Jackson Heights sits in northwest Queens, and the elevated 7 train over Roosevelt Avenue ties our list together. Most of the bars are closest to the 82nd Street and 90th Street-Elmhurst Avenue stations, either on Roosevelt itself or north of it on 37th Avenue and Northern Boulevard, where Barzola, Raices Colombianas, Uncle Peter's, Fabrika and Addictive Wine and Tapas line up. At the western end, Upstairs Cocktail Bar and Ovidio's are near the 69th Street stop, and Sabay Thai is two minutes from the big Roosevelt Avenue hub.

The drinks lean Latin: margaritas, mojitos, piña coladas, sangria and pisco cocktails, along with wine by the glass and plates like mussels. Long afternoon windows are common, with Barzola, Bistro Eloise and Raices Colombianas starting their Jackson Heights happy hour early in the day. Tip: the Northern Boulevard spots are a ten- to twelve-minute walk from the 7, so plan your route before hopping between them.
