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?

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.
