Los Angeles’ Best Happy Hours for Singles

 

Los Angeles is full of hot young singles, and happy hour is the perfect time to find them in their natural habitat. Many of the unattached youth are broke, most of them love to get their drink on, and all of them are down for some inexpensive dinner grub. candyhearts

 

Happy hour atmosphere is more relaxed and inviting than a snooty restaurant or loud nightclub, cheap food makes you happy, and lots of drinks make you horny. At happy hour, the night is young and full of potential- you might meet someone intriguing and sneak off into the evening together, a whirlwind love affair sparked by half-price margaritas and $3 appetizers.

 

It could happen.

 

Looking (or lusting) for love? Hit up these Los Angeles happy hours known to be gathering grounds for hot singles.

 

For downtown LA action, the Latin-inspired cuisine of Cuidad brings in an equally spicy city clientele of movers and shakers. Every Monday through Fridahearty from 4 PM to 7PM you can enjoy $3 tacos and half-price margaritas, mojitos, sangria and wine. Savor a drink (or three) at the bar or on the patio after work with a crowd of young professionals and unwind from the day- or wind up for the night!

 

 

If you prefer your singles beachy and with a bay view, Woody’s Wharf in Newport Beach attracts a college-y crowd with its outdoor dining area and easy breezes. Expect OC hotties and surfer brahs along with the $3 domestic pints, $16 pitchers and $5 martinis, margaritas and mojitos. Snacks like grilled artichoke, bang bang shrimp and friend calamari cost $4-5, and happy hour runs Monday through Friday from 5PM to 7PM.

 

Silver Lake is an artsy, hipster neighborhood, and at Malo the area’s young denizens are on display at happy hour each weeknight from 5PM to 7PM, when El Jimador Blanco margaritas and red or white sangria cost $6. The restaurant really gets popping on Monday night, also known as Dollar Taco Night, when you can start your week off right with an assortment of veggie and meat tacos that cost $1 to $5 from 5PM to 10PM. Dine on the patio for the maximum action.

 

For singles served with sidewalk café culture, the French bistro Figaro Café offers a small slice of Paris right on North Vermont Avenue. Sit outside at one of the small round tables and indulge in some epic people watching while you sip on half-price Kirs, Kronenburg and wine by the glass. Happy hour is served every day from 5PM to 7PM, and for hungry singles, Figaro serves a small assortment of bistro items such as mussels, escargot and garlic fries for $3 to $5. Bon appétit.
