The Drunken Horse
“I took careful note of the fireplace, so once it gets colder I will be back to explore more of their wine list and eat something!”
“Very cute bar which we went to because we were early for our dinner reservation next door at red cat and the hostess there suggested we have a drink here since red cats bar was full.”
“A cozy intimate place where my girlfriends and I went on a Saturday night, after a hectic shopping and walking day around Soho and Chelsea area.”

Great service! A couple of us rambled in here before a show…like 15 minutes before a show and the staff here were so nice! they let us get drinks fast and were quick to bring us a bill and we just really liked our 5 minutes here! Im sure the next time we will be happy to stay longer!
Thanks guys for the pre-show assist!
We were walking by, just wanted a place to sit down and relax for a few minutes. My wife and I each ordered a glass of wine, my son ordered a stout. We were all very happy with our choices. Very cozy place, when I get back there again I'll stop in.
My recent experience at The Drunken Horse was great! We came here on a Thursday night in the mood for drinks and we were not disappointed.
The service here is prompt, attentive and very helpful. Our server helped us choose a great Italian wine to pair with our food. The menu is sparse and limited in scope (primarily Mediterranean) but the food is still decent (nothing special but adequate to accompany drinks). The drink menu is extensive with a great selection of wines, cocktails and whiskey.
The ambiance is laid back and casual while still being fun and cozy. There were still quite a crowd there on a Thursday but were able to get the long table in the back to ourselves. Overall, experience here is great for drinks more so than the food but worth a visit if you're in the area!
A cozy intimate place where my girlfriends and I went on a Saturday night, after a hectic shopping and walking day around Soho and Chelsea area. We welcomed sitting down to some delicious wine. Even though it was a wine bar, it would have been nice to see some more options for cocktails since I was craving something more refreshing and 'thirst-quenching'. A great environment for talking with friends. Would recommend this to anyone!
I came to The Drunken Horse for a quick happy hour with friends and thought the atmosphere was phenomenal. The couches in front of the fireplace were warm and welcoming; it was the perfect spot after a bitter cold afternoon in Chelsea.
NOTE: We did not try the food so my review is based on the drinks, service, and overall atmosphere.
Simple menu, with GREAT options!
I recommend the weekend happy hour 3-5 (I think).
Regardless, I went with my mom and family friend. we stumbled upon this place after a broadway show. The foods good. Nothing special, but for what they have, and the price it costs I was definitely impressed.
The atmosphere was good. Not too loud, but as any place does, it started to pick up by around midnight/1.
DH has managed to achieve one of those rare spots in the hall of recognition, which is to be an amazing place for whatever, whenever. It's effortlessly cool, a scene without being a crowd, good prices (affordable but not cheap) that make you believe there's quality but not highway robbery going on, and next door to the red cat – bonus for cool neighbors! We got the reisling and the malbec at the bar and felt like we were at home with the din of outside noise surrounding us. Total homerun.
So, I sort of have mixed feelings about this wine bar. First off, my review may be biased as I found myself here at about 2am when searching for a classy place to eat. It was slim pickings, even in Chelsea, as this place is close to a rowdy night club. In any case, if you are looking sip wine by a fireplace and get an appetizer…this is it.
Otherwise, the menu items here are really small and pricey. I had to got 2 appetizers and an entree. Somehow, I managed to still walk away hungry. And yes, who expects to eat a meal at 2am? I missed lunch and dinner. But I would avoid coming here hungry is the point. (Scratching my head…why come at all?)
As far as a wine bar, the bottles here are $45plus. I feel like you can get a better experience and more bang for your buck at any of the wine bars in persay…Greenwich Village. Food…meh.
