"When: Mon-Fri 5-7pm Only At The Bar The Deal: $6 Beer, $10 Cocktails and Wine, $7-$16 Snacks Tanta in River North is an appealing alternative for when you just can’t with your coworker and their "beer and a slider" choice for the fourth happy hour in a row. It’s always a fun spot for dinner (thanks to clubby lighting and a pop playlist), but Tanta is also great for pisco-based drinks and Peruvian snacks like cebiches and empanadas. And since the deals run until 7pm, you can still enjoy a pisco sour and anticucho even if you got stuck on a 4:30pm call that could have been an email." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
