The trendy bars come and go in this fashion-conscious neighborhood, but time stands still at Chelsea Commons. This old pub hosts an assortment of locals; artists trying to avoid the pretentiously hip and workers from the nearby warehouses and depots. A fireplace gives it a homey feel in the winter and an outdoor patio, an urban escape in the summer. The jukebox has a nice mix of R&B, rock, country, and jazz. A great place for conversation and a pint of beer. Food is available but don't get fancy; stick with the basic pub fare.
