Living in New York City has countless perks. There are heaps of job opportunities, millions of people to meet, museums, parks, concerts, outdoor adventures, amazing restaurants… the list goes on forever. Everyone has different interests, but happy hour tends to be one activity that a lot of New Yorkers love to partake in. NYC is convenient because no matter where you work or live you can pretty much always find some great happy hour deals near you or near the closest subway station.
Here are some great happy hours in Midtown East that are worth checking out!

They also have a number of meals and appetizers at discounted happy hour prices, like a Spicy Tuna Volcano Roll for $6. The specials run everyday from 11:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
