Ever want to go eat something, drink something, find a place online with great reviews, and realize that it’s way fancier than you wanted? This is happy hour without all the trappings. Just some good cheap eats and cheap drinks.
Poison Girl
Dark dive bars are great, but sometimes they can also be a bit oppressive. Poison Girl features a nice outdoor patio, perfect for the warmer months and your vitamin D levels. You can’t go wrong with $2 wells and $3 draft beer with a small, but excellent rotating selection. The biggest draw is the whiskey.

Sunny’s Bar
Did you know that there is a regulation size for professional foosball? Now that you do, settle for nothing less. Sunny’s Bar has regulation foosball tables, a jukebox, karaoke, and $1 jello shots. Everything you could ever need.

La Calle Tacos
There are exactly three things about La Calle Tacos that earned it this place on this list. First, they have a happy hour from 3 PM to 7 PM. Two, that happy hour is also applicable to tacos, $1 tacos. Three, they’re open until 3 AM, so even once last call is over, last call for tacos isn’t for another hour.

Grand Prize Bar
Admittedly, this bar is a little more of a “faux-dive” than an actual dive bar, but it’s still in a bit of a hidden spot and definitely has a local, very hip feel. There are even cocktails with names like “Weekend at Bernie Sanders.” Plus, it’s dog-friendly, which is always a winning policy.

Houston, TX 77006
Lola’s Depot
Make this your go-to Tuesday spot. Why? Because we’re talking all day happy hour, that’s why. At $1.75 for well drinks you can drink like it’s the weekend without having to sell your kidney (or whatever it is people do for money nowadays… jobs?).

Three Sheets Bar & Grill
The attraction at Three Sheets Bar & Grill is the karaoke. Well, and the karaoke lubricant they also sell. They’ve got $2.75 Wells and $2.50 domestics, and an all day happy hour on Wednesdays, so the day after you’re at Lola’s, you can come here and do it all over again.
