Frozen drinks in treasure chests, burgers & $1 oysters
"The Deal: $6 house cocktails, $6 snacks, and rotating daily specials (which include weekly sandwich specials, $2 gulf oysters, and $1.59 wings) The good-time energy at Winnie’s, a vibrant Cajun-Creole bar in Midtown, can be felt as soon as you walk through the doors. There’s plenty of space at the massive bar to cozy up on their bright-yellow chairs and decide which frozen drink will keep you company. The happy hour here runs weekdays from 3-6pm, so you can pop in for $6 house cocktails and daily food specials like $2 gulf oysters and $1.50 wings. And if Monday happy hour ends and you still don’t want to leave, burgers at Winnie’s are $5 after 6pm, which is the perfect excuse to spend a little more time hanging out on the adorable patio." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"It’s almost impossible to leave Winnie’s without a smile on your face. We usually make a beeline for the mile-long bar at the vibrant Midtown Cajun-Creole spot and get straight to business. And by “business,” we mean slinging back as many Gulf Coast oysters as our bodies can handle while we swing our feet like schoolchildren. In addition to some of the meanest handhelds Midtown has to offer (hello, shrimp po’boy), Winnie’s keeps the house tunes pumping as long as you can keep up. And if you’re here with a group, Winnie’s also does frozen drink flights served in treasure chests, making the cocktails more exciting." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"This festive Mid-main hot spot serves up serious sandwiches, including the Rodeo burger that’s topped with smoked cheddar, barbecue sauce, fried jalapeños, onion strings, and mayo on a potato bun for $14. The Winn-A-Burger, however, is its classic. The Oklahoma-style smash burger comprises a 44 Farms beef patty layered with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, Serrano mustard, and mayo au poivre. Pro-tip: Get Winnie’s classic burger any time in single ($12) or double ($15) form, or head there on a Monday after 8 p.m. for its $5 late-night burgers and cocktail specials." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Summer or not, a good frozen drink is a treasure and nobody understands that like the folks at Winnie's, a Midtown Cajun-Creole bar. You’ll find four frozen options on the menu, and our favorite is the peach bourbon tea icee, which is essentially a frozen spiked sweet tea. But in truth, the best option is to order a frozen flight in a treasure chest, where you try all four of the frozens on the menu. What To Order: Peach bourbon tea icee, treasure chest flight" - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"While the inside of Winnie’s can get pretty lively, sometimes you need an intimate patio moment. The Midtown bar’s adorable outdoor seating lets you be a little more secluded without sacrificing any fun. And the pimento cheese queso tastes just as good outside, especially when the AC inside is a little overzealous. So grab a picnic table, a few friends, and work through a frozen drink treasure chest flight in peace." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
