Sometimes the work week can be tough and we need a little more pick-me-up than the standard 7pm cut-off happy hour.
We've compiled a list of 8 bars to check out that keep the cheap drinks and parties going late.
Whether you're looking to end the party at midnight or stay out until 3am, these bars offer a wide variety of drink specials for your night out.
Verlaine
The 17-foot ceilings and dim lighting is nothing short of swanky at this bar in the heart of the Lower East Side. They're famous for the exceptionally strong lychee martinis and classic cocktails with a twist.
Besides the great happy hour, they showcase local artist's photography, paintings and poetry once a month, and offer Southeast Asian-inspired tapas. Sip on a martini or sangria with five spice calamari and you're set.
Happy Hour: Sunday - Monday 5pm to 10pm; $4 martinis, sangria, house wine, Vietnamese bloody mary and 2 for 1 bottles of Yuengling.
