466611 Wed Dec 05 08:03:46 -0800 2007 17 14 Washington DC & Baltimore Area 0 3181327 What restaurants have free food happy hours 9or otherwise)? I know Ella's no longer has free pizza HHs. La tasca has free paella fridays at 6pm, m-f. bailey's in the ballston mall has a free food station weds at 6pm. I wrote about it on dcfud.com. I think bamboule (sp?) in friendship hts has a free appetizer or something on happy hours. Any others? Art openings have free food. any good resource for that? Thanks Wed Dec 05 08:03:46 -0800 2007 10978 Foodgeek 1 3181880 LOVE this topic. Nothing I can think of (other than Ella's, which as mentioned above no longer does free pizza), but keep 'em coming! Wed Dec 05 10:34:47 -0800 2007 3181327 87194 KWynn 1 3182669 Vidalia's Tuesday wine tastings are usually accompanied by appetizers at the bar. Wed Dec 05 14:12:17 -0800 2007 3181327 87249 katecm 2 3184222 Thanks. Apparently Bistro Lepic has free wine tastings tuesdays too. http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/?node=cityguide/profile&id=1139877&venueid=792001 Can you guys recommend some good free wine tastings. I like ones that are kind of happy hour ish (not just a few ppl) and have free munchies if possible. And, yeah...first fridays artwalk in dupont counts. :) Thu Dec 06 06:15:22 -0800 2007 3182669 10978 Foodgeek 1 3184342 Birches in Canton has a free taco bar Monday nights (might only be through football season though) and $2 drafts. Kooper's in Fells Point has a free buffet on Fridays 4-7. Mick O'Shea's in Mount Vernon also has a free buffet Fridays 4-7. Thu Dec 06 07:06:04 -0800 2007 3181327 120852 Chowtimore 2 3186232 Taco Fiesta in Harbor East has a free buffet on Fridays. Thu Dec 06 16:10:12 -0800 2007 3184342 11719 jes 1 3187350 I believe that Town and Country at the Mayflower Hotel has free food from 5-7. I don't think there are drink specials during happy hour and drinks are fairly expensive, but last time I was there (granted it was over a year ago), they had a decent spread, including ravioli. Fri Dec 07 06:20:47 -0800 2007 3181327 48044 WashDC33 1 4136077 BTW, check out gregslistdc.com, a happy hour event list. I found the anniversarry party of vegetate there and got some free apps. :) Wed Oct 29 07:21:41 -0700 2008 3181327 10978 Foodgeek 1 4136149 equinox's fall fridays happy hour has lots of great complimentary snacks and some good drinks, it starts at 5 i believe. Wed Oct 29 07:54:20 -0700 2008 3181327 181498 littlew1ng 1 4141502 Ceiba has one free appetizer a night for HH, I believe. Town and Country in the Mayflower sets up a buffet of 2-3 appetizers between 5-7pm. Usually pretty basic, but sustenance nonetheless. I didn't realize that Ella stopped serving free pizza. That's too bad. Great topic! Fri Oct 31 14:23:28 -0700 2008 3181327 230859 jcwexler 2 4161330 mayflower is pretty good -- but so crowded. the hoggy people piling up their free food is off-putting. as well as the middle-aged working girls at the bar. Mon Nov 10 06:52:42 -0800 2008 4141502 105717 alkapal 3 4170327 That was a really nasty comment. Are you referring to hookers or the bartenders? Either way it doesn't affect you does it...unless you are in the market... Thu Nov 13 08:55:04 -0800 2008 4161330 129959 DCDOLL 4 4172739 i'm referring to the girls at the bar, who are obviously working -- not all females at the bar. i don't think there are any female bartenders, iirc. and dcdoll, you have your own little "nasty" comment, don't you? my comment was factually based. and that i find the scene offputting? that is my opinion. Fri Nov 14 04:57:07 -0800 2008 4170327 105717 alkapal 1 4141548 I thought I recall either Morton's or Daily Grill doing free filet mignon sandwiches during HH Fri Oct 31 14:46:22 -0700 2008 3181327 79562 MarcDC 1 4166982 Bare Bones in Ellicott City does a HH buffet as long as you're drinking something (alcoholic or not). Wed Nov 12 06:54:39 -0800 2008 3181327 64255 LGood 1 4167379 I haven't been there in years, but when I used to go to the Rams Head in Savage Mill for happy hour, they always had free food (and half price draught beer). Maybe they still do. Wed Nov 12 09:02:47 -0800 2008 3181327 89996 4X4 2 4167448 Good call on Ram's Head. Monday through Friday they have a different Happy Hour food special each day. I know Friday is usually wing night, but not sure about the rest of the week. Wed Nov 12 09:24:35 -0800 2008 4167379 64255 LGood 1 4180712 I just found this gem last week...Maggiano's in friendship heights offers an array of brushetta (sp), cold cut sammys, salad, pasta, olives, etc...My boyfriend and I went home stuffed and satisfied :) Mon Nov 17 12:49:44 -0800 2008 3181327 240912 MilaSoler
