Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Cobra Lounge

235 N Ashland Ave

Chicago, IL 60607

Located in Chicago’s Near West Side/West Loop area, Cobra Lounge sits within city limits and is easy to reach from downtown neighborhoods and nearby hotspots.

• Parking: Street parking is available, but it can be limited. Plan ahead — public transit or rideshare is recommended.
• Public Transit: The venue is accessible via CTA buses and trains, with the Ashland Green/Pink Line station nearby.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Pickup and dropoff zones are available right at the venue entrance on N Ashland Ave.

Arrival Recommendations

Arrive 30–60 minutes before showtime to breeze through entry, grab a drink, and settle into your preferred spot — especially for general admission shows where early arrival can mean a spot closer to the stage. If you plan to dine, consider coming earlier to enjoy Chef Gilmore’s menu before the house fills up.

Cobra Lounge is primarily an indoor venue, so weather isn’t a major factor once you’re inside. That said, plan for conditions during arrival and departure; Chicago weather can change quickly, and you may be waiting curbside for rideshare or strolling a few blocks from transit.

Street-level entry and minimal walking make getting around simple. Because parking can be tight, consider taking the CTA Green or Pink Line to Ashland or using rideshare to avoid circling for a space and to keep the focus on the show.

Venue Navigation

Cobra Lounge features a straightforward layout that blends a lively bar and restaurant with a close-quarters live music space. The intimate stage design brings performers and fans together, and the compact footprint means you’re never far from the action.

You’ll find a full bar with local beers and a menu that twists Chicago’s classic bar staples — burgers, chicken, veggie options, soups, and more — into craveable pre-show or mid-set bites. Expect a casual, rock ’n’ roll atmosphere throughout. If you’re planning to stand on the main floor for most of the night, comfortable footwear is a smart choice.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Arrive early for a spot near the stage — the intimate floor fills quickly.
• Consider CTA or rideshare — street parking in the West Loop/Near West Side can be tight.

Pre-Event Planning

Make a night of it by arriving a bit early for dinner and drinks — Cobra Lounge’s full menu, curated by Chef Gilmore, is a highlight in its own right. From burgers to veggie options and soups, the kitchen puts a distinctive Chicago twist on bar staples, and local beers keep the neighborhood feel front and center.

Coordinating with a group? Set a meet-up point near the entrance on N Ashland Ave or plan to gather at the bar before doors. For general admission shows, getting in line 30–60 minutes before start time improves your chances of securing a favorite viewing spot on the floor or near the bar.

If you’re exploring before or after the show, the surrounding West Loop and Fulton Market districts offer a wealth of dining and nightlife. Keep an eye on Cobra Lounge upcoming events so you can plan future hangs and keep the momentum going with friends.
