There should be a special siren to sound, a symbol to shine through the night sky, a whistle to blow that assembles all of your best friends for a night out (okay fine, it’s over 100 unread messages in an endless group text). No one knows you like your best girls, so gather the gang to have a special night out on the town in some of Westchester’s top restaurants at prices that may cause a double take. And if you find yourself humming Kool & The Gang by the end of this article, maybe it’s time to hit up your bestie group chat and plan a ladies’ night of your own.
Bellacosa Wine and Tapas Bar
147 Main St, Dobbs Ferry; 914.693.6259
Don’t let the rustic feel and brick-backed atmosphere fool you: Bellacosa Wine and Tapas Bar is churning out an upper-echelon culinary experience. If you happen to be dining on such fare such as lamb pops and shrimp scampi on a Thursday, extend your stay — and your bar tab. From 7 p.m. to 11 p.m., the restaurant throws its ladies’ night, with gals paying only $10 for any cocktail, martini, or glass of wine.

Heritage 147
147 Larchmont Ave, Larchmont; 914.292.5320
Thursday nights are for refinement and specialty cocktails at Heritage 147’s elevated ladies’ night. From 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., sip on handcrafted cocktails like The Botanist (vodka, lemon, Cointreau, and lavender) and Fresh Squeeze (gin, Starlino orange, St. Germaine, and citrus) for $10 apiece. Nosh on some of the best farm-to-table snacks Heritage has to offer, like potatoes bravas with a garlic aioli for $5 and the hot honey fried chicken for $12.

Laughing Horse Coffee & Tea
6 Purdy St, Harrison; 914.603.7026
Laughing Horse is everything we love about life: the ability to seamlessly go from sipping coffee to champagne with one tick of a clock’s hand. On Thursdays and Fridays, the coffee shop (yes, that also sells craft beer and wine) holds ladies’ nights, with rotating and carefully curated specialty drinks. Snuggle into the couches and practice your best Rachel Green impressions.
Sonora Restaurant
179 Rectory St, Port Chester; 914.933.0200
A pillar of Westchester’s culinary community for over two decades, Sonora is synonymous with immaculate vibes and scrumptious tapas. Celebrate the upcoming arrival of Friday (yes, that means it’s a Thursday night…) with a ladies’ night at the beloved fusion hot spot. Laden with seasonal options that are constantly changing and shifting from whatever pops into the mind of Chef Rafael Palomino, what better way to spend an evening out with friends than by having an all-star chef surprise you with his creation of the day?

Not exclusively ladies, but good enough…
Greca Mediterranean Kitchen
189 Main St, White Plains; 914.448.8800
While not ladies’ night by definition, Greca’s Social Hour(s) is a great place to gather the troops for a fun evening out but not fun enough that work tomorrow is an impossibility. From Monday through Thursday, 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the bar top and bar tables, Greca offers $10 cocktails, $9 wine, $7 beer, and small plates such as duck wings tossed in a lemony dressing with crumbled feta starting at $7. At that point, how can anyone not be social?

Don Coqui
107 Mamaroneck Ave, White Plains; 914.576.7676
Don Coqui is very upfront with what you and your friends can expect when strutting towards the velvet ropes. Sexy Saturdays, as they’re advertised, run until 8 p.m. and have a $5 trifecta: house drinks, selected appetizers, and sangria at the bar. Now that’s a sexy price point.
