The title compound, C8H9ClO, packs with two independent mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, without significant differences in corresponding bond lengths and angles, with the ethyl group in each oriented nearly perpendicular to the aromatic ring having ring-to-side chain torsion angles of 81.14 (18) and −81.06 (19)°. In the crystal, mol­ecules form an O—H...O hydrogen-bonded chain extending along the b-axis direction, through the phenol groups in which the H atoms are disordered. These chains pack together in the solid state, giving a sheet lying parallel to (001), via an offset face-to-face π-stacking inter­action characterized by a centroid–centroid distance of 3.580 (1) Å, together with a short inter­molecular Cl...Cl contact [3.412 (1) Å].
