The Tippler

A side entrance and a flight of stairs lead down into this cellar bar beneath Chelsea Market, a cavernous room of exposed brick, a long marble bar and patterned area rugs scattered underfoot. The cocktail list favors throwback names like the Montauk Makeout and Poppy Don't Preach, and a rotating line of seasonal drafts covers the beer side. Weeknights tend to be calmer than weekends, when the room fills with a crowd headed to or from the market upstairs.
