And it's really making up for lost time. The happy hour, which starts today, will run from 3 to 6 p.m. seven days a week, and feature cocktail specials ($3 Ketel One John Daly or a pitcher for $15; $3 Happy Hour Pint-o-'Rita; $3 Corona or bucket of 6 Coronas for $15) and food specials ($1 Beef or Bean Taco, $3 Mini Philly Cheesesteak [two in an order], $3 Artichoke Dip, $3 Chicken Wings, $3 Mini
