What? After twenty years of offering the most dependable happy hour in the city, with a terrific cheeseburger among the other $1.95 specials, McCormick’s has changed its hours? Just walked into the bar at the corner of the Oxford Hotel and found out that corporate had dictated a cutback several months ago — from the standard 3 to 6 p.m. slot to a shorter, 4 to 6 p.m. happy hour, with a similar shrinkage in the late-night happy hours.
Fortunately,we hear that the company has seen the error of its ways, and in a month or so, the happy-hour hours will return to the long-appreciated 3 to 6 p.m., with an encore from 9 to 11 p.m.
