NY Department of Health Considering Ban on Happy Hour

Party Poopers Eye Unhappy Hour

By GARY BUISO

Happy hour in the city could end if Department of Health policy party-poopers go ahead with a proposal to outlaw beer and booze specials at bars and restaurants, sources told The Post.

“It’s absolutely been discussed,” confirmed a department source. “It goes to show you the spirit with which they operate. Everyone is a child.”

My Son wasn’t raised here (divorce)
The first time he ate an entire Whataburger he was so proud.

I told him “son, today you became a man” LOL
Ever since, Whenever he visits we always have to get a Whataburger.
Now that he’s of age I will have to take him to Kellers.

I hate when the older places are torn down. We have one here that I frequent. But DQ and Sonic are hurting them.

Way to go Mylife’s son!!

There used to be several Kellers locations. Now I only know of one. It should be an experience for him. :)

If you decide to do a “burger tour”, there is a burger joint called Motor and Maple (also it’s location). Hole in the wall place, excellent burger, surly owners and...real tater tots. You can’t get in there during the lunch rush, which is probably a good thing for me!

Couldn't the bars just double their prices at 7PM ?

You’d be surprised how many people will eat at McDodo over a good burger place.

I don’t understand it but people do it.

They are still good..not out of business yet.

Sonic excels at speed. And truth be known, Sonic is hurting DQ as well.

DQ is suffering and I’m sure gonna miss the dip cones.

I think it equates to Home Depot and the local hardware store.

(And no, I didn’t miss the jab at the local burger joint vs DQ and Sonic.)

Dang..I didn’t notice you were from NJ.

Now, that’s where I always go to get a good burger. ;)

OK, I've gotta say it. I've held it in far too long....no matter who I piss off.

For a state that likes to revel in their "tough-guy" image, so street smart and sophisticated, so much swagger.....New York is populated by the biggest bunch of candy-assed pantywaists I've ever seen in my life.

They keep allowing this crap, they keep electing the Bloomberg's and their vile ilk, they keep losing the most basic of freedoms, and they do SQUAT about it.

Hey, New Yawkas.....grow a set and tell these a**holes to pound sand.

We really need to get behind this new rule, because clearly “Happy Hour” is the biggest problem facing the city.

Thanks Sub-Driver. I always appreciate knowing where to eat in an unfamiliar area.

Not sayin’ you don’t have a great burger, but if I visit NY or NJ I want to eat Italian. I hear it is out of this world. If close to the coast..I want to eat seafood.
