"The Deal: $1.50 oysters, $20 carafe of wine, $9 house wines A Lower East Side staple for more than a decade now, The Ten Bells is one of those bars that’s always a good time. It has a ton of character, is filled with regulars, and has way better food than a fun wine bar in this part of town really needs to have. On top of that, they serve $1.50 oysters during happy hour. (They have another location in Bushwick with the same great deal.)" - willa moore, neha talreja, will hartman, sonal shah
