Maybe you were productive at work today. Maybe you didn’t even work today. But whether you crossed every task off your to-do list or read the entire internet while you were supposed to be making a spreadsheet, you deserve an affordable drink roughly between 5-8pm (or maybe 8am-5pm). Here are some spots where you can do just that.
Chug’s has a pretty standard Happy Hour Thursday through Sunday with $9 cocktails and $5 beer. But every day from 6-7pm, they do something that sounds like it should be illegal: a special 99-cent martini Happy Hour. The martinis are tiny and they require a purchase of food. But you can get them dirty or dry for just 99-cents, making this a deal you couldn’t even theoretically get at the modern dollar store. Come solo, sit at the terrazzo counter, and let the classic diner nostalgia wash over you while you eat a Yoo-hoo tres leches and drink a martini.
