Naples’ Top 10 Happy Hours: A 2026 Countdown
What makes a Happy Hour good? Discounts matter, sure, but ambiance, food that actually tastes like more than leftovers, and interesting drinks also count. We’ve scoured all the recommendations and poured more than a few drinks along the way to bring you this list.
So go forth and enjoy some of the best food and drinks Naples has to offer without a second thought to treating yourself (and your friends)!
10. Caffè Milano
Happy Hour Times: 3 PM – 4:45 PM daily
Location: 800 5th Ave S, Naples, FL 34102
Happy Hour Deals: 50% off food; $5 beer; $7 select wine & cocktails
Why it’s here: Caffè Milano is the quintessential downtown start point where half-off food takes the sting out of 5th Avenue South pricing without sacrificing flavor. Roll in early, snag a window seat, and sample burrata, bruschetta, or devilishly good calamari while the afternoon sun hits just right.
Happy Hour Times: 3 PM – 6 PM daily
Location: 2700 Immokalee Rd, Naples, FL 34110
Happy Hour Deals: $3.50 domestic drafts; $4 bottled beer; $11 beer pitchers; food specials including $1 wings, $3 sliders, and rotating seafood bar bites
Why it’s here: A mainstay for seafood lovers with no pretension. Rusty’s is where you go for oysters and peel-and-eat shrimp with a cold beer in hand. The drinks are easy on the wallet, and the food is straightforward, fresh, and generous.
8. The Oasis
Happy Hour Times: ~11 AM – 7 PM daily (extended promos)
Location: 1046 Pine Ridge Rd, Naples, FL 34108
Happy Hour Deals: $3 domestics; $4 well drinks; $5 house wine; $3 mini burgers (3–7 PM); rotating daily food and drink specials
Why it’s here: Oasis is the locals’ backyard bar. Long happy hours, frozen cocktails, and comfort food with many fans. House wines, cold domestics, tiki-style drinks, and truly cheap snacks.
7. The Claw Bar
Happy Hour Times: Daily 3 PM – 5 PM (drinks only Sun & Mon)
Location: 221 9th St S, Naples, FL 34102
Happy Hour Deals: $4 domestic bottles; $5 drafts; $7 mixed drinks and house wines; $10 house martinis; discounted seafood small plates
Why it’s here: With its location inside the Bellasera Hotel, The Claw Bar feels like a hidden little gem where oysters and bubbles replace the usual bar fries. Happy Hour prices won’t make your jaw drop, but the oysters + prosecco combo and Coconut Curry Mussels are worth lingering over.
6. Aqua
Happy Hour Times: 4 PM – 7 PM daily
Location: 862 5th Ave S, Naples, FL 34102
Happy Hour Deals: $6 domestic beers; $7 imported beers; $10 house wines and cocktails
Why it’s here: Aqua’s Happy Hour is one of the most generous downtown — $6 domestic beers and $7 imported, $10 house wines and cocktails, and plenty of small plate options that feel like mini meals. You’ll see smoked mahi dip ($11), chili shrimp tacos ($11), coconut shrimp ($11), and crisp bruschetta ($10) on the list, not just chips and pretzels.
Happy Hour Times: 2:30 PM – 5:30 PM daily
Location: 9118 Strada Pl, Naples, FL 34108
Happy Hour Deals: 50% off beer; $5 off wines and cocktails; discounted small plates
Why it’s here: Known affectionately as the Mercato hitter, Bar Tulia brings a robust happy hour small plates menu that can pass off as dinner. Meatballs, pizzas, sliders are executed with precision and not as an afterthought, and $5-off wines/cocktails take the edge off.
4. LoLa 41
Happy Hour Times: 4 PM – 6 PM daily
Location: 560 9th St S, Naples, FL 34102
Happy Hour Deals: $5 craft beers; $10 signature cocktails, wine, and sake; discounted sushi rolls and small plates
Why it’s here: Downtown’s sushi-forward happy hour that doesn’t pretend to be stuck in a bar rut. This spot pairs creative cocktails with sushi and small plates like Peking Duck Bao Buns, dynamite rolls, and fun drinks like the Con-Cu-Bine and Cucumbertini fit right into the lively crowd.
Happy Hour Times: 3 PM – 5 PM daily
Location: 600 Neapolitan Way, Naples, FL 34103
Happy Hour Deals: $3 beer; $5 house wines; $7 select cocktails; $5–$9 bar bites including wings, coconut shrimp, and fish sliders
Why it’s here: More than just a quirky name, Hogfish Harry’s serves classic tropical cocktails, $3 beer and dirt-cheap bar bites with the friendliest service around. For happy hour in Naples, it doesn’t get more classic than this.
Happy Hour Times: Tuesday – Sunday, 2 PM – 6 PM
Location: 1490 5th Ave S, Suite 101, Naples, FL 34102
Happy Hour Deals: Discounted bar menu with rotating chef specials, shareable plates, and reduced-price signature cocktails
Why it’s here: Nosh is still one of Naples’ top happy hours. Little compares to the waterfront seats, rotating chef specials, and discounts in a high-end setting. Crispy duck wings ($12) and beef tenderloin tips ($16) are regular hitters, with Pomelo Paradise cocktails ($12) to wash it down.
Happy Hour Times:
• Monday 4 PM – 10 PM
• Tuesday – Sunday 4 PM – 6 PM
Location: 1500 5th Avenue South, Naples, FL 34102
Happy Hour Deals: 50% off cocktails, wine by the glass, and beer; discounted dim sum and small plates
Why it’s #1: This is a newcomer. Blackbird’s Happy Hour knocks the usual “discounted drinks” model out of the park with 50% off cocktails, wine by the glass, and beer, and small plates that are genuinely as good as something you’d order at full price. Shareables like Wok-Charred Edamame ($9), Orange Chili Calamari ($15), dim sum like Mongolian Brisket Bao Buns ($5.50) and Spicy Pork Wontons ($6), make Blackbird the newest hit for happy hour in an upscale setting.
