Shape The Night
Before
Chelsea MarketThe National Biscuit Company baked Oreos in this block-long brick building, and the ground floor is now a concourse of counters you walk through rather than sit down in. The building is open from seven in the morning until ten at night, though the stalls set their own hours inside that and the coffee and bread counters are the first ones up. It is crowded most of the day and the crowd moves. You order standing up and eat standing up, or you carry it across Tenth Avenue to the High Line.

After
Corner BistroA cash-only bar at West 4th and Jane where the burger comes on a paper plate and the beer is cheap. There are no reservations and no table service beyond someone shouting your order. It runs to 4am Thursday through Saturday, so it is one of the few places in the West Village still cooking when a late set lets out.
