Happy Hour in Las Vegas

Food and Drink Specials During Happy Hour in Las Vegas

By , About.com Guide

Late in the day, early afternoon or right before closing time, happy hour is defined so many ways in Las Vegas, but it guarantees you'll always be able to find a drink special on the Las Vegas strip.

1. Happy Hour at the C Bar Stratosphere

If you are searching for a good Happy Hour in Las Vegas you might want to consider the C Bar at the Stratosphere Hotel Las Vegas. The casino bar in the heart of all the action at the stratosphere this is where you can start your evening and pretty much drink enough to eliminate the need to spend money on alcohol later in the evening. All you can drink for $19.99 5 to 9pm

2. Happy Hour at StripSteak at Mandalay Bay Las Vegas

Try the lounge menu at StripSteak during happy hour and you get half off. Enjoy $3 beers and cocktails for $7 and you are set to begin your evening at the Mandalay Bay Las Vegas. If you love a good steak try one of Michael Mina's precious offerings, personally one of my favorite places on the strip to have a piece of beef. Happy Hour means some decent drinks and some small plates that will keep you satisfied.

3. Happy Hour at First Food and Bar

Great happy hour at First Food and Bar because it happens twice. Get there at 3 and stay unitl 7 and then go out and do your thing. Do a little gambling, see a show, hit a club and then race back between 11 and 1 am and you get your second dose of happy hour at First food and bar.

4. Happy Hour at Hussong's Cantina Las Vegas

Head to Hussong's Cantina at Mandalay Place and you'll be treated to buy one, get one traditional margaritas and draft beers. Also, 24oz Tecate and tacos for $5. Sunday through Friday 4-7 pm and since you are there you might want tot treat yourself to the Elote. It is easily one of the biggest surprises on the Las Vegas strip.

5. Happy Hour at SEABLUE at MGM Grand Las Vegas

Oysters and Shrimp for $1 and $4 beers should get you in the door and you might start dreaming about the Scallop Ceviche and the Corn and Jalapeno Hush Puppies from the regular menu. Also at Happy Hour at SEABLUE, half-priced Salt and Pepper Calamari and Lobster Corn Dogs. Try to have only one of each and you'll be suffering withdrawals. 

6. Happy Hour at Nine Fine Irishmen at NY/NY Las Vegas

Sit outside with a view of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Las Vegas strip and enjoy drink specials and reasonably priced food at Nine Fine Irishmen at NY/NY during happy hour. However, if there is some music going on inside spend some time with your cheap drinks and appetizers inside mingling. 

7. Happy Hour at Diablo's at Monte Carlo Las Vegas

Happy hour everyday from 3 to 7 pm with $3 drinks that are chosen with a quick spin of the "Wheel of Sin." Sit at the bar, have some chips and salsa and people watch. There is always plenty to see at the bar at Diablo's.

8. Happy Hour at Tacos and Tequila

Happy Hour, Monday through Friday 3pm to 5pm gets you drink specials and tacos deals. Add in a couple of shots of tequila and your evening is off to a splendid start.

9. Happy Hour at Dragon Noodle Co. Las Vegas

Spicy Tuna Roll, and Salt and Pepper Calamari along with $5 Martini is my idea of Happy Hour in Las Vegas. If you are a fan of Sake they have it as well everyday from 3 pm to 7 pm at the Monte Carlo Las Vegas.
