The Meatpacking District's happy hour scene leans upscale, with wine bars, cocktail lounges, and stylish hotel bars clustered near the Whitney and the High Line. Prices are higher than average, but the deals during happy hour bring them back to earth. The crowd skews fashion-forward and the spaces tend toward polished interiors and sidewalk seating. One of the more photogenic neighborhoods to grab an after-work drink.
