BESPOKE: BEST OYSTER HAPPY HOUR IN HARLEM

Harlem Bespoke:  Oysters on the half shell have made a comeback in the city in the past decade and there are some great spots uptown to check out for those looking for a Happy Hour special.  Dollar oysters are usually served up from 5:00PM-7:00PM on weekdays but times might vary a slightly from each venue.  Apparently months with the letter R are peak time to eat the fresh delicacy since they are at their prime during the cooler months so make sure to stop by these local eateries for a pocket-friendly experience:

Maison Harlem, 341 St. Nicholas Avenue at the corner of 127th Street.  Harlem's favorite French restaurant has a wildly popular Happy Hour so make sure to come early since the bar fills up quickly even at the beginning of the evening. Best bets are probably earlier in the week when things are less crowded.  More on Maison Harlem in our past post: LINK

B2 Harlem, 271 West 119th Street, east of Frederick Douglass Boulevard.  The former Billie's Black still has the same owner but has been transformed into one of uptown's most under the radar seafood restaurants.  This eatery is probably one of the best spots for $1 oysters since there usually is not a wait for a spot at the bar.  More details on B2 Harlem can be found in our past post: LINK

ROKC, 3452 Broadway by 141st Street.  Last time we checked, there was a $1.50 Oyster Happy hour at the boutique Japanese ramen and raw bar in Hamilton Heights.  Dropping by early is probably beneficial besides getting a deal on fresh oysters since lines for a table or spot at the tiny bar form by the time 8:00 rolls around.  More on ROKC can be found in our past post: LINK
