is my favorite venue in Chicago. The staff, the shows, and the experience are consistent, enjoyable, and exactly what I’d want from an underground spot for smaller artists.
This place is alright - music is good but it's really empty here for Saturday night. Still, I'll be back
This lounge is a great Hangout,, decent Food and they have different Variety of Beer..I came in today because they had a Whut Burger.. only for today..I must say it was Disturbingly Good..😃🤣
Great live music venue, beer is ok, and bartenders can be hit or miss on friendliness. Overall, great place to see a show!
A little of all styles of music play here beers n cocktails and a cool outdoor spot
The beer was fresh and lovely. The food was amazing. I’m considering marrying the Italian Beef Quesabirria.
good venue, the burgers were awesome, bartender is great(remembered my name from the CC), great metal bands playing there, but stay away from any fancy beer - it feels like they are selling bud light for $8. got multiple, out of 4 only witbeer had any taste. it wasn't offensive, it was canned mass market light beer sold as variations of UK-style, and im sure of that.
Outstanding bar. Some delicious beers, great food, all with heavy metal playing like Muzak in the background. Friendly staff and a cool vibe.
I saw an electronic music concert here. The sound and lights were great. Plenty of room to dance. A second set of bathrooms are inside the concert section, this is nice.
Zero complaints, will visit here more often.
