Drinks & Nightlife
There are a number of great bars and nightclubs along this street. Most of these places stay open late and are relatively close to the apartment should you wish to stay close by. We personally suggest The Bernard Shaw (a very hip & alternative place serving some great pizza), Whelans (for some undiscovered talent) and Chelsea Drugstore for delicious cocktails.

Blackbird is a great little spot for some chilled beers and boardgames and it's super close to the apartment. Be warned, it closes at 12 as it is in a residential area.
