Cantina Valencia Staten Island Happy Hour: Weekdays 3–7pm
Cantina Valencia, a Tex-Mex restaurant and tequila bar at 1674 Richmond Road on Staten Island, runs happy hour Monday to Friday from 3 to 7pm at the bar, plus a deal every weeknight from Monday to Thursday.
The verdict: the nightly specials beat the happy hour. 2-for-1 margaritas on Monday and 2-for-1 sangria pitchers on Thursday are concrete. The weekday happy hour, “booze and bite specials,” has no posted prices and is bar seating only.
The Happy Hour
- Monday to Friday: 3–7pm, bar only, drink and bite specials (prices not posted)
- Monday: 2-for-1 margaritas, frozen or rocks
- Tuesday: buy two tacos, get one free
- Wednesday: half-price specialty margarita flights and guacamole flights
- Thursday: 2-for-1 sangria, glass or pitcher
The Restaurant
Tex-Mex with a Cajun streak: fajitas on the skillet and jambalaya. Weekend brunch runs Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm with bottomless mimosas and bellinis. It’s open every day from 11am, and it’s part of a group that also runs Richmond Republic, The Hop Shoppe and District Bar NYC.
