This meat-driven destination steakhouse in Greenwood offers one of the most tantalizing happy hours in town from 4 to 5:30 p.m. daily. It’s the only time it offers the blue cheese butcher burger, a meal in itself and a steal at $11, and an even more enticing option when accompanied by an $8 Tom Collins or a $5 Coors stubby.

Le Coin’s owners branched out into Ballard with this Champagne bar that also has a streetside window where you can get tacos and sometimes other stuff. So there’s a lot going on here! But let’s focus on what’s important: $12 for a half dozen local oysters. From 3 to 5 p.m. Thursdays through Mondays, a huge chunk of the seafood-focused menu is half off, which means that the oysters — big chonky Treasure Cove lads — are just two bucks each. To wash that down, try 25 percent off Champagne by the glass or $1 beers.

The Varchetta Brothers long ruled happy hour in Seattle (Barolo, List, Cinque Terre), and that remains the same at their U District classic, where the steep discounts run all day on Sunday and Monday, from 3 to 6 p.m. daily, plus for an hour in the evening (8 to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and 9 to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday). The bar food menu is 50 percent off, bottles of the house red, white, and rosé are $28 while glasses are $7, and well drinks are $8 each. Plus, one can get a bottle of Veuve Clicquot for $65, or a glass for $7.

This Wallingford Japanese grilled meat specialist has one of the last remaining oyster happy hours selling the bivalves for less than $2 a pop. From 4:30 to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, oysters go for $1.75, marinated seafood cost $5, and the $6 drink menu includes draft beer, sake, and cocktails such as the Japanese 75 with yuzu.

This colorful and lively Thai spot in Fremont has a lengthy happy hour, from 3 to 6 p.m. and 9 to 10 p.m. daily. On the menu are discounts on delectable snacks like mussels pineapple curry with rice, larb chicken, boat noodles, and Kinlen wings. Well drinks and certain cocktails (such as lychee martinis) are $7.

Donna’s has plenty of cocktail specials during its 4 to 6 p.m. happy hour — including $7 espresso martini shots — but the real draw is the $10 pasta, which in case you missed the memo is really good pasta made by chef Peaches, formerly of the legendary Vito’s. If you’re more of a night person, there’s also a happy hour that runs from 10 p.m. to midnight Thursday through Saturday.

If you go to this Western bar for some day-drinking-turning-maybe-to-night-drinking and decide you’d actually like to just have dinner rather than schlep around Capitol Hill, you’re in luck: From 4 to 6 p.m. every day there’s a lineup of $9 food including chicken strips and fries, a cheeseburger and fries, and nachos. It’s basically a kid’s menu, sure, but after a few $9 PBR pitchers you’ll feel like a kid.

Famed restaurateur Tom Douglas recently turned Etta’s Big Mountain BBQ into an old-school steak-and-oysters joint and it’s coming out of the gate with incredible happy hour specials. From 3 to 6 p.m. oysters are $2 and maybe more importantly the burger is just $14. This is a grown-up burger too, not a “smash” burger, an impressive patty of juicy meat with the regular burger fixings plus some tartar sauce for a dose of tartness.

On the surface this is a sports-y wing place, but the sauce here has layers — it’s tangy but also has notes of cumin and even a bit of sweetness. We’d be happy to pay full price every time we’re in West Seattle, but on weekdays from 3 to 5 p.m. (and all day Mondays) a half-dozen wings are $9, and you can get a burger plus a wing order for $14. Is there anything that makes you prouder to be an American than the idea that wings can be a side?
