Tax day is Wednesday, April 15th this year and for all of the procrastinators and people who owe money out there, deadline day is a reminder to either drink or not spend a lot of money. So why not combine the two and take advantage of happy hours throughout Los Angeles and drink specials reserved only for this “taxing day”? We might not love tax day but we do LOVE getting good drink deals and we LOVE happy hour so you better believe we are going to take advantage of these low price cocktails in L.A. Seriously though, get some $1 cocktails on tax day and we’ll show you where!
Before we get to the $1 cocktails, we have to tell you that we just caught wind that The Whisper Lounge at the Grove will go for 15 cents on tax day! That's right, purchase Classic Martinis, 15 cents a pop. Limit of two per guest, available only with a purchase of an entrée on April 15.
