A small bar/restaurant just off of the southeast corner of Times Square, the Manhattan Chili Company is a fun, not-expensive nightspot. The walls, menu and food is colorful and interesting. Big, tasty drinks and a wide dessert selection round out the experience.

If you're staying a the Manhattan Club, this is a very convenient spot for a quick bite before a show. They serve numerous chilis, all of which are pretty good and none are terribly hot. The beer is nice and cold. They have a good size bar and a full dining room on the second floor. The hot dogs (two per portion) are tasty and satisfy a heartier appetite.
