Words by the YaY NYC team, Oct 17, 2026 · Deals last checked on each bar's own site Sep 2 to Nov 2, 2026 · 3 min read

Saturday and Sunday deals are more common than you might guess: plenty of bars on our list run a happy hour on at least one weekend day, and many of them run all seven days. The bars whose deal exists only for the weekend are rarer, and they tend to be afternoon affairs tied to brunch or a slow Sunday. Manhattan has most of the weekend list, led by Times Square, the Upper West Side, the East Village and the Upper East Side. Brooklyn comes next, with Williamsburg and Bushwick on top, followed by Queens.

A weekend happy hour in NYC tends to start earlier than the weekday version, sometimes in the late morning, and to wrap up by early evening. Plan around the afternoon rather than the night, and check which day applies, since a few bars cover only Saturday or only Sunday.

    4. Sir Henry’s

    sourdough Sausage Roll Bites $15
    Sat, Sun open to 4pm · 795 8th Ave

    Sir Henry's is a cocktail bar on Eighth Avenue near 50th Street whose happy hour runs only on Saturday and Sunday, until mid-afternoon. The menu leans on shareables, including sourdough sausage roll bites.

    5. Recette

    20% off drinks
    Sat, Sun 10am–3:45pm · 103 Havemeyer Street

    Recette is a French restaurant on Havemeyer Street in Williamsburg with a Saturday and Sunday daytime deal that, per its own menu, takes money off wine by the bottle. It runs from morning into the afternoon, so it pairs with a late brunch rather than an after-work drink. The G and L at Metropolitan Avenue are five minutes away.

    Via Trenta Osteria & Wine Bar is an Italian wine bar on 30th Avenue in Astoria with a happy hour Tuesday through Saturday, running from midday through the afternoon on Saturday. Saturday is the weekend day to go. The N and W at 30th Avenue are about six minutes away, and it takes reservations.

    Deal checked Oct 17, 2026 on the bar's own site.

Weekend-only or every day?

Most bars on this page run the same deal all week, so the weekend is just another day for them. The weekend-only deals are different: they tend to start in the late morning or early afternoon and finish before dinner, and several belong to restaurants that serve brunch. If you want a Sunday evening drink, look at the daily deals instead, because most weekend-only windows have closed by then.

Before you go

Restaurant deals are often limited to the bar, so ask before you sit down at a table. Every check in the city adds 8.875 percent sales tax, and servers expect a tip of 18 to 20 percent on top. Weekend hours shift more often than weekday ones, so check the last-checked date on each bar.
