Chicago happy hours that are actually happy
10
items I’m always annoyed by happy hours that start at 2 and end at 4 or the whole menu is over $10. Not very happy, so these are true happy hours found in Chicago

Westside
A happy hour that includes the weekend 👏🏾 and it goes from 5-6:30 so people actually have time to get off work. Oh, and everything on its menu is $6. Amazing in this economy
Revolver
A happy hour in West Loop that goes until 7pm so actually gives you time to make it after work. The prices are average: $10 cocktails, food $8-16, but they do have beer and wine for $6-8. They also have a $25 girl dinner which is probably the best de...
The VIG West Loop
Also a typical 4-6pm happy hour BUT, all drinks are under $9 and majority food under $9. The only thing $10 is Parmesan fries, but they’re bottomless for up to 4 people so a good deal 🔥 I’m a huge proponent for the food here, the wagyu burger 👌🏾 D...
The Oakville Grill & Cellar
It’s RARE when you find a late night happy hour in Chicago but they’ve done it! $4 shots, $8 margaritas, $8 pizzas, etc. from 9pm-midnight. They also have more margarita flavors than you’d typically find like raspberry and blueberry. I recommend gett...
New Line Tavern
Majority of their happy hour menu is under $10, with majority food items being $6. I recommend the white sangria and the patatas bravas 💯 they also have a huge outdoor patio
Boqueria Fulton Market
Northside
They have happy hour every day, from open until 6:30pm and all day on Sundays 🙌🏾 a full menu might I add of drinks, appetizers, and full sushi rolls. The shishito peppers are a must as well as the mango crab rangoons
Blue Sushi Sake Grill
A happy hour from 12-6pm Monday thru Friday??? Unheard of. AND, everything on the menu is under $10 (food & drinks might I add) 👏🏾 you love to see it
AMBAR Restaurant
Their happy hour is the typical 4-6pm but it’s everyday, so you can even catch it on the weekend! The menu has $2 beignets (a must try!), 50% off appetizers, and $8 frozen cocktails.
Storyville Chicago
Happy hour on Thursdays, Fridays, & Saturdays from 5-8pm?? Truly unheard of in Chicago. And it would be unbeknownst to me not to mention the drinks are $5! It’s select drinks but there’s variety to choose from whether your vibe is beer, wine, or ...
Stardust
In the Loop
They have several locations with happy hour from 4-6pm. Some even include food on the menu, but unfortunately this one didn’t, BUT all the drinks on the HH menu are $8 or less and you know I live to see single digit prices on a HH menu. This one is c...
