A rewarding happy hour offers three basic things: a cheap drink; a fun and engaging venue; the promise to get back to your home by 9.pm sharp. 

New York City has all the happy hour deals you need to enjoy your drinking day out. For just 10 bucks (and even less,) you can get tipsy whether on a date, with friends or just by yourself. 

Astoria

Sat-Sun: 2-8pm

Madam Marie’s Astoria is home to one of the best New York’s happy hours. Here, you can drink wines and other booze at $5 drafts. But if that doesn’t satisfy your taste, you can go for the free hot dog and get your drink at the top of the game. 

Be sure to take a snarf down at some of those hot dogs. Otherwise, a shot-special like the $6 worth Narragansett will leave you chirping about your good, old days. If you are going with a group of friends, this place is the best; thanks to the large backyard with much available seating.

Heavy Woods

The bar also operates a late-night, more intimate happy hour beginning from the heart of midnight till four in the early morning. That means if you miss the usual happy hour due to late working hours; you can use this moment to make up for the suppose lost time.
