Nothing says “happy” quite like happy hour. And White Plains has plenty of options, from the city’s first brewery to marble restaurants bars. You can thank us now (or over a half-priced drink later).
Cantina Taco & Tequila Bar
166 Mamaroneck Ave; 914.461.3959
Did someone say tacos and tequila? Tuesday’s are for tacos, with $3 choice tacos all day. Wednesday’s are for tequila, with $2 house tequila shots. Monday’s will make you smile with $2 empanadas all day.
Plus, daily happy hour runs 3–7 p.m. and includes $7 margaritas in fresh flavors like cucumber and coconut.
Little Drunken Chef
91 Mamaroneck Ave; 914.615.9300
The global tapas menu is perfect for sharing at Bonnie Saran’s second location of Little Drunken Chef (the other is in Mount Kisco). The lunch happy hour, offered Monday through Friday until 3 p.m., is made for slipping out of the office for wine by the glass, popsicle sangria, and cocktails ($8 each), or a draft beer for only $5. Try a Russian Mule, best paired with cocktail samosas and outdoor seating.
Lilly’s
169 Mamaroneck Ave; 914.997.5600
Pull up a barstool and enjoy $5 draft beers, wines, and a weekly cocktail special at the bar from Monday to Friday, 4–7 p.m. The bar-only deal also extends to oysters — get a half dozen for just $6 — and runs until close on Thursday nights.
Mediterraneo
189 Main St; 914.448.8800
If you are looking to dine upscale, but keep your wallet in check, try Mediterraneo’s happy hour at the bar. Running 4–6 p.m. daily, the deal includes $3 beers, $5 house wine by the glass, and half-off Margherita pizzas.
Enjoy the beautiful view of downtown White Plains from the glass windows free of charge.
