Hangout

The Hangout is a lot assignment introduced with The Sims 3: Ambitions, and later added to The Sims 3 base game in a patch update, most likely Patch 18.Hangouts in Base Game? - ModTheSims
Hangouts look like a bar or pub. They generate a blue map tag featuring a cafe table. Hangouts always have juice bars in them, but adding a barbecue or a food register allows them to serve food as well. Beds can be added to create a tavern.
Sims with the party animal, excitable, or childish traits are attracted to hangouts, while Sims with the loner trait are repulsed by it. Hangouts are also attractive to Sims with a high charisma skill.https://modthesims.info/showthread.php?p=3228117#post3228117
==Lot compatibility==
As of patch 36, if you add the required Showtime objects in a hangout, it will be able to host live show type gigs without requiring to change the lot assignment, allowing it to function as both lot types. It will however not be able to host SimFests.

*A bathroom with 1 toilet and 1 bathtub.

*Not much else.
====Redwood Heights Luxury Lodge====

Converting it into a resort, would be perfectly possible, though at least 3 of the picnic tables would have to be sold to make way for a resort bungalow.

*An easel.
*5 picnic tables.
====Lars' Disco-Tech====
Contains:
*4 juice bars.
*1 stereo.

*2 searchlights.
If The Sims 3: Late Night is installed, the lot is moderately easy to convert to a club, by moving the stereo a bit to make space for a 5x5 dance floor, and replacing 1 or 2 of the juice bars with a professional bar.
====Alvetta's Fresh Produce====
Contains:
*A grocery.
*2 picnic tables.
*2 benches.
As standalone rabbit holes were not normally given the Hangout lot assignment, the lot may have been given it by mistake.
===Lucky Palms===
====Drinks at Diamondbacks====
Contains:
*2 juice bars.
*Some tables with seats.
*A dance floor on the 2nd floor.
*2 wall speakers (Plays classical by default).
*4 parking spots.
The lot is relatively easy to convert to a club by adding a dedicated dance floor object and a professional bar.

*3 juice bars.
*1 barbecue.
*5 mirrors.
*5 tables with seats.
*3 picnic tables.
*1 dumpster.

Roaring Heights has 4 hangout lots, all of them located on Beach Drive within 130 squares of each other.
====Beachfront Cafe====
*2 coffeemakers.
*14 tables with seats.
*A rather small backroom with a couch.
Note that what looks like a staircase up to the roof on the 3rd floor, is in fact fake, as there are no stairs inside that room.
====Luminous Bar====
*2 juice bars.
*1 coffeemaker.
*A stage on the 3rd floor. It perfectly fits both show stages (though spectator show floors would need some adapting to fit) and instrument gigs (which'd require changing the lot assignment). It is also one of two places in Roaring Heights to have electronics by default (A wall speaker that plays classical by default).
*A guitar, not in connection to the stage.
*Various tables with seats.
====The Palm Tree Bar====
*2 juice bars.
*2 coffeemakers.
*Various tables with seats and parasols.
*3 bike racks.
The 2nd and 3rd floor contain only kitchen counters and bathrooms, as if it was a hotel whose construction was cancelled halfway through. The very small outdoor space makes the lot non-viable to be turned into a resort, at least without selling a lot of bushes and tables.
====Oceanside Cafe====
*2 juice bars.
*Makeshift kitchen with 2 refrigerators, a buffet table, 3 sinks, and a coffeemaker.
*Various tables with seats, many of them with parasols.
