Where To Eat In Arlington When You Are Nearly Broke
Lately, I’ve been eating at restaurants in Arlington on bargain nights. Are my friends cheap? Well, yeah, that is one of the reasons I like them! So here are a few options that might be a bit cheaper than the bargain recommendations you normally read about.
Monday nights at Rock Bottom Brewery in Ballston are Wings Nights. 25 cent wings and $2.50 Rockbottom draft beers is definitely a good deal. How are the wings? They are decent, but I will give a better wing recommendation later in this article. Their beer selection is definitely a good value at $2.50 a pint. Wings Night specials are available in the bar from 4:00 pm - 9:00 pm.
Tuesday nights at Ragtime in Courthouse are Raw Bar Night, from 4pm until closing. For $2.95 take your pick of: 1/2 Dozen Mussels sautéed in white wine/butter served with bread, 1/4 Pound spiced, steamed shrimp, 1/2 Dozen Steamed clams served with butter, or 1/2 Dozen Raw Oysters. You will go through a bunch of plates, but it is still a good deal. They also have happy hour specials on beer and select rail drink
Wednesday nights is Wing Night at Hard Times Café’s in Clarendon. Wings are 30c each on Wing Night (ordered by the dozen) and come in 4 varieties: original Texas, Chile Lime, Honey BBQ, and Honey Mustard (Cadillac). You can order the wings grilled. I personally like the grilled Texas wings. They only slightly discount some of their beer during Wing Night happy hours, so Rockbottom is a better Wing Night beer bargain.
Hard Times is known for their chili, so feel free to order that as well if you don’t just want bargain-priced wings. I personally like the Texas and the Terlingua chilis, but I have friends who like the Cincinnati and vegetarian chilis. Hard Times Clarendon also has a chili dog stand for the summer across the street at the metro Monday through Friday 11am-6pm.
And best of all, these three bargain nights are on three separate nights, so you can go to them all in the same week. I can hear my waistline expanding as I write this.
