5 Best Cocktail Bars in Chelsea

As someone who lives on the Upper West Side, I'm always marginally annoyed when I hear of "this great new bar" and it's either on the Lower East Side or in Brooklyn.

I'll usually go anyway, but it's kind of a hike to get home.

So when I come across lists of great bars on the West Side, I get really excited--both to try a new bar and to not have an hour trip home.

Women Who Whiskey: Graduation Edition - Ward III

This last semester of graduate school--after which many WWW members graduated--was a bit crazed, and so Women Who Whiskey took an unintentional break from any official events between January and May.

But WWW was back in May with Graduation Edition at Ward III, a charming little cocktail bar in Tribeca known for its delicious bespoke cocktails.

Rachel and Julia

The staff was absolutely delightful, and the food was delicious. 

I had lamb tacos and tasted someone else's duck nachos. Yum!

A Manhattan

I had my signature Manhattan, which was delicious, while Rachel tried the Ward III, the bar's eponymous summer cocktail, made with Bourbon and strawberries.

The Ward III

We started off as a small group of six or so, but people kept filing in for late happy hour drinks before we all ran off to a splendid rooftop graduation party in Chelsea.

Rachel and Keenan

Overall it was a splendid place to close out our graduate school careers.
