Philly's Best Happy Hours: The Twisted Tail & 20% off all Bourbons on Wednesdays

Welcome to Philly’s Best Happy Hours, a feature highlighting great happy hours in different neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia. Since Drink Philly started out as a place to find happy hours in the city, we thought it was only right to return to our roots and turn the spotlight on some of Philly’s absolute best happy hour deals.

In this installment, we're focusing on The Twisted Tail, a Headhouse Square mainstay with an excellent drink list and Southern-inspired cuisine. Featuring live music, a dartboard, shuffleboard, and a superb selection of whiskeys alongside some of the city's best barbecue, The Twisted Tail also offers an incredible happy hour that features different specials every single day of the week.

From 5 PM - 7 PM every day of the week, The Twisted Tail hosts what they call "Social Hour" and along with an extensive menu of happy hour bites ranging from $4-$6, from crawfish mac & cheese to crispy soft-shell shrimp and pork belly sliders, the bar offers a different drink deal every day, including:

#ManhattanMonday ($7 house Manhattans)
#TuesdayBoozeday
(1/2 price pitchers of Southern wine coolers)
#WhiskeyWednesday (20% off all bourbons)
#TBT ($5 classic cocktail of the day)
#TGIF ($15 burger, beer & bourbon)
#SocialSaturday ($10 off punch bowls)
#SundayFunday (1/2 price bottles of sparkling wine)

Aside from these, every day, you can get $3 select draft beers and $4 house wines during Social Hour as well.

On Wednesdays, as well as receiving 20% off all of their 50 plus bourbons, you can join The Twisted Tail's Bourbon Club, where your goal is to try every single whiskey on their shelf. Once you've achieved this task, you get 20% off all bourbons any day you like, a personalized glass, and a plaque commemorating your success. You can attend Bourbon Club any day of the week, but on Wednesdays, you can check some items off your list for a little less.

Stop by this Society Hill spot any day for a great deal, whether you prefer Manhattans or bubbly, and while you're there, snack on Southern bites and try to catch some live blues — all for a great price.
