7 Train Food Tour

As we always stay on theme, this about Happy Hour favorability beyond all else. So we're ranking based on affordability & diversity of their menu, timing & accessibility during the week, and impressive X factors that might include specialties, happenings, interior design, quality, or other elements central to an establishment's individualism. Shall we drink? Ay!!

We truly hope these spots can retain these qualities. And we understand if rising inflation or a worser excuse bring about the surprise removal of HH offerings in favor of increasing the bottom line or turnover. But in that same spirit you might find yourself dropped from this list and others alike.

And so to our readers, our glorious Gotham Knights - protectors of the realm, please flag, downvote, or disagree with a listing if that's the case.

Without further ado, strap on those knee pads because it's time to crawl:

`^{Stop #1}` Peking Duck Jianbing

‍

The Johnson's

‍

$3-$1

Everyday Until 7pm | See whenever LIVE in app

Bushwick

This is a Happy Hour comparison, so when you hand us a fully dedicated Happy Hour menu you're off to a great start. That shows commitment. Meanwhile the layback seating and pool table bring the vibes. And if you're hungry, the front-of-house popup restaurant brings the bites.

‍

Affordability & Menu Diversity | 9/10 | "If it had food on the HH printout menu it'd be a 10/10. But the laundry list of drinks <$10 will do just fine."
Timing & Accessibility during the week | 9/10 | "Predictable and accessible. From 2pm-7pm EVERY day including weekends is pretty stellar"
X factors| 9/10 | "A pool-table, separated spaces, sofa seating, booths, and pop-up food bring them nearly all the way here"

`^{Stop #2}` ️Xinjiang Skewer

‍

Mominette Bistro

‍

$1.50-$9

Varying times every weekday

Bushwick

HH menu diversity, affordability, and the fact that this exists inside a french bistro make this one pretty great. You just have to time it our correctly, but if you can you'll have granted yourself a cheap and delicious full experience.

‍

$7-$9

12pm-4pm on Weekends | See full offerings in app

Bushwick

The pic gives it all away but what it doesn't show is how cool the vibe is in here. This isn't your father's grimy sportsbar. It's giving upscale Bushwick sports club x bar.

‍

Affordability & Menu Diversity | 8/10 | "Emphasis on the menu diversity with 3 different types of happy hours throughout the week."
Timing & Accessibility during the week | 8/10 | "A pretty good cocktails happy hour on the weekend deserves its flowers"

`^{Stop #4}` ️La Esquina Del Camaron Mexicano | 74th Street/ Jackson Heights

‍

La Concheria

‍

$7-$10+

Mezcal Monday + Daily Happy Hours

Bushwick

The $10 Mezcal Mondays alone wouldn't do it, but combined with their Monday-Sunday daily happy hour containing tasty Mexican drinks and bites is what hoists La Concheria up.

‍

Affordability & Menu Diversity | 9/10 | "A Margarita ($7) and Guac ($7) Happy Hour everyday of the week you say? Hell yeah. Other great $7 cocktails too"
Timing & Accessibility during the week | 7/10 | "It's also every weekday but only for only 2 hours. $10 Mezcal Monday is all night though"

‍

Dive Bar BK

‍

$1-$15

$1 Wing Tuesdays 5pm to close. HH 5pm-8pm Wed.nesday-Saturday + All Day Sunday.

Bushwick

You're paying regular priced drinks on Tuesdays, but those $1 wings even it out. And the waterfall of HH drink options Wednesday-Sunday take you where you need to go from there. Although the $15 6-ingredient Pink Pearl might pull you over the edge. Paddle with caution.

‍

Affordability & Menu Diversity | 9/10 | "It's party time here. Pick your poison from 8 differently priced HH drink combinations and those tasty Tuesdays!"
Timing & Accessibility during the week | 7/10 | "No Monday or Tuesday drink specials, but the HH drinks are flowing all day on Sundays!"

Echo Bravo

‍

Echo Bravo has no shortage of games and specials. They might have the most loyalty rewards and games of any bar I've ever visited. You'll have to see what I mean. As far as their Happy Hour goes, see below.

‍

‍

Juke Bar

‍

$5-$13

4pm-7pm Monday-Friday

Bushwick

That $13 Beer & Smash Burger is seriously delicious! Not a bad deal either. This place is approachable. It's fun. The staff is awesome and folks enjoy their time at this watering hole. The happy hour is a pretty decent cherry on top.

‍
