WELCOME TO THE CRAPPY HOURS!
/First a little history on “Happy Hour”
Happy hours were actually periods of time on naval ships where sailors could engage in relaxing activities in order to relieve themselves from the drudgery of life at sea. Typically, these activities were morale boosting, such as boxing and other athletics.
Meanwhile, the United States was going through the Prohibition period, a largely failed experiment that prohibited the sale and consumption of alcohol. Of course, Americans got around it and began frequenting speakeasies to get their fix of beer or liquor before eating dinner. “Happy hour” became a phrase that described these illegal gatherings.
Today, frequenting the bar for happy hours is anything but illegal and is widely enjoyed by men and women across the country. From nice dining restaurants, to craft beer pubs, happy hours offer a range of cocktails and select craft beers to help ease patrons into the workweek.

With the pandemic and restrictions imposed over the past two years we have seen a sharp reduction in people at Happy Hour and or Happy Hour disappearing all together when we were shut down. One of the staff members could be overheard calling it Crappy Hour and it stuck.
The kitchen decided to bang out a few items you cannot get during regular hours, the bar staff raised beer prices by a dollar and cut all cocktails by 50%. They even designed an economic stimulus plan and there you have the birth of our Crappy Hour!
