Cheap beer in Garment District

The Garment District drinks around Penn Station and the Port Authority, and the bar list is exactly what that implies: Irish pubs and taphouses built for a crowd with a train to catch, plus a few hotel rooftops on the northern edge. Prices sit in the middle of the Midtown range with a tight cluster of pubs at the bottom. Happy hour here starts early and runs long — several windows open at or before noon and hold until seven — which is the commuter-bar signature, and a couple of the bars run it all seven days.

16 priced bars tracked · lowest listed price $6.00 · middle listed price $8.00 · 5 with published happy-hour details. These prices are a starting point, not identical-pour comparisons: a listing may be a can, bottle, or draft. Check the note and source before traveling, especially for a time-limited special.

ART Midtown - Rooftop Bars Midtown, NYC (Arlo Midtown)

$8.00

Rooftop, 26th Floor, 351 W 38th St, New York, NY 10018, USA

The current official Spring 2026 menu PDF (ART-Midtown-Spring-2026-3.16. lists a standard beer list under 'Beer': Modelo Especial 'Modeltios' (4.4%, Mexico City) at $8, Samuel Adams American Light at $10, Coney Island Mermaid Pilsner at $10, Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA at $10, Rotating Seasonal at $12, and non-alcoholic Brooklyn Special Effects Hoppy Lager (0.5%) at $10. The menu also offers 'a selection of six cold ones at $48', which is $8/beer -- the same as the single-beer price for the Modelo, so it does not change the cheapest-beer figure. The cheapest regularly-available beer is therefore the $8 Modelo Especial. Separately, the same PDF has a distinct 'Happy Hour' menu section headed 'EVERY DAY | OPEN - 6 PM' listing a 'Beer & Wine' price of $6 for Modelo Especial 'Modelitos', which is the recorded happy-hour price below. Note: the venue's food-beverage webpage separately states happy hour as 'Daily: 4pm - 7pm' without a price -- this conflicts by one hour with the PDF's 'open-6pm' framing. Since the PDF is the only source that ties a specific beer price to the happy-hour window and carries an explicit 2026 revision date, it was treated as the more current/authoritative source for the end time, and the discrepancy is flagged here rather than silently resolved.
