Happy hour beer for $5 or less in NYC

227 bars on this list pour a happy hour beer at $5 or less. The lowest is $3 at Chino Grande in Williamsburg, 6 to 7:30pm today. Every price here comes off that bar's own happy hour list, and the order is by the cheapest happy hour beer at each bar, lowest first.

75 of the 227 bars on this list have a happy hour window today. 4pm is the most common start: 29 of today's 76 windows open then. The longest runs 11am to 12am at Siena Cafe • Italian • Brunch • Dinner • Lunch on the Upper East Side. The rest pour on other days, or have a happy hour price with no schedule yet. Each bar page shows whichever of the two we have.

Usually, though not always by much. Every price on this page is a happy hour price, and each bar page keeps that list apart from the regular menu. Where a bar prices the same beer both ways, its page states the difference between them, so you can see the size of the deal rather than take our word for it.
