Cobra Lounge

Awesome! Wonderful selection of All Rise beers and a great atmosphere. A unique establishment that has maintained is genuinity while much of Chicago has changed. Live music venue is great. And try the War Pig!

The service is okay, but it takes forever to get your food even when its not busy. I think they literally only have one cook! The diet coke is always flat. The waitress seems a little disoriented and scattered brained, but always nice. The portions are HUGE and the price is actually very inexpensive, but the temperature of the food isn't always up to par. The tater tots are never fresh. I don't know why someone would prep tater tots that only take 2 minutes to cook. They should always be made when ordered, not before! I have tried the 1/2 lb burger, which is fresh but flavorless. The club sandwich was okay, but they need to fully cook the bacon. It shouldn't be served cold. The jalapeno cheese corn fritters were fresh and good, but a little too doughy for my taste. My co-workers love the Cobb Salad and the portion size is HUGE.

Great venue. Good food, good beer. Solid atmosphere. Normally just there for shows or preshow for some food too. Solid hang, good staff.

Cobra lounge played host to the The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride. It is a global motorcycle fund-raising event to raise awareness of prostate cancer and male suicide prevention. They went all out, great job. Looking forward to next year.

This is a great venue to see bands, it was redesigned a few years ago, and has great sound. Get here while the kitchen is still open, as the food here is really good. A must order are the jalapeño cornbread fritters. The veggie burger is pretty decent and my carnivore friends liked their stuff too. Dinging a star because they always seem to run out of their beer.
