Craft & Commerce happy hour tips
Know the short window: happy hour runs Tuesday–Thursday from 4:00pm–5:00pm and Friday from 3:00pm to 5:00pm, so timing is everything.
Sliders + wings are the MVP combo: locals love the $4 sliders and $1.50 wings, calling them the best bang-for-buck bites on the menu.
Don't miss the bone marrow: at $6 during happy hour, it’s one of the most-ordered small plates and gets constant praise from regulars.
Cocktails are $8 and creative: favorites include the Caballo Blanco, Ex-Pat, and espresso martini—loved for their balance and presentation.
The vibe is immersive and lively: expect taxidermy, dramatic décor, and a buzzy crowd that is fun for groups but not the spot for quiet conversation.
Sneak into False Idol after: the hidden tiki bar inside Craft & Commerce is a must-do, and many happy-hour guests head straight there for round two.

Craft & Commerce Happy Hourista review

CONTRIBUTOR
Happy hour at Craft & Commerce is a study in theater and craftsmanship. The interior evokes a modern explorer’s club, with dark wood, taxidermy, and a curated chaos of books and curiosities, creating an atmosphere that is equal parts moody and magnetic. Guests come as much for the experience as the menu: a brief but impactful window of indulgence that captures the restaurant’s eclectic spirit. The offerings balance comfort with sophistication. Shishito peppers arrive blistered and unpredictable, while bone marrow, rich and silky with toasted sourdough, has become a calling card of the house. Sliders deliver familiar ease, and wings priced at just $1.50 each provide an unpretentious counterpoint to the more elaborate plates. Cocktails are no afterthought. Classics like the Caballo Blanco and Ex-Pat showcase a deft hand with mezcal and tequila, offering complexity without pretension. At $8 during happy hour, these are polished drinks at rare value. What sets Craft & Commerce apart is its deliberate sense of occasion. Happy hour here is not merely a prelude to dinner but a curated vignette, spirited, inventive, and unmistakably Little Italy.
