The hottest happy hours around Australia make catch-ups with friends more cost-effective.

Read up on the history of happy hour and you will find the phrase may have come from American Naval slang from the 1920s. The Merriam-Webster dictionary also reports the term derives from the Middle English word ‘hap’ which means ‘good luck’.

Regardless of when happy hour entered the lexicon, this period of discounted drinks is a tradition Aussies would like to see continue. Especially given the current #cossylivs (cost-of-living) crisis. Organise your entourage: here is our guide to Australia’s best happy hours which will help make your night out more affordable.

NSW

Armorica Grand Brasserie

Sydney’s most sophisticated happy hour is here. It’s dubbed Six Til 6 and it’s an ode to pleasure at Armorica Grand Brasserie, one of the best French restaurants in Sydney. The 150-seat restaurant by Andrew Becher is the sister venue to Franca and Parlar in Potts Point, two of Sydney’s finest destination diners led by superstar executive chef Jose Saulog.

Armorica Grand Brasserie is like stepping into a portal that leads to Paris.

While the restaurant named after an ancient Celtic region in France is best known for its spectacular seafood tower and dishes kissed with fire over the custom-built Josper grill, it also appeals to the spontaneous who want to sit at the bar and enjoy the steal of the season. The happy hour here is from 4pm to 6pm daily and features $6 glasses of rosé by the glass and charcuterie items starting at $6. It’s the perfect spot for a #girldinner or TGIF with your workies. With its leather banquettes and booths and acres of marble it feels like a portal to a grand brasserie in Paris. Chin-chin.

Curate your own charcuterie platter with items starting at $6.

Address: Shop 1 & 2/490 Crown St, Surry Hills

Queen Margherita of Savoy

The term #cossylivs was named Word of the Year by Macquarie Dictionary in 2023 thanks to the cost-of-living crisis being front of mind for most Australians.

Make it to the family-run pizza joint Queen Margherita of Savoy in Cronulla between 5pm and 6pm Tuesday to Sunday and the happy hour will send some sunlight your way thanks to the $15 Limoncello spritzers and $22 Margherita pizzas.

Easy Tiger

It’s worth flagging that dinner with the family at Easy Tiger in Bondi Beach should be punctuated by a swim in one of the most popular sea pools in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. Easy Hour extends from 5pm to 6pm from Wednesday to Sunday when diners wanting an early dinner are offered 25 per cent off the bill.

Jane

There’s a real sense of community at Jane during Australiano hour where locals gather for $8 spritzes, $10 martinis and VB stubbies for $6 and $8 glasses of wine.

Hoist yourself onto one of the stools at the Surry Hills bar to knock back a few oysters drizzled in a desert lime mignonette ($2 each) or duck croquette with mustard and tarragon ($6). Chef Beth Patterson makes judicious use of native ingredients in dishes such as the signature ‘roo tartare with bush chutney for $15. Get amongst it.

$8 spritzes and $10 martinis won’t go astray at Jane’s.

Jackalberry

Jackalberry is a bit of a chi-chi oasis within the Hyatt Regency Sydney. The bar housed within an elegant sandstone heritage building takes its cues from botanicals around the world. And there’s a lot to unpack, with various artefacts and curios dotted about the space.

Happy hour extends from 4pm to 5.30pm Monday to Friday with $9 house wines, beer and mini cocktails the order of the day. Keep the good times rolling at the hotel’s Sailmaker Restaurant where the Seafarer Dinner (Thursday to Sunday) is a value-add at $89 per person.

Bar Patrón

Expect brilliant bar food and killer cocktails during Patrón Hour at Bar Patrón by Rockpool. Sure, you’re likely to share the venue with Trust Fund Babies indulging in the millionaire’s cocktail for one at a pricey $100 a glass. But those without a rich benefactor will still feel exceptionally privileged with a $12 signature or spicy margarita in hand.

Order yourself a $12 marg during Patrón Hour.

As well as being loud and lively, there’s a lot to love about the LGBTQIA+-friendly Mexican restaurant down by Circular Quay.

Settle in for a round of drinks at Amphlett House.

Saké Hamer Hall
