Found my new happy hour spot: Ainslie Bowery 🍸 Wed/Thu/Fri 5-7pm + Sun 4-7pm, indoor and outdoor seating! Perfect happy hour vibes at an amazing price: • $12 cocktails (Midnight Daydream, Botanical Spritz, St. Germain Spritz) • $8 wine, $6 beer • $10 wood-fired 10” pizzas (six flavors) • $9 wings, $8 burrata, $6 fries Bonus: their honey deuce cocktail isn’t on the happy hour menu, but it’s worth ordering anyway! No need to go to Flushing for the US Open version, and it’s cheaper here too.
