Coronado’s happiest hours
Go back a generation or two and everyone thought of “Happy Hour” time as half-price drink times. And while those “after-work” bargains are still popular, we’re expanding our search for “happy hours” to times when great bargains on food and drink abound and when there’s something a little extra in the mix. Sometimes “happy hours” can occur at a time of day when bagels go on sale or when yogurt is half price after school. Sometimes it’s a little music thrown in for good measure… maybe a guitarist, maybe a piano bar. Great-deal dinners, drinks, and street tacos have a way of making everyone feel… well, a little happy. So…whatever your age, whatever time of day, and whatever you’re hankering for…here’s a guide to happy times in Coronado!
