Skybox Sports Bar: Friday 3–8pm Happy Hour in East Harlem
Skybox Sports Bar runs happy hour Friday from 3 to 8pm and Saturday from 9 to 11pm at 2241 1st Ave in East Harlem. The bar doesn’t publish happy hour prices, so there are no dollar figures to quote for it.
The verdict: Friday is the useful one. Five hours starting at 3pm is a long after-work window, and the bar opens at 3pm that day, so you can be first in. Saturday’s 9–11pm slot is a late, short one, and the bar bills it as exclusive. The catch is that nobody posts what’s discounted. The one price on the schedule is Wednesday’s $1 wings.
The Happy Hour
- Friday: 3–8pm
- Saturday: 9–11pm, billed as an exclusive happy hour
- Wednesday: $1 wings and karaoke, 6pm–1am
