Philly's Best Happy Hours: Almyra's $7 Cocktails, $8 Tuna Crispy Rice, & $8 Flaming Cheese, 7 Days a Week

Happy Hour is 7 Days a Week and Might Be the Best Deal in Philly
by Michelle Cryder on Mar 18, 2025 in Culture

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.


El Dorado - tequila, lemon, honey $7

This week's installment is all about Almyra, a vibrant addition to the Estia Restaurant Group. The modern Greek restaurant and bar in Rittenhouse Square features an open-concept dining room with a coastal vibe that transports guests straight to Mykonos.


Bennett - vodka, lime, orange $7

In addition to serving up Grecian beverages and bites, the window-lined restaurant boasts a state-of-the-art sound system to bump beach club-inspired playlists and weekend DJ sets.
 


Daiquiri - rum, pineapple, lime? $7

“It’s unlike anything you’ve ever heard of in a restaurant,” said Gus Pashalis, Regional Manager at Estia Restaurant Group, “I want our guests to feel like they’re on vacation.”


Cheese Saganaki - seared kefalograviera cheese served on a hot skillet and flambéed table side with a ouzo-honey emulsion $8
 


Spritz - citrus cordial, gin, bubbles $7

Much like a vacation, the party doesn’t stop after the weekend. Almyra’s happy hour is 7 days a week from 4 PM to 6 PM at the bar and surrounding hightops.
 

Choose from $5 beers and $6 glasses of wine, or enjoy Almyra’s cocktail of the day for just $7.
 


Crispy Rice - crispy rice crackers with fresh tuna and avocado, olive tapenade on top $8

Indulge in their tuna crispy rice for $8, or keep it traditional with their spanakopita manti with spinach, feta, leeks, and tzatziki for $7


Spanakopita Manti - fresh spinach, leeks, and a feta cheese interior with mint and herbs served wit tzatziki $7


Edamame Hummus, Beet, Santorini Fava, Whipped Feta, Smoked Eggplant served with pita and crispy rice cracker $15

You can also snack on a sampler of their delectable spreads of whipped feta, edamame hummus, smoked eggplant, and santorini fava beans served with pita and crispy rice crackers for $15.
 


Cretan Village Salad - tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, feta cheese in a red wine vinaigrette $7
 

If you want to step outside the city streets for a bit and experience a taste of the Aegean coast, step into Almyra the next time you’re in Rittenhouse and grab a seat at the marbled-topped bar. Yamas!
