Our mission: To seek out downtown happy hour destinations where we can fill our bellies for $10 or less. The good news is that there are a ton of hot, hip fantastic options. That’s right, a table for two can enjoy cocktails and hearty appetizers and drop a $20.00 plus tip. So come along the LAD happy hour trail and drink up!

Ten 01 offers the best Happy Hour in town. Wonderful, fresh ice cold oysters for only $1.00 per piece. They also make wonderful drinks, including the textbook martini with top shelf Hendricks gin and premium stuffed olives as featured in this food. This bar is a classic.
