89th And BrokeI'm a young professional living in Astoria (formerly of Williamsburg, the UES and Murray Hill - I move a lot!). I'm always looking for something fun to do or the best place to grab a drink and dinner at an affordable price around the city.

Editor’s Note: Thank you for the great response! We’ve already hit our limit but please let us know if you’d like to join the wait list. Surely some people will back out between now and then and we’d love for you to take their spot(s)! And if you did RSVP for you and a [...] September 8th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Party, UES | Category: Bar food, Coming Up, Deals, Drinks, Event, Happy Hour |

Since moving (back) to the Upper East Side, I’ve been on a quest to hunt out new go-to spots in my neighborhood. Sometimes I get a hankering for pub food, so finding a decent bar with a good burger was something that appealed to me. Everyday I walked by Genesis Restaurant & Bar, and [...] August 13th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Bar food, Beer, Burger, Happy Hour, Pub Food, UES | Category: Bar food, Burgers, Drinks, Happy Hour |

Thanks to NYC Daily Deals, we know that Tonda in the East Village is offering $1 beer Wednesdays throughout the summer. Up tonight? Olde Saratoga Lager. It’s rare to find a higher quality beer (read: not PBR or Bud Light) at such a discount, so this is truly a steal. You can enjoy your [...] August 4th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Beer, Deal Alert, East Village, Pizza | Category: Deal Alert, Drinks, Pizza |

July 21st marks National Belgian Day and Petite Abeille is celebrating with some food and drink specials. If you want to honor your Belgian heritage or if you just want to down a few Belgian beers and dine on mussels and fries, then look no further than the 1st Ave and 20th Street Petite Abeille [...] July 20th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Belgian, Dael Alert, Gramercy | Category: Belgian, Deal Alert, Drinks |

In honor of the US’s victory yesterday, we thought we’d share a few more World Cup specials around the city (again, these are not exactly hard to come by, so we’re just picking out a few that we like). One of our favorites is at Exchange Bar & Grill in Gramercy. If you’re watching [...] June 24th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Bar food, Beer, Deal Alert, Drinks, food, Pizza, World Cup | Category: Bar food, Barbecue, Brunch, Deal Alert, Drinks, Lunch Spot, Meals, Pizza |

I’m happy to report that I’ve found a new affordable (read: cheap) spot for my drinking: Manny’s on Second. I hit it up during the free hour open bar that’s hosted by I’m Not At Work at a new location each month, and lucky for us, this past month it was at this fine establishment (I [...] May 25th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Deals, Drink Specials, Happy Hour, INAW, UES, upper east side | Category: Bar food, Deal Alert, Deals, Drinks, Happy Hour |

So as I teased earlier this week in my write-up of Posto, I have a great new bar to share with all of you! 3 Steps, located on the same block, so 2nd Avenue between 18th and 19th, is a fantastic little hole in the wall and I’m literally excited to tell you about [...] April 29th, 2010 | Tags: $, 5 Stars, Anyone, Bar, Deal Alert, Deals, Drinks, family, Friends, Gramercy, Roomates | Category: Deal Alert, Deals, Drinks, Happy Hour |

Last night we were invited to Exchange Bar and Grill in honor of its official opening (it’s been in a soft-opening stage for a few weeks). Laura had a prior commitment, so I headed over with McKenna (who does our design/tech stuff for the blog) to check out this new place. I’ve walked by it many, [...] April 9th, 2010 | Tags: $, $$, $$$, Bar, co-workers, Deal Alert, family, Friends, Gramercy, Happy Hour, Lounge | Category: Bar food, Deal Alert, Drinks, Happy Hour, Meals |

As we noted, 1834 Bar & Burger celebrated its VIP Grand Opening Party with free drinks and hors d’oeuvres on Tuesday. But the celebration doesn’t end there. In the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, there will be drink specials and a DJ playing all day today. And even better, starting tomorrow and lasting through Sunday, March 21st, [...] March 17th, 2010 | Tags: Bar, Beer, Burgers, Deal Alert, Deals, Financial District, Friends | Category: Burgers, Deal Alert, Deals, Drinks |
