Fiddlesticks Pub: $11 Cocktails and $8 Guinness Until 7pm
Fiddlesticks Pub runs its happy hour weekdays until 7pm at 56 Greenwich Ave in the West Village. Cocktails are $11, Guinness is $8, wine is $10, and five bar bites are $10 each. On Sundays the happy hour starts at 4pm and runs to close.
The verdict: a good weekday pub deal, mostly because of the food. Wings, nachos, loaded fries, a smash burger taco and shepherd’s pie for $10 each make this a real early dinner, and $8 Guinness is easy to live with. The catch is the window. The sheet says weekdays until 7pm, and the bar opens at 5pm Monday to Wednesday and 4pm Thursday and Friday, so that’s two or three hours. The Sunday prices aren’t listed, so don’t assume they match the weekday sheet.
