Lipstick Lounge, also known as The Lip, is a bar in East Nashville, Tennessee in the United States, co-owned by Christa Suppan and Jonda Valentine. While it is lesbian-owned, it calls itself a bar for humans and is welcoming to anyone. It opened in a 125-year-old building on Woodland Street in September 2002, which Suppan bought in 2003. It is one of fewer than twenty remaining lesbian bars in the United States.
