Cheap beer in Hell's Kitchen

Hell's Kitchen runs on two clocks. Ninth Avenue's old bar-and-grills — Rudy's chief among them — hold a genuine bottom-of-the-market floor that has mostly vanished from the rest of Midtown, while the blocks nearer the theaters price for people with an 8pm curtain. That split shows up in this list as a wide gap between the cheapest and dearest listings on the same avenue. The happy hours are the longest in Manhattan outside the LES: several run from late morning until seven, and a distinctive cluster opens a second window around 11pm for the after-shift crowd, which is not a pattern you find uptown.

51 priced bars tracked · lowest listed price $4.00 · middle listed price $7.00 · 19 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.
