What's the best lounge in Baltimore?
I'm talking everything from high-end places like Red Maple to laid-back bars with comfy lounge areas. And just because a place has the word "lounge" in its name doesn't mean it's really a lounge.
I'll give you my list on Friday. What's yours?
I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.

My husband and I love the outdoor lounge at the Ruth's Chris at Pier 5. What better place is there to be on a nice summer night but outside people watching under the stars.

does brewer's art (upstairs, not the dungeon-esque basement) count as a lounge? if so, then thats the best one in baltimore!

Casbar had delicious drinks and an eclectic music selection last Saturday, and my out-of-town guests enjoyed the special-effects drinks and decor at Ixia. But my personal favorite is Tusk Lounge on the second floor of Brass Elephant. Comfy, never loud or crowded.
