Is it 5 O’Clock Yet?
After a long day at the office, nothing beats a drink with a friend at your favorite watering hole – especially when it’s happy hour! Worthington is home to a number of fantastic bars and restaurants, many of which offer great happy hour specials.
Here are four great spots you'll want to try:
House Wine
In the mood for a glass of vino? Head over to House Wine. With more than 500 carefully selected labels in stock, there’s no shortage of wines to taste. They recently launched a new and improved happy hour with 25 percent off all Enomatic wine pours, like Leitz Dragonstone Riesling, a personal favorite of Donnie Austin, owner and sommelier. You’ll also receive a complimentary cheese plate with a $10 Enomatic purchase. If beer is more your style, they’re offering $2 off craft beer by the glass, flight or growler and $1 off bottled craft beer.
Happy Hour: Mon.- Fri. 2 to 6 p.m.
Best tip: Have a case of the Mondays? No worries! House Wine offers Uncork/Screw Monday. You’ll enjoy your favorite wine by the bottle with no corkage fee.
La Chatelaine French Bakery & Bistro
We recently featured La Chatelaine as a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee on your way to work, but did you know it’s also a fantastic spot for happy hour? Stop in for a $5 glass of Sonoma Valley red or white wine or an Italian Pinot Grigio and $5 French cocktails, such as Kir Royal, La Chat martini and Pastis. And don’t forget about La Chatelaine’s delicious small plates. Guests will enjoy a rotating selection of appetizers like homemade charcuterie, Pomme Frites and Salman Tartare Tartine for just $5.
