The 18 Best Happy Hours in Las Vegas

Yard House

Yard House at LINQ is one of the best spots on the Strip if you want casual dining with an incredible view. The spacious outdoor patio has clear views of the High Roller, and the menu has the elevated American cuisine we never tire of. The menu includes burgers, street tacos, sliders, pasta, vegetarian dishes, and more!

The lively restaurant has happy hour Monday to Friday from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The happy hour specials include $5-$8 appetizers, $3 off House Martinis, and $4 off craft and import Half Yards. 

There’s also $1 off Domestic Pints and well drinks, plus $2 off Craft and Import pints, house wine by the glass, and specialty cocktails. 

The menu includes more than 180 types of beer, so it’s never difficult to find something tasty. We love the specialty cocktails on the menu at Yard House, especially when they’re at a discounted price!

High Roller Happy Half Hour

The High Roller at LINQ offers one of the most unique views of the Las Vegas Strip. The wheel goes 550 feet above the ground with 360-degree views for as far as the eye can see. This is an absolute must-try activity in Vegas if you haven’t done it before!

While the High Roller is open to all ages, there are special tickets for a Happy Half-Hour ride for ages 21 and up. 

Happy Half Hour tickets start at $60 per person. Your ticket includes a 30-minute ride on the High Roller with one exciting and boozy twist. 

The High Roller cabins used for happy half-hour tickets have a full bar and bartender ready to serve you during your ride. Did we mention it’s an open bar?! That means you can order as many drinks as you want during the ride with no added cost. 

This is hands down one of the most exciting Las Vegas happy hours, and you can capture some incredible photos along the way.

To make your Happy Half Hour even more entertaining, a narrator will share trivia, point out landmarks, and educate you on the history of Sin City. 

The High Roller is open daily from 12:00 PM to 12:00 AM for traditional and Happy Half Hour rides.

Margaritaville

Margaritaville at Flamingo Las Vegas will have you in an island state of mind from the moment you walk into the restaurant. Margaritaville is owned and inspired by Jimmy Buffet, so needless to say, there are good vibes all around! 

The multi-level restaurant has two outdoor patios, a Caribbean-inspired menu, and all-day happy hour deals.

No matter what time you visit Margaritaville, it’s always happy hour! The restaurant is open from 8 AM to 11:00 PM Sunday to Thursday and 8 AM to 12 AM Friday and Saturday. 

In true Las Vegas fashion, the happy hour specials are offered in a lucky 777 format. That includes $7 domestic draft beers, $7 well drinks, and $7 house margaritas.

This is one of our favorite spots to go for happy-hour drinks because there’s never a bad time to go! The food menu is laid-back yet delicious, and the atmosphere of the island-themed restaurant can’t be beaten. 

STK Las Vegas

STK Las Vegas at Cosmopolitan is a dimly lit, ultramodern steakhouse that just so happens to have an incredible happy hour menu. Happy hour deals are available from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM Monday to Thursday and 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM on Friday. 

During happy hour, guests can enjoy half-off specialty craft cocktails and $10 glasses of Justin Cabernet or Whispering Angel Rose. In addition to the drink specials, you can try seven different small bites for $7. 

We like to order a couple of different bites from the happy hour menu for a variety of flavors while we sip our discounted cocktails. Considering the usually steep menu prices at STK, the happy hour deals are just too good to pass up.

When you step inside STK, there’s an undeniably sexy vibe thanks to the decor and in-house DJ. This is one of the hottest restaurants at Cosmopolitan for celebrities, tourists, and anyone who loves good American steakhouse dining.

BRERA Osteria

BRERA Osteria at The Venetian inside the Grand Canal Shoppes serves authentic Italian cuisine in the heart of S Las Vegas Blvd. We aren’t exaggerating when we say this is some of the best Italian cuisines in the Las Vegas Valley! 

Whether you stay for dinner or just pregame with happy hour deals, BRERA Osteria is sure to be a restaurant you visit more than once.

Happy Hour is from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM daily, but in true Italian style, it’s called Aperitivo Hour. During Aperitivo Hour, you can order half-priced pizza, draft beer, house wines by the glass, and craft cocktails.

The restaurant decor makes it feel like you’re dining in Venice without ever leaving the Strip. This is one of the more underrated happy hours on the Strip, so you’ll never feel cramped or be left waiting to get seated. 

Jaleo

Jaleo is a Spanish Tapas restaurant at The Cosmopolitan Las Vegas. Not to be confused with a traditional Mexican restaurant, the menu at Jaleo is much more refined, with a focus on small bites and shareable plates. 

The restaurant calls their happy hour Sangria Hour, and it’s available from 5 PM to 7 PM from Sunday to Thursday. 

During Sangria Hour, guest-favorite tapas and select specialty cocktails are priced so you can try the Jaleo menu at a fraction of the cost. The Spanish Bramble craft cocktail costs $8 per serving, and the Margarita Donostiarra costs $12. Select beer draft beer is available for $6 per glass, and select wines are $8 per glass.

Sangria and sparkling sangria is $7 per glass or $40 by the porrón (essentially a wine pitcher). A mix of beer and house-made lemonade is priced at $15 by the porrón and is a customer favorite! In addition to happy hour drink deals, there are several tapas discounted.

We tried the Endibias, which are Endive leaves filled with goat cheese, almonds, and oranges, for $7. The bottle and board deal for $75 caught our eye too! With this special, you get a cheese and charcuterie board paired with your choice of a bottle of red, white, or sparkling wine. 

Jaleo is one of the best Las Vegas happy hours when you want to get away from traditional American bar bites and indulge in authentic Spanish flavors.

Downtown Cocktail Room

The Downtown Cocktail Room is one of the most popular spots for delicious cocktails in the Las Vegas Valley. After a few minutes inside, you’ll understand why! 

The intimate cocktail room is dimly lit with chic decor, an in-house DJ, and a creative menu of drinks and small bites.

Happy hour specials are available from 5 PM to 8 PM from Tuesday to Saturday with half-off well-drinks, call spirits, beer, punch bowls, and wine by the glass. There are also seasonal drink specials with cocktails for $10. 

This is the oldest continually operating bar in Downtown Las Vegas, and it shows. From the flavor of the cocktails to the presentation, nothing is served unless it’s perfect.

Keep in mind that this is not a restaurant! This isn’t the happy hour for you if you want a full meal or shareable appetizers with your drinks. 

8 East Circa

8 East is located at Circa Las Vegas on Fremont Street. The iconic location is just the start of the fun, though! The restaurant puts a unique spin on pan-Asian cuisine. 

The atmosphere is high-energy and tends to attract a younger crowd, but you’re never too old for a good time!

Happy hour deals are available daily from 3 PM to 5 PM. During happy hour you can order $6 draft beers, well drinks, and sake bombs. There are also $8 plates of chicken wings and their famous pork belly bao. 

You may come for the happy hour specials, but you’ll be staying (and returning!) for the unbelievably tasty food. 

Commonwealth

Commonwealth is not only one of the best Las Vegas happy hours downtown, but it’s also one of the best bars in the area, no matter what the hour is! The two-story cocktail bar feels airy, artsy, and vibrant. 

There’s an in-house DJ, a rooftop dance floor, and an incredible view of Fremont Street down below. This is a true cocktail bar, so there is no restaurant on-site.

Happy hour is on Fridays and Saturdays from 7 PM to 9 PM. Happy hour specials include $5 Coors Light, Bud Light, and PBR. Well-drinks with whiskey, vodka, tequila, rum, or gin are also $5. For $7, you can order house wines by the glass or Dos Equis Lager. 

Dino’s Lounge

Dino’s Lounge on the Las Vegas Strip is a casual bar that draws a very diverse crowd. It’s LGBTQIA+ friendly, and everyone is just there to have a good time! You won’t feel pressured to dress up or do anything other than drink and laugh.

Dino’s late-night happy hour is called the Graveyard Special because it’s perfect for people working the graveyard shift! From midnight to 8 PM Sunday to Wednesday, there are $7 PBR pitchers and $4 Jameson shots. 

Play some 50-cent games of pool and unwind after a long shift, or start the morning off right, depending on what your Vegas day looks like!

Starboard Tack

Starboard Tack is a bar with a retro atmosphere and laid-back, watering-hole vibe. The bar is open 24/7, so a late-night happy hour is a must! From midnight to 3 AM, there are pina coladas for $5, $5 well drinks, and half-off rum drinks. 

There’s nothing about Starboard Tack that’s special to Las Vegas, so this bar tends to be more popular with locals than tourists. 

SUGARCANE Raw Bar & Grill

If you’re searching for happy hour drinks after dinner, SUGARCANE Raw Bar & Grill at Venetian is a great option. This is one of the later Las Vegas happy hours on the Strip, with specials from 10 PM to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

The happy hour deals include $8 wine by the glass, select cocktails, and $7 beers. The happy hour menu also features lower prices on some of SUGARCANE’s most popular menu items, like Korean chicken wings, bacon-wrapped dates, shrimp cocktail, and a mini salmon poke bowl.   

Blondies Sports Bar & Grill

Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood is one of the best places to go for a casual drink on the Las Vegas Strip because there are so many options! Blondies Sports Bar & Grill puts an interesting spin on a traditional happy hour menu. 

Instead of lowering the cost of drinks, this Miracle Mile Shops bar offers all-you-can-drink well-spirits and draft beer for just $20.

The all-you-can-drink special goes late from 10 PM to 1 AM, Monday to Friday. You can also catch their earlier happy hour from 3 PM to 6 PM. 

RA Sushi Bar Restaurant

Ra Sushi Bar at Fashion Show Mall is not only one of our favorite sushi spots in Vegas, but it’s also home to a wide array of late-night happy-hour deals! After all, who doesn’t want to save a few bucks on their spicy tuna rolls?!

The happy hour menu is available from 10 PM to close Monday to Saturday and 3 PM to close on Sunday. Sake, highballs, and wine by the glass are all discounted. You can also order margaritas, mules, nigiri, specialty sushi rolls, and dumplings at a discounted rate. 

If you’re just stopping for a drink, the bar area has comfortable seating, or you can dine in if you plan to order more happy hour specials. 

Casa Calavera

Casa Calavera is a Day of the Dead-inspired restaurant and cantina located off the Strip. While the food and drinks are good any day of the week, they’re the best on Sundays! Sunday brunch starts at 10 AM with a live mariachi band at 12 PM. After brunch, happy hour begins from 3 PM to 5 PM with $7 food, beer, and cocktails.

Eureka

Eureka is a restaurant and bar that has nailed the concept of a good happy hour. While there’s a traditional happy hour during the week, it goes all day on weekends! Order bloody mary and mimosas to your heart’s content for just $7 per serving from 11 AM to 12 AM on Sunday. 

The menu is diverse, from truffle french fries to a fresh watermelon chicken salad. 

Night + Market

Night + Market is a Thai restaurant and bar that never disappoints. Their happy hour deals are available Sunday to Thursday from 5 PM to 7 PM and 9 PM to close. 50% off bottles of wine, discounted bar snacks, and specialty cocktails for $9 are impossible to resist.

The restaurant sticks to authentic Thai flavors and recipes that pair perfectly with the happy hour cocktails. 

Sickies Garage Burgers & Brews

Sickies Garage Burgers & Brews is a classic American burger joint. They have happy hour from 3 PM to 6 PM from Sunday to Friday, and the discounts are almost too good to be true! You can order a burger, a side, and a Bud Light for just $10.99. Select appetizers are $7.99, and there are discounts for draft beer and well drinks too. 

• Most Las Vegas restaurants with a bar offers happy hour specials! Doing a little research before you choose a place to eat can help you save big on drinks.
• Happy hours in Las Vegas are different from other cities. It’s never too late, too early, or the wrong day of the week to find a good happy hour deal.
• Most happy hours focus on well-drinks, house wines, and domestic draft beers. Happy hours that include specialty cocktails or food are a nice perk, though!
• Happy hours make it affordable to try new cuisine and explore new areas of Las Vegas Valley.
