Earlier this week, Laura (thoughts in italics) and I were lucky enough to visit West 3rd Common (full disclosure: we were invited to dine there. We are ethical bloggers!). West 3rd Common is owned by the same person who runs Common Ground, which our guest writer, Jenni, reviewed last week, and it just opened this [...]

Every once in awhile I find such a great deal that I feel the need to share it with everyone. I recently discovered Common Ground Bar in the East Village. The cozy and somewhat dark bar offers such a phenomenal happy hour special that you’ll [...]

So in case you didn’t know, Professor Thom’s has been closed since the beginning of February. I had some very disappointed friends who dressed up for their Lost trivia the night before the big season premiere only to learn upon arrival that it was closed temporarily (perhaps one member of said group was a tad embarrassed [...]

After much deliberation, Laura, Doug, McKenna and I headed over to Andreas’ in Gramercy for dinner and a few drinks last night. I had been there once before with my mom for brunch and I was pleased with the delicious bread basket served and my chicken Caesar salad, so I was happy to try it again [...]

In honor of Valentine’s Day, City Crab is offering a 20% discount on the purchase of their gift cards (starting at $25) for a limited time. If you’re tight on cash, but you still want to celebrate the holiday with your other half, then this could be a great option for you. Or for the [...]

But The Skint mentioned an upcoming event that made my [...]

It has been a long week, so I’m sure many of you may be looking for a happy hour spot this evening. Check out Professor Thom’s down in Union Square.
Need a few good reasons to convince your friends to go?

Every third Thursday there are a few Harpoon beers available - this week, 100 Barrel Series Ginger Wheat [...]

It’s Thursday and you need a drink, right? Why not kick back a few while doing something good for others?
Tonight at Van Diemens on 3rd Avenue between 27th and 28th Streets, you can enjoy an open bar from 6:30 – 7:30 pm and continue the party with half-priced drinks after 7:30 pm. Here’s the catch [...]

Next Wednesday, Nov. 18th, The Irish Rogue is hosting a special happy hour: free 25 oz cans of Foster’s beer from 6-8 pm while supplies last. They’ll also be handing out free koozies. To attend, RSVP by Nov. 17th by emailing oilcans@thrillist.com. Hope to see you there!

In the past month or so two coworkers won free happy hours at Public House (the same is true with Turtle Bay). What impresses me about Public House’s happy hour is that it’s free for 50 members of the winner’s party…not ½ off drinks like at Turtle Bay and not $20 all you can drink [...]
