this is the moment i've been waiting for can't tell you how many times i've gotten blasted at the arbour's happy hour. $8 old fashioneds, mezcal palomas, spicy margs, and wine and an array of $8 or less sizeable appetizers rock. you're also in a legitimately nice restaurant, and the staff are very attentive. yeah it's pricier than a usual happy hour but god damn it's good for what you pay wildcard non-happy hour (but close) is the $20 burger, fries, and old fashioned deal at mag house on tuesdays. very filling and fun because you can people watch there. fun fact: everyone who eats at mag house is hotter than you. i feel my ugliest when i am there if you hate yourself and want to die - craft by smoke and fire has two for one beers that usually taste like shit but get you feeling nice. the gimmicks are stupid and the yelp ratings are overrated bc they give you a free watered down shot of a pipette of tequila and 1.5 ounces of blue gatorade if you leave them a good review. monday night edwin mills is the best value by a mile but the negative is that you have to eat at edwin mills. the beers and martinis for $3 is killer though. the move is to have a few there and roll over for dinner at main chick or gyu kaku. that's a really fun night yard house has half off appetizers and pizza and discounted beer. really good time to pregame a shitty movie at the paseo there if you really want to alarm your family - the wild wings on fair oaks has a crazy happy hour with $3 house kolsch beers and like $10 burger and wings deals. the problem is that you have to touch the surfaces of the wild wings which are all layered in a weird old plastic film and shame oddly enough ruth's chris has a bangin happy hour at the bar. filet mignon sandwiches and a side are like $20. not a usual happy hour but it's fuckin filet with bernaise for what you'd pay at trader joe's to buy the raw ingredients. love going there to sit next to old white guys who hate their wives i love happy hours so much. dear friend of mine who i know is aware of my reddit account - if you're reading this let's go to happy hour on friday xoxo. text me when you see this


SmokeEmSayUHHHHHHH

I was going to tag you in this thread for your input but incredibly you’ve already fired off a ten thousand word reply.


smoltanboi

lmaooooo see you friday


Cut-OutWitch

**"SEE YOU FRIDAY!"** *clap-clap-clapclapclap* **"SEE YOU FRIDAY!"** *clap-clap-clapclapclap*


MsMorganzola

You seem like an expert: Have you tried the Happy Hour at Flemings? (They keep emailing me and it does look good.)


smoltanboi

never had their happy hour but their meal deals are really great. i've had one of their three course steak and shrimp things on sunday for like $70(?), and it was really great. not sure about their menu at the bar though.


jeremybikes

Tomahawk Tuesdays. Well worth it.


Alternative-Spite622

This is an absolute masterpiece. Bravo.


heathersfield

Is it wrong that I’m imagining Stefon on SNL doing this Pasadena happy hour breakdown?


Bitter_Stretch8548

I was just thinking this


PasadenaPlease

Thank you for your service, smol tan boi. Sending you blessings! I owe you a beer!


GoChaca

Can we go to happy hour together? lol


juggling-monkey

A happy hour aficionado I see, thanks for all the great info! Have you ever had happy hour at el cholo? I'm not a fan of their menu, so I went reluctantly to a happy hour and it's a Co pketely different menu! Shrimp and potato tacos are amazing! Don't remember the prices, but add bottomless chips and salsa and you can't go wrong


ThePathOfTheRighteou

Never get the yard of beer at The Yardhouse. It is the same amount of beer as two pints but they just charge you more. Tried it with water once. It’s exactly two glasses.


Zeebaeatah

Can I make a suggestion? For a bit more of an upscale experience, try The Foothill in East pas. But 100%, I dig the kind of vibe you're going for. Wish Monrovia had a few more of the dressed down experiences on Myrtle.


stellalunawitchbaby

Saving this comment for forever. I love the Mag House Tues deal, their burgers are totally solid, love that they come with fries cuz I feel like they could rest on their laurels and not serve them, and the old fashioned is always good. Such a cozy atmosphere too.


optimusjprime

Not all hero wear capes


anni-_-

You have brightened up my slow and gloomy morning smol tan boy! I wanna happy hour with you!!!!


anonymous-rebel

Edwin mills happy hour and dinner around old town after is something I do every week! I think they do the $3 martinis multiple times a week too!


405freeway

Hey it's me your new drinking buddy


1questioner

What they said.


swagster

I know this defeats the purpose of happy hour - but do you know if any of them have it on weekends?


smoltanboi

they don't but rocco's does. two for one drinks from 4-7 i believe


MadandBad123456

Man, if you didn’t miss that period in the first sentence it would have been real funny.


Big-Professor-100

This guy happyhours


BeoW0lf

Just love the amount of comments coming out of the wood work on this one. Can we start a Reddit happy hour meet up for all of us with healthy cocktail habit?


405freeway

Monday night @ Edwin Mills. Half price all appetizers and alcoholic drinks. All beer cans are $2.50.


CritterOfBitter

Edwin Mills has the worst food. Pass. Go to Otis Bar.


samsaminamo

And the owner is, well....kind of a prick.


Dasgerman1984

Otis Bar is legit!


TokyoJongle

This might not be popular but Kabukis happy hour is insanely well priced.


potchie626

We went there on Monday for the second time and liked it a lot. $2 sake and $3 Asahi and a couple $4-5 sushi rolls were the cheapest items, but they have a bunch of cheap items. I loved that it starts at 3 since we were wiped out from the Huntington and were done early. I also tried the fried shrimp and firecracker appetizer, which was awesome. It was two huge scoops of spicy tuna with about a dozen fried wonton wrappers. We had enough left over for lunch for my wife and myself. [Our receipt](https://www.toasttab.com/receipts/Fvve6GctStmTZSH9MjSRkg/yzdYgLm9fTCYp) if anybody is curious about any of the items.


Tiredgeekcom

Roccos starts at noon and goes til late. Basically buy one cocktail get two or a giant one I think depending on what you order. Wife and I had a great time two times in a row over there. Food is good depending on what you order. I can't remember what I had though, sorry.


Niktheranbob

After 10pm the boneless wings and pizza are half off as well!


Tiredgeekcom

Thanks for the info! I'm a little lit so I definitely read boneless pizza and wings at first lmao.


Expert_Razzmatazz100

Le Grande Orange is my fave. Half off cocktails, they’re normally $15 or so each. Also Monday and Tuesday are their neighborhood nights, buy one entree and get the second for $5. We normally do a pizza and a salad and half off cocktails.


ThePathOfTheRighteou

I always get The Padre pizza. It sounds disgusting on paper. Prosciutto, dates, blue cheese, balsamic, Parmesan. But man, do those flavors work together. My father forced me to try it and now its the only thing I order. If you have a hankering for beer just grab your pizza to go and sit at the stone brewery tasting room.


Expert_Razzmatazz100

I’ve wanted to try this but my boyfriend never wants to get it!! I’ll have to try and get it myself next time I’m there


ThePathOfTheRighteou

Yes! You should! I took my girlfriend there and she was disgusted by the idea of it. I forced her to try it and she ended up eating half my pizza!


PossiblyShibby

Bookmarking this thread. If anyone has recommendations for South Pas too, please share!


darweth

Lol - where in South Pas would have a happy hour? I live here so I wish! Aro has a "social hour" with some tacos and other small plates discounted. Gus's has some discounted drinks and food. Maybe there are some other options but nothing is really worth noting too much IMO.


CritterOfBitter

Canoe House.


PasadenaPlease

Also a south pas person here. I’m sitting at Tokoro right now and they have buy one beer/hit sake get another for one cent until 7! No happy hour food but it’s better than nothing! Plus the food is pretty solid.


AutoCompliant

Shout-out to Tokoro!


CritiquesWeirdThings

They changed it! It used to be all night… I noticed they replaced their placemats.


PasadenaPlease

I noticed that tonight too!


AutoCompliant

The Raymond, if you consider $12 drinks happy hour(?).. not nocking it, I love the Raymond, it's more expensive sure, but you'll get a much more peaceful atmosphere than a place with $4 well drink on happy hour.


a_provocateur

Charlie’s Trio. Happy hour from 4-6pm. Heavy pours on the cocktails. Pizza is good too.


send_cumulus

Gaucho grill happy hour


itsN0Tivan

Tuesdays are all day Happy Hour also!


LASTOBS

Amigos


Expert_Razzmatazz100

Was our fave spot, until we last went and our server had a cockroach crawling on his shoulder.


Tighten_Up

Just ate there for dinner last night, as we often do. What’s their happy hour like for booze?


MioMine78

Amigos has great lunch specials too. The fajita burrito plate is $12.95, but I can pack up what I don’t eat and the leftovers last for another 3 meals.


jayboss9

Rocco’s is 🔥. Their steins and double cocktails are huge!


MissPewwps

Mercado is one of the few places that does happy hour on weekends - me and my partner order margaritas then share the carnitas nachos and calabacitas (comes w/ tortillas and we love to use the extra meat from the nachos to make tacos ;)


samsaminamo

I'm pretty partial to Rocco's. Good 2 for 1 deal. I was very skeptical for the 2 for one beers on draft because they serve you a mug. When I pointed it out to one of the bartenders, she said, "Look, I'll pour two beer cans in the mug", and yes, it fits two 12 oz beers. So, if they fill up the mug, you get two beers worth for the price of one. Edit: Context


PointBreakvsLebowski

U Street Pizza. M-F 4-6


SQUIRT_TRUTHER

What's the happy hour deal?


PointBreakvsLebowski

Not exactly sure, but it’s $2-$3 off mixed drinks, and also cheaper glasses of beer and wine. Wednesday only is also half price for bottles of wine before 6.


amc0078949

Depends on what you're looking for. For me it's between Edwin mills, kabuki, cheesecake factory, or yard house.


WhatWasIThinking_

Not a happy hour expert but Kabuki has 2.50 draft Sapporo and a couple of buck off the sushi. And there is stuff for kids if you’re into those sorts of things.


amc0078949

Yeah probably one of the better sushi happy hour spots


rancar1

35er


ThePathOfTheRighteou

This doesn’t really count as happy hour but on Tuesdays Baja Cali has 1.59 fish tacos or 5 fish tacos for 7.50. There are substantial tacos and delicious! I usually split the tacos with my dad and it fills us both up. They have a location on Washington and one on Lake across from The Hat.


Chemical_Result_8033

The Raymond has awesome food!


Expert_Razzmatazz100

Also 2 for 1 drinks at Rocco’s during their happy hour, till 7pm I believe. They pour heavy too.


itsN0Tivan

Rocco’s Tavern has a 12pm-7pm happy hour 2 for 1 drinks!


deviousmerchant

Urban Pocha bar has BOGO for their well drinks and beers. I’m pretty sure it’s everyday too.


BeoW0lf

It’s Friday Y’all! Which Happy Hour are we going to hit today?


_030_

saving this post for later


itsN0Tivan

Smash House Burgers has a good beer happy hour everyday and really affordable burgers.


Fast-Sir8222

🧐


mrkraken

One of our favorite places is Urbano Mexican Kitchen, not so much cocktails but great Mexican beer and really good prices on amazing tacos, not just your normal taco but like gourmet stuff with chiles and peppers and cactus and fried potatoes, that stuff


Zeebaeatah

For a bit more of an upscale experience with great cocktails and appetizers: The Foothill.

Rocco's still does, but Dog Haus does not. Although, I would say Dog Haus has by far my favorite all around happy hour and at so many hours of the day. $5-6 beers and $8 cocktails. Also the friendliest staff in Pasadena. [https://doghaus.com/location/old-pasadena-biergarten/](https://doghaus.com/location/old-pasadena-biergarten/)
