Is it Friday yet? Or rather, is it happy hour yet? We're still getting back into the swing of things after the holidays, so this week has seemed especially long. Thankfully there are a few new happy hours that have popped up recently, giving us yet another reason to count down the minutes until 5 o'clock. Here are three options to help you make it through the week (and to soothe the fact that no, you did not win the Powerball):
Pitchoun: The new French bakery and cafe near Pershing Square recently added a solid happy hour to their repertoire, available Tuesday through Saturday, 4-7pm. Small bites will be offered alongside sangria, bellinis, mimosas and a weekly featured cocktail. Aperitifs include homemade terrine, tartes, spinach filled beignets and more.
Knuckle & Claw: Head to the Silver Lake lobster shack on Thursdays for their new #goshuckyourself special: half off beer and wine, along with $1 oysters. The deal runs from 5-10pm, after that you can keep the night going across the street at Thirsty Crow (which also has a fantastic happy hour).
Broken Spanish: The wildly successful Spanish restaurant from chef Ray Garcia just launched their "Hora Especial," available Monday through Thursday, 5:30-7pm. Bar director Mike Lay has crafted three new cocktails for the occasion, including the Salsipuedes (mezcal, lime, ginger, pineapple and habanero) and La Grenada (tequila, elderflower, lime, pomegranate, mint and angostura). Specials are only available on the patio corral and at the bar.
