2-for-1 Happy Hours in NYC
Updated · refreshes daily
In short: 9 bars on this list, 9 with the deal spelled out. The cheapest drink we have on file: $1 at Papacito's. Most start at 4pm. Most are in Greenpoint, Long Island City, Clinton Hill.
A 2 for 1 happy hour in NYC means you pay for one drink and the bar pours a second of the same kind. It is the rarest format on our list: only a small group of bars flag it, against the many that simply set a lower price. Most of them are in Manhattan, from Kingston Hall in the East Village and Rockbar Nyc on Christopher Street to VERS in Hell's Kitchen and Sojourn Social on the Upper East Side. Brooklyn adds Papacito's in Greenpoint and Bati Ethiopian Kitchen on Fulton Street, and Queens has an entry in Long Island City.
What gets doubled varies a lot. Kingston Hall covers beer, prosecco and well drinks, Rockbar Nyc adds call liquor, Sojourn Social lets you mix and match signature cocktails, draft beer and wine, and VERS keeps it to well drinks. Weekday windows are the norm, but a few of these bars run the deal every day. Ask whether the free drink comes with the first one or on the next round, since bars handle it differently, and remember the deal ends with the window.

What actually gets doubled
Most 2-for-1 offers on our list cover the cheaper end of the bar: beer, well drinks and sometimes prosecco. Rockbar Nyc stretches it to call liquor, and Sojourn Social to signature cocktails and wine by the glass. Weekday windows dominate; Kingston Hall, Papacito's and VERS are the ones that keep the deal going on Saturday and Sunday, so plan weekend rounds around them.
Before you go
The menu price leaves out New York's 8.875 percent sales tax, and servers expect a tip of 18 to 20 percent; tipping on both drinks, not just the one you paid for, is good form. Some deals apply only at the bar. Each listing shows the date we last checked it, and offers like these change, so look at that date first.
