Stopped by for a happy hour and was impressed with their deals! *Drink Happy Hour Menu Attached to this review*. There is a fun ambiance, and it was larger than expected. We were able to seat ourselves in a back room with open windows to the street. Our server, whose name I didn't catch, was extremely friendly and attentive. They had a great espresso martini. For happy hour, we got 2 drinks each, which were only $7 each for happy hour! Great food as well. Would recommend if you are in the area! read more

My friends and I finished having dinner and we stopped by this bar for drinks on a Friday night. The place was crowded and they were playing pretty good music, no one was really dancing but us. I ordered drinks at the bar and I didn't finish ordering and the bartender got upset. I understand that the bar is busy and he wants the order all at once, but I wasn't able to reach him when he was pouring the drinks. He was very rude, most likely will never go back. read more

Stopped by on a Tuesday for HH with the girls and we were so glad we ended up at Pretty Rickys! This bar has all the right things - good food, music and vibes. You can actually have a conversation with friends, enjoy great music, and dig into food that isn't terrible. Def recommend the fries and burgers. The service does get a little slow as there was only one or two servers but other than that would definitely recommend! read more

Cuisine: 7 Service: 7 Decor: 7 Value: 8 Overall: 7 This review is purely based on the Happy Hour, which is as follows below. Monday: All Day Tuesday to Friday: 4pm - 7pm Saturday & Sunday: 2pm - 5pm We came here specifically for the Happy Hour oysters, which are $7 for half a dozen. On the day we were there, they had oysters from Massachusetts, and they were quite good. Very fresh and cleanly shucked. Two of us had a dozen each. As for other Happy Hour items, the two Ricky's Sliders for $7 were just okay, while the two Fried Chicken Sliders were actually not bad. With that said, not sure I would get them when I could just order more of those awesome oysters. Lol Penicillin and Espresso Martini, each for $7 during Happy Hour, were both quite well made. I could see myself coming back again for some Happy Hour oysters and a few drinks. read more

Recently visited for happy hr. as me and my friends were bar crawling. They have select bites for discounted price. I was happy to see they had oysters but, they didn't have them available on this visit. Booooo. I didn't see anything else on the happy hr menu that piqued my interest. Although that was the end of my interest on bites, I took advantage of the happy hr cocktail menu. I went with the emotional orange. It reminded me of a jazzed up aperol spritz. It was tasty and boozy. The bartenders were pretty friendly and had many accouterments to craft beverages. The atmosphere was ok but, the music could've used a little help. I may give them another chance but, maybe I'd eye the regular menu on that visit. read more

came here for happy hour with friends and ended up staying way longer than planned because we were having such a good time truthfully. we shared the sliders, focaccia & hummus, and fries. we ended up trying a variety of cocktails & all the girls were sipppping! the bar has dim lighting BUT has holiday lights up everywhere & we appreciated that so much. it automatically enhances your mood. i will say, i usually don't like espresso martinis but this one surprised me. i loved it and even ordered a second. after 7pm, they begin $10 martinis. our server was also incredibly patient the whole time so shout out to her. read more

I really enjoyed randomly finding this spot. Their gold rush is delicious. Quick service. Cool bartenders. The music is great too. The music was the best as they play music ranging from r&b, rap, dembow, to throwbacks. read more

Give ELSA a raise. She's goated. Such a beautiful spirit and she makes amazing drinks. We come pretty often for the happy hour and specifically the oysters. You can't beat $7 oysters lol. I'd highly recommend for an after work spot. read more

Cool happy hour place for everyone's new favorite drink, The espresso martini! However please be aware they are pre-made with an inexpensive vodka that might leave you with a hangover the next day. Good happy hour food options as well but my chicken sliders were def made with old chicken. The chicken was brown and hard. Fries were good and very cool aesthetically pleasing bar. I would try it again, in hopes to have better food. Bartender service was very good though. read more

Popped in here while it was raining to stay dry and we grabbed a seat at the bar and got drinks. They have an awesome happy hour that starts early (at least on Saturday's). I got a glass of wine and our bartender was really nice! Vibes were great and it was a good crowd for a Saturday afternoon! I would totally go back. read more

$7 for a happy hour espresso martini is iconic. Quality espresso martinis too, not one of these watered down, low effort, danced on canned espresso martinis... Sorry a lot of descriptors there but they came from my soul. A reasonable happy hour from 4-7pm too. $7 at 6:59pm, $17 at 7:01pm. It really grinds my gears when places advertise a happy hour but it's from 4-6 M-F only... like I can't even physically make that. I guess I gotta go harder for financial freedom... I sat here at the Pretty Ricky's bar with my big homie, surrounded by Halloween decorations, ripping a couple $7 espresso martinis while just sitting there talking about life. Pretty Ricky's is doing inflation how Ilia Topuria did Max Holloway last night. Damn that hurt to even type. Tough to watch your heroes get sent to the shadow realm, but a $7 espresso martini helps take the pain away. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews read more

$7 drinks and a weekend happy hour, what more could you ask for? Was attracted to the retro signage and came in to wait for my pants to be hemmed at Orchard Express. The bar has a lot of space, with a big back room. There are many places where you can stand and put down your drink, so you can tell it gets busy in here. I saw about 20 or so taps, so I figure it's a beer bar but had a cocktail instead along with the sliders (get the chicken ones.) read more

Came here with my finance for a quick drink and bite before a concert at Mercury Lounge last weekend. We ordered the Disco Shrimp: Resurrection and What Happened to the 9 Train to drink and shared fries, a kale salad and crispy chicken sandwich. I was super perplexed by the Disco Shrimp: Resurrection drink. The server described it as tasting like a chocolate covered strawberry margarita and she was spot on! This drink was so unique and very good. My finance also enjoyed his drink. The fries and sandwich were also good. I surprisingly enjoyed the kale salad more than I expected to. I mean it's a kale salad; what's so special? I find kale just ok and I would come back here just for this salad and disco shrimp cocktail alone. The service was great. We had two servers and they were both attentive and awesome. The windows and doors were open so it was a little hot but we're also in the middle of a heat wave so it is what it is. I'm not sure we'll be in the area again anytime soon but if we are I'll definitely stop by again. They have a few more unique cocktails that caught my eye. read more

Date: Friday, January 12th, 2024 Time: around 5pm Party of: 3 What: Happy Hour (Tues to Fri 4pm to 7pm, Sat & Sun 2pm to 5pm) *1/2 Dozen Oysters: Mignonette, Cocktail Sauce ($6) *French Fries ($6) *Espresso Martini: community vodka, mr black coffee liqueur, cold brew ($6) x2 *Bunny Bravo | Espresso & Tonic: ilegal mezcal, amontillado sherry, spiced pear, cold brew fever tree tonic ($6) *Sauvignon Blanc: Gotham Projects, FR ($6) x2 *Jameson ($16) When we first arrived, it wasn't super busy, so we managed to easily grab three seats at the bar. (All the booths were taken.) Towards the end of our time here, it got busier, so we came at a good time. Everything above is from their HH menu except for the Jameson. In a world where inflation is driving up everything, $6 per HH item is awesome! I got the espresso martini and sauvignon blanc. The espresso martini was good. Not too sweet. The sauvignon blanc paired well with the oysters. Tho I'm a fan of smaller oysters, so these were on the bigger side for me. The fries were fine. Some fried food is always a good snack when drinking. If ordering straight whisky / scotch, I would recommend going for the higher shelf stuff as it is reasonably priced. I can't remember what we asked about (maybe the oban 14?), but the price was the same as a pour of jameson. (We figured the jameson would be cheaper, but it was the same price.) Great HH spot. The bartender was nice and attentive without being overly so. Definitely worth checking out. read more

Miguel was the best bartender I've ever seen in my existence of living. He was so kind he was so nice and he made my drink so good. I don't know who the manager is of that establishment but he needs to give Miguel a raise. Also on top of that, the social media manager girl Keeley took photos of us and she ate that up real bad and she ate that me and my friends will definitely back to get more drinks and inside it looks a little bit frat ish because of the people who come in, but other than that, it's a great vibe 10 out of 10 I'm coming back read more

Pretty Ricky's is my favorite bar in the Lower East Side, for many reasons. This spot is one you can go to at any time of day and have a great time. Their happy hour is $7 cocktails, wine, and beer from 2-5pm everyday. Amazing for day drinking on a warm NYC weekend day, as they also open up all their windows and you can sit outside. When I come here at night, they have great music and open up the backroom. The quality of their drinks are also very good. The bartenders are fast and attentive. Their speed does not sacrifice the quality of the drinks either. Definitely recommend this spot for drinking night or day. Next time I need to try some food! read more

I popped in here on a Sunday with some friends. The server recognized my friend because he's a a regular, so we were greeted warmly! I got a cider ($9) which I enjoyed. The bathroom is downstairs in the back and there are 4 single stalls. There also another bar area in the back. read more

Great spot for happy hour especially when the weather is nice. They open all the windows by the street so you have this nice breeze and good lighting all throughout the restaurant. Oysters for happy hour was $1.25 each which isn't bad at all. The oysters tasted fresh! (I wish I could bring some Thai seafood sauce and fried shallots to eat the oysters with lol my fav way to eat oysters. Cocktails were delicious but I observed that my espresso martini didn't have 3 beans on top for symbolism. Nbd was just an observation. The drink was still yummy and got me feeling pretty nice. My friends ordered sliders which they said was good. Service was also really great! 9/10 I do recommend! read more

This place is a gem! 7$ menu items during happy hour. Ordered one of everything for the table. Everyone had a different favorite, but all were amazing. The "penicillin" was the best I've ever had. We live in a very bougie area of the Midwest and it is difficult to get a good cocktail for under 16 bucks. I couldn't believe how well we ate and drank at Pretty Ricky's with the nicest wait staff and bumpin' tunes. We all wish we had a Pretty Ricky's back home! read more

The service here is awesome and the bartenders are so nice and fun. The cocktails are great and they have a large selection. A great spot to get a large group together. read more

Was here on one of the first nice days in the city and really enjoyed them having the giant window in front open. Service was good, drinks were delicious, and it didn't get too crowded but still had good vibes. I'm happy to have stumbled upon this place and looking forward to returning in the future read more

This place has a private room and you can rent it out for parties even on Saturday nights but it's only available from 8 pm-12 midnight and they won't let you set up before 7:30 pm. Other than that, it's really cool and the bartenders are AWESOME! You can order some fries and onion rings to soak up the alcohol. Lol. The minimum is 4k so invite all of your friends and party like it's 1999!! Bring your playlist and you can hook your phone up and play disco music all night long!! read more

Yummy drinks (+ reasonable prices at happy hour) but service left something to be desired. My friend and I had to make many attempts to flag down a server for another drink/the bill on multiple occasions. We ordered a final round after happy hour ended and confirmed with our server that we understood the drinks would be full price. We then waited 20 minutes and were told that our drinks didn't come because happy hour was over read more

I ran inside to use the bathroom on a Saturday night after dinner around 11 pm and ended up staying for drinks. There were other small groups inside but it wasn't packed. We (4 of us) were able to grab a table in the corner. For music, it was mostly top 40s. We ordered shots of patron and I had the cosmopolitan. It was made really well. It was strong, but enjoyable. The guys in my group ordered a couple different IPAs, which they seemed to enjoy and order more rounds of. Besides the service being a little slow, I would definitely return for a super chill vibe and good, reasonable priced drinks. read more

My favorite spot for happy hour. I live nearby and can always grab a seat outside in the summer or inside. Usually have to reserve the booths for a bigger group. The cocktail menu changes every season and I'm always excited to try the new gin cocktails. The burger deal for happy hour is unmatched. The oysters are also always so fresh. Pro Tip: you can rent out the back room for events and they really do an amazing job with serving crudités or French fries. read more

Don't tell all your friends - just the ones you really like. A happy hour deal this good should be kept low-key. Pretty Ricky's feels cute, trendy, and cool, but most importantly, offers $6 cocktails during happy hour! And a selection of bites as well. If you need a good happy hour spot on the Lower East Side, look no further. read more

Been here for drinks on a Friday night and it was packed! Luckily we were able to snag a table in the back next to the bar. Drinks are decent the establishment itself is very large and there was a whole addition section once you started to explore with multiple bathrooms down below. I would definitely try to come back for happy hour or brunch! read more

Awesome happy hour deals: $7 espresso martinis and $1 oysters. Can't go wrong with that.

I've only been here for cocktails, so I can't speak to the food but I've always been happy with the overall vibe and quality of the drinks here. A few times service has been a bit slow but nothing crazy. I love their interior and seating options. Nothing more enjoyable than sitting near the window on a beautiful day. 4.4/5 read more

We came here just for some drinks as we waited for a friend and I'm so glad that we found it! The vibe is good, the crowd is mixed and the drinks are flowing. We got the french fries, which may be the best fries that I've ever had! They're double fried, so the crunch and flavor is absolutely amazing! read more

This is my go to neighborhood bar! The ambience is nice but not fussy, the music is fun, and the food and drinks are great.
