Brite Bar:
Remember those fun Lite-Brites from the 1980s? They’re making a comeback at Chelsea nightspot Brite Bar. Don’t believe us? This relaxed bar in a remodeled historic hotel pairs leather couches and plastic-covered chandeliers with—you guessed it—twinkling Lite-Brite games sprinkled around the space. And the best part? There’s no velvet rope like the ones you’ll find at most of the other posh clubs in the area. 20- and 30-somethings alike come here to play with the blinking lights and sip tasty cocktails. Guzzle a mango margarita, ZYGO energy vodka cocktail, or the bar’s signature Fother Mucker drink, but don’t blame us if you’re screwing that name up by the end of the night. Definitely better than waiting all night in the lines at nearby Marquee and Bungalow 8.
