Margaritaville

Whether you’re a Jimmy Buffet fan or not, Margaritaville is an experience and a half. Where else can you find a two-story replica of the Statue of Liberty raising a margarita (I’ll drink to that). While Jimmy insisted Margaritaville is a lifestyle – here that translates into a resort hotel with restaurants and bars. Good news is that you don’t have to be a guest to add this to your list of things to do in Times Square.

There are 5 different spots to grab a bite at Margaritaville, including its namesake restaurant and 5 O’Clock Somewhere Bar. Expect classic American foods as well as plentiful adult beverages in a setting that can almost make you forget you’re in New York City. I frequently recommend this spot as one of the best happy hours in Times Square – where else can you get $8 margaritas in this city?

Whether you’re a Jimmy Buffet fan or not, visiting Margaritaville is an unforgettable experience. Named after the American musician’s hit song, Margaritaville, the hotel & urban resort has a sunny Florida feel in the middle of Manhattan.

There are four bars inside Margaritaville, but the namesake Margaritaville Bar and Restaurant is home to the best happy hour in Times Square. You’ll get to partake in $6 domestic draft beer, $7 well drinks, and $8 house margaritas.
