Is there a happy hour at RedFarm?
RedFarm is the West Village’s playfully inventive take on dim sum, set inside an 1828 brownstone on Hudson Street with a lively, farmhouse-style room. The kitchen turns Chinese and pan-Asian cooking into something whimsical and Instagrammable – most famously the Pac-Man shrimp dumplings, alongside crispy beef, Ed’s pastrami egg rolls, and a rare dedicated gluten-free dim sum menu.
After a 2023 kitchen fire shut it for roughly two years, the flagship reopened with its full menu in September 2025, with the Decoy duck-and-cocktail speakeasy running downstairs Thursday through Saturday. It’s an upscale, occasion-worthy spot – great for date nights and groups who want creative food and a good cocktail rather than traditional Chinatown fare.
What to Expect
RedFarm does not run a happy hour. There’s no discounted time window or bar-special menu – the beverage program leans into craft cocktails plus thoughtful low-ABV and zero-proof options at full price. If you’re after a deal, this isn’t it; if you’re after Pac-Man dumplings and a fun room, it delivers.
The Room
A spirited, farmhouse-style dining room with communal-leaning tables, vintage water pitchers, and wine-box decor that keeps the energy up. Downstairs, the Decoy speakeasy is a moodier cocktail-and-Peking-duck lounge open Thursday through Saturday.
