A Look INside: Select Lounge

Select Lounge | 415 N Paca Street, Baltimore, MD

Select Lounge opened in 2010 with a mission to "Redefine Nightlife in Baltimore" and, amidst a recent tragedy associated with the venue; it has continued to do just that.

To start, you may have some difficulty finding parking outside of the venue- However, once you approach the line, its smooth sailing. The security is respectful, tactful, and adds to the secure feeling that you feel when you enter the lounge. There's a small lobby area where, in the case you're coming in from the rain, you're able to get yourself together and pay any cover fee they are charging at the time. Up the stairs you go, and you'll enter straight into the dance floor, take a glance at the high sitting DJ booth, and see a sectioned off VIP area/SoundStage.

The bar stretches on the right side of the venue while VIP tables are available on the left, and all the way in the back left corner. I've noticed that you may want to be a bit vocal at the bar, but once you order your drink, the bartenders there will make you some of the best mixed drinks in Baltimore. From the bar, you're able to see every drink that is served as almost everything is visible or sits behind glass- and if you look up you'll see a very posh red lighting above the bar alongside their plasma TVs.

One of my favorite things about this venue is the bathroom. Common bathroom stalls aren't bad- but Select Lounge has individual bathroom stalls where you're enclosed in your own bathroom whenever you utilize them; and the sinks light up different colors.

Overall, this venue is made for upscale events that cater to a diverse and classy crowd. Every time I've attended Select Lounge, I've had a great time- and I intend to party there many nights to come. Stay tuned to InsiderNights.com for more about Select Lounge and Upcoming Events.
