"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
"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
"This Mid-Main gem boasts $6 happy hour food and drink specials from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays.

Beyond the happy hour menu, daily specials include $5 burgers after 6 p.m. on Mondays, $2 oysters on Tuesdays, $1.50 wings on Wednesdays, and daiquiris for $1 on Fridays." - Brianna Griff
