Midtown Happy Hour Anyone?

EMMETT O'LUNNEY'SAt the end of this weeks Lunch’er profile I cast a net for a Midtown lush lunch’er who would be interested in starting a Friday afternoon “Midtown Happy Hour” column. We need cheap after work drinks too, right?  Well it looks like I found somebody, and the first column will go up next week (around this time.)  In the meantime, our friend Kayoko over at Umamimart posted about a great secret Russian happy hour spot in Midtown West.  Enjoy!

    Here’s what the link should be for those of you interested: http://umamimart.blogspot.com/2008/09/best-kept-secret-happy-hour-place-in.html

    I don’t think it’s so secret though, as my ex took me there years ago for our first date. We definitely got some stares.

    Is there ever going to be a Midtown Lunch Happy Hour gathering? I pass through Midtown (sorta) on my way home and would love to freak all of these MLers out :)

    Yo, the Russian Vodka Room is definitely well known in some rowdier circles. Ahem. It is totally awesome in a tacky, Twilight Zone, Russian mafia kind of way. Totally up for a meet up, too.

    please! we’ve been going to the russian vodka room for years and the place is ALWAYS packed at happy hour – to the point where you can’t even breathe. it’s much better to go there late night, when they have the piano player.

    wouldn’t typically do this just b/c were bonded by the shackles of where we spend our days…but Zach you rule…and the folks you interview are mostly cool – sign me up…

    My cheap personal fave is without a doubt, Pronto Pizza on 41st btwn 6th and 7th. Happy Hour specials offer Blue Moon drafts for $3.50 (they also have other beers) and $5 mixed drinks plus if you get hungry, a slice is $2.50
