It's very close. A little over a mile; up to a mile and a half, depending on where in Greenwich Village you're going.
Penn Station is in Chelsea, and Chelsea is the neighborhood directly north of the West Village. Greenwich Village is directly east of the West Village, and the East Village is directly east of Greenwich Village.
The distance from Penn Station to Greenwich Village is a little over a mile, mostly south, but slightly southeast.
For future reference, in New York City, 17 to 20 street blocks (north/south blocks) equal a mile, and 5 to 10 avenue blocks (east/west blocks) equal a mile. As you can see, the length of the avenue blocks varies considerably. On the East Side it's more like 8 to 10 avenue blocks to a mile, while on the West Side it's more like 4 to 7 avenue blocks to a mile.
Of course, in Lower Manhattan, these estimations become worthless, since in Lower Manhattan there's no square grid pattern to the streets. They're all tiny and run in zig-zags.

What are some hip bars near Penn Station?
Hip, trendy bars in the area around Penn Station are few and far between. You would be much better off taking the subway down to the West Village. The West Village is one of the trendiest neighborhoods in the city, and both the A-C-E subway line (the blue line) and the 1 or 2 trains (of the 1-2-3, the red subway line) run directly between Penn Station and the West Village. If you take the A-C-E, then you will be going from Penn Station (34th Street) to West 4th Street. That is TWO STOPS on the A train, and THREE STOPS on the C or E. If you take the 1 train, then you will be going from Penn Station (34th Street) to Christopher Street/Sheridan Square. That is FIVE STOPS. Do NOT take the 2 or the 3 trains, as they are express trains and do not stop at Christopher Street/Sheridan Square. The West Village is absolutely loaded with trendy bars and restaurants. Just walk around a bit and pick one you like.
