Join us on this Happy Hour Tour for some of the best neighborhood bars in midtown west! We will visit 4-5 bars in the Times Square and Hells Kitchen area all within close distance to one another. Each venue will offer drink specials as low as $5 including beer, wine, vodka, margaritas and shots. You don’t have to drink alcohol at every stop!
This is perfect to meet new people from all over the world whether you are traveling alone or in a group! We will choose together as a group from a short list of bars ranging from a dive bar, to trendy lounges, a tiki bar, gay bars, a vodka bar and a karaoke bar. We will visit roughly 4-5 bars total depending on group consensus.
All of the venues we choose from will have great drink specials, such as $3 draft beer, $4 flavored vodkas, $10 specialty cocktails and one bar where everything (including food) is half off for happy hour! Many of the places we visit will have affordable small bites in case you get the munchies.
You will also get a print out of happy hour and restaurant recommendations in the area! This is perfect for someone staying in midtown as the list of possibilities is long!
We will start in Hell's Kitchen and work our way east toward the Times Square area staying within a fairly tight vicinity. (Read : little walking) The route is a guideline. The group will be given more options that they can choose from including dive bars, gay bars, and trendy lounges.
