New Happy Hours at Grand Central Oyster Bar, Gran Electrica

Yep, it's the holidays, can we all stop pretending that we're not going to drink too much. If you need any more convincing, stop by Gran Electrica and Colonie, which just launched new happy hours from 5:30 to 7 PM every day. Both deals include $5 glasses of vino and $6 cocktails. The food at both places (to put it bluntly) rocks, so we recommend getting boozed up and then asking for a table around 7:15.

The Grand Central Oyster Bar is also unveiling a sweet new drink deal. On Monday through Wednesday, the storied haunt will serve $4 beers, $6 wines and $8 martinis from 4:30 to 7 PM and on Saturday from 1 to 5 PM in the saloon and lounge.
