An unassuming neighborhood joint, you could walk by Antler a dozen times before making the decision to step inside. That’s all part of the charm; it’s just a hole-in-the-wall friendly neighborhood bar. And true to form, this neighborhood bar has one of the best happy hours in the Lower East Side. $5 wine and beer allow you to unwind without the fear of being unable to afford dinner!

The quiet little bar is a great place for a casual hangout. It feels like a friend’s cozy house, with couches and small wooden tables perfect for chats with a friend while enjoying a can’t miss happy hour in the Lower East Side.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
