Happy hour in New York City can sometimes feel like a financial transaction. But at Conwell Coffee & Cocktail Hall, the deal is refreshingly straightforward: three items for $25, served inside a historic bank building in the heart of the Financial District.
Dubbed the FiDi Happy Meal, the offer includes your choice of a steak sandwich or Caesar salad, a side of tater tots, and a martini. Yes, all three for $25. Consider it a small win for anyone whose lunch account has been taking a beating.
Happy Hour With a Vault-Worthy Setting
The setting is part of the appeal. Conwell Coffee & Cocktail Hall invites guests to dine inside a historic vault, giving after-work drinks a little more atmosphere than the usual crowded neighborhood bar. Think architectural character, jazzy music and a space that works just as well for catching up with friends as it does for settling in with a laptop.
And if the $25 combination isn’t tempting enough, the regular happy hour lineup brings another reason to stop by: $2 oysters and $12 martinis or espresso martinis.
