Everybody loves a good bargain. After a long day at the office, there's no better way to unwind than with a refreshing cocktail, cold beer or generous glass of wine. The restaurants of Joburg are happy to quench your thirst during Happy Hour(s), and below are my picks of the best in the city:
The Generator - Sandton
Blink and you might miss it. This steampunk-inspired spot is a quaint street side cafe found in the heart of Parkmore. From 9am, it's a quaint coffice you can go to set up your laptop and work uninterrupted. Between 4pm and 6pm, the eatery runs a daily happy hour(s) special where all cocktails are half price. Pull in any time on Fridays for their week ending R25 mojito special.
Capri Kitchen and Bar - Greenside
Greenside is home to some of the rowdiest pubs and watering holes in the city – the area really is a load of fun. Capri is one such place. Park alongside what looks like a food truck and enjoy a delicious jug for half price everyday between 4pm and 7pm. The special also includes R15 on selected wines and beer. The trendy establishment also hosts weekly comedy nights, open mics and live music sessions.
Black Tongue - Dainfern
You'll never experience anything like it. This swanky tapas bar runs a daily happy hour(s) from 1pm until 7pm where you get half price on selected cocktails. Pop in for a martini lunch or enjoy a few rounds of cocktails after work. Order a platter to share or get a portion of their buffulo wings (which are arguably the best in town).
The Artisan - Greenside
Another haunt hailing from the infamous Gleneagles road, The Artisan runs a daily happy hour(s) special from 5pm until 7pm. What you'll get is discounted drinks in a picturesque setting. Head to the roof for the perfect sun-downer session with friends. If you're a fan of Dungeons & Dragons, or fancy yourself a the master of 30 Seconds, The Artisan hosts a monthly games night you're sure to enjoy.
