NYC HAPPY HOURS

Everyone loves happy hour- myself included! It’s so fun to go after work and is a great excuse to meet up with friends:) I am lucky to live in a city where there are countless happy hours to choose from, and these are some of my favorite spots!

📍Bar Belly is in Dimes Square off of the Lower East Side. 🦪It’s a perfect spot for happy hour whether you’re with a big group, or on a date:). I love coming here on a Thursday afternoon and sitting outside! It’s in a great location to bar hop, and is right next to some great wine bars- check out Le Dive if you have time. 🍷And if you stay at Bar Belly a while, the inside has a darker and more night-out vibe.

⏳happy hour is from 5-7 everyday, making this a perfect place to check out during the weekend!

✍🏼The oysters here are hard to pass up and are $1 each during happy hour! I usually get a glass of their house wine during happy hour, and I love how they give you complimentary popcorn:) 🍿

📍Grey Dog has a few different locations! I usually go to their West Village spot, but they all have both indoor and outdoor seating which is great for the summer. They have a great menu for brunch and lunch/dinner, with enough options that anyone could find something here!

⏳ Monday-Friday, @ 3-7! This is one of the longest happy hours I’ve seen, and it’s totally worth it. Beer is $4, wine $6, cocktails $7, and food specials at $8! Even better- they also offer happy hour on Saturday & Sunday from 4-7:) check it out!

✍🏼I personally love their brunch here! They usually have great deals on brunch cocktails, and every time I have been they have a specialty drink for the season ☀️🍉

📍The Ready Rooftop is a great spot to grab drinks and a bite to eat after work or during the day on a weekend! It’s located in the East Village Moxy hotel, and is a little bit of a hidden gem- never too crowded, but always a great time🥳🍾 they have a DJ some weekends and the music always makes a good vibe.

🌃Although the view isn’t amazing here despite being a rooftop, the happy hour deal more than makes up for it- I think it’s one of the best in the city!

⏳ Monday – Thursday @ 4PM – 6PM and Friday – Sunday from 12PM – 3PM.

✍🏼The deal here is $9 margs & $1 tacos- and you can’t beat it! 🌮 The margaritas on happy hour were perfect and the tacos exceeded my expectations… especially at $1 each! It’s always a great time here and this deal is too good to not check out:)

FYI- they also take reservations which is great to do for a bigger group.

📍Dante has a Greenwich Village and a West Village location- their Martini Hour is at the West Village spot. 🍸In general, Dante is a wonderful place to go with friends, take your parents, or go out for a date night. Their food is very solid here, but their drinks are the star of the show! They have rotating seasonal menus with really unique flavors and endless options.

⏳Their martini happy hour happens everyday from 3-5, and is such a great deal!

✍🏼There is a separate martini hour menu with options for only $10, which is great. They have a variety and it changes often, but you really can’t go wrong with most options🥳 The dirty martini as pictured here is a classic, and is made table side… so fun! I would definitely recommend making a reservation before hand here, as it gets pretty busy!

📍The Von is a small spot on a cobblestone street, and seating moves outside at night. They often have different performers here, and they have a fun basement too! It’s a good spot to hit before going out, and has a romantic vibe inside that’s perfect for date night:)

⏳happy hour runs from 4-7 everyday and offers wine for $7, select beers for $6, and frozen margaritas for $10!!

✍🏼I love how they write their drinks on a chalkboard here. They have draft cocktails like Negronis (my favorite) but also do classic margaritas and cosmopolitan’s very well. Any beer lovers would like it here too! They have a wide selection of craft beer. 🍻

📍Bowery 310 is a fun spot if you’re looking for a place to go out at night, but also offers a great happy hour deal! Their inside seating area gets taken down at night to make room for a DJ and dance floor, but this place is great too for watching sports. They have a big screen that comes down and makes for a fun time watching the game!

⏳happy hour here is Tuesday- Friday from 5-7. Their drinks are always great, but if you’re feeling more of a seltzer vibe than cocktails, they have a wide variety! PS- they also have pizza here that looks great!

✍🏼Their happy hour deal might be one of the best in the city- it’s half off your bill!! It’s buy one get one for drinks, and it pretty much covers anything you get… but with some limitations. Regardless, it’s worth checking out!
