Also called the Zen by fanfic authors, The Zon is Lawndale's alterna-rock venue/bar where Mystik Spiral had regular gigs. Found on Dega Street, it is considered a hangout for the young adult demographic. Rarely are any high-school students found there, except for Jane Lane and Daria Morgendorffer, though they attend only to provide support (moral and roadie) for the band Mystik Spiral, of which Jane's older brother Trent Lane is the lead singer and lead guitarist.

The source of the confusion over the place's proper name is unclear (possibly a murky image from an episode in the series), but the Virtual Lawndale webpage in MTV's Daria website shows the name as "The Zon" (look for location #10 on the map).

In "Jane's Addition," Jane meets Tom Sloane at the Zon while Mystik Spiral is playing live music.

In addition, in a line of recorded dialogue in the official video game Daria's Inferno, Tracy Grandstaff pronounces the name as "Zōn" (like "Zone").
