Trailer Park Lounge, 23rd St. near 8th Ave, Chelsea

It’s always the 1950s at Trailer Park Lounge. Festooned with kitsch, fairy lights, and photos of Elvis Presley impersonators, why not run away to a simpler time of post-war optimism and Bobby-soxers?

Chow down big plates of backyard home cooking, like beef burgers, mac and cheese, and nachos, and wash them down with a pitcher of margarita or memory-obscuring cocktails, such as Jim Bob’s IQ.

It will feel like you’re in Happy Days, at least until tomorrow, when you will realize it’s the end of days.
