Sip every day this week

FOOD & DRINK. Center City Sips (www.centercityphila.org) is in its third week of Wednesday night happy hours of $2 beers, $3 wines, $4 cocktails and half-priced appetizers. And judging by the overflowing crowds, it’s a huge success. But how about the rest of the week?

David Katz’s Mémé (2201 Spruce St.) recently added a happy hour. From 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., three wines are $5 a glass and a selection of snacks are $5 per plate.

Down the street a bit, the Sidecar (2201 Christian St.) offers something for everyone living the frugal life: half off select apps, a dollar off all craft beer, and $2.50 Miller High Lifes.

Plenty of Center City workers crow about the happy-hour menu at McCormick & Schmick’s (1 S. Broad St.) and their long menu of bites for under $5 between 5 and 7 p.m. Or you can class it up nearby at Le Bec-Fin’s Bar Lyonnais (1523 Walnut St.), where you’ll find $5 wines, cocktails and bites, as well as a little sophistication.

Ansill Food + Wine (627 S. Third St.) is sure to please anyone who works a little later with its accessible 6-8 p.m. happy hour. The bar offers $1 oysters, $3 Yards beer and $5 glasses of Prosecco. And hear this, Center City Sips — it even happens on Saturday.
