Peppermint Lounge was a famous nightclub in New Jersey, USA, during the 1960s. It was located in East Orange, at 14th North Park Street. Peppermint Lounge began as a gay bar in the 1960s, but it became popular with a wider audience after the Twist dance craze took off.
The Peppermint Lounge is best known for launching the careers of Chubby Checker, who performed "The Twist" live on stage for the first time at the club and Joey Dee, who had a hit with "Peppermint Twist." The club hosted other popular musicians of the era, including The Rascals and The Ronettes.
The Peppermint Lounge was famous for its wild dance parties, which attracted celebrities like Jackie Kennedy and Andy Warhol. The club closed its doors in 1976, but its legacy lives on in the many songs and movies that featured its iconic dance moves. Today, the building is a private residence.
