Summertime, and the livin' is ... EXPENSIVE! Here's where to find affordable happy hour options in Nashville.

📍 Brentwood

Enjoy happy hour at Ludlow & Prime, available in the bar, lounge, and patio Monday through Friday from 2:30 p.m. and Saturdays from 1 to 5 p.m. Treat yourself to their drink specials starting at $3, along with $1 oysters and $2 deviled eggs.

📍 Sylvan Park

Rock out to half-priced sushi and $2 domestic beers every day from 3 to 6 p.m. at Punk Wok. If that doesn’t make you want to join a mosh pit, then I don’t know what will.

📍 The Nations

What a deal! All day, every Wednesday, Otto’s Bar hosts “Wine Down Wednesdays,” where you can join your neighbors for a $5 house red, white, or rosé. They also offer happy hour specials Monday through Friday from 4 to 6 p.m. that you should check out as well.

📍East Nashville

Supporting PTOs of schools in and around Nashville, Lockeland Table invites you to join their 'community hour,' available Monday through Saturday from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. Take a seat and enjoy incredible food and drink specials while also contributing to a great cause.

📍Germantown

Sedona Taphouse offers special deals every single day of the week and a regular happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 to 6:30 p.m. Tuesdays feature “Bubbles & Bourbon,” with $5 sparkling brut or a standard old fashioned, and a “dine out for charity” menu available every Monday.

📍 East Nashville

With these unbelievable happy hour specials every day 5 to 7 p.m. and some of the best vibes n’ fries in town, you’ll be sure to become a regular at the Inglewood Lounge.

📍 The Gulch

Gotta love a late night happy hour from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. on Thursdays through Sundays at Bar Louie, where you can enjoy $5 shots and half-priced bar snacks with all your friends.
