O'Neill's Maspeth: Friday Happy Hour With a Free Bar Buffet
O’Neill’s, at 64-21 53rd Drive in Maspeth, runs its happy hour on Friday from 4pm to 6pm, with a complimentary buffet at the bar. Tuesday adds half-price glasses of wine and $15 select pasta entrées from 4pm to 10pm.
The verdict: one window a week is thin, but a free buffet at the bar is a happy hour in the old sense, and it’s the reason to go on a Friday. O’Neill’s opened the day Prohibition ended in 1933 and has been family-run since. The drink prices for Friday aren’t posted.
