Chelsea sports aficionados should cheer for this expansive gaming den, featuring a sea of TVs broadcasting baseball, football, basketball--basically, any event featuring a ball. The handsome, 6,000-square-foot lounge is rustic and refined, with wood-plank walls, Gothic chandeliers and leather banquettes filled with bros pounding PBR cans and pints of Bass and Bud.

The antiqued pine walls hung with aged mirrors are complimented by dark chocolate accents around the bar and wrought iron gates around the banquettes.
