They call it happy hour for a reason. You spend eight long ones every day serving customers, surviving meetings, pleasing bosses and coworkers – whatever it is you endure and excel at to make an honest living. Now you’re looking for that one hour to call your own and maintain your sanity. That happy time and place between work and home where you’re free to be anything but an employee, a manager, a parent or a spouse. It’s not too much to ask, and boy, does Woodinville have answers.

They don’t call this “wine country” for nothing, and seriously, doesn’t a vast expanse of wineries and tasting rooms sound like the ultimate 5 pm pick-me-up? But if fine wines can add some much-needed happiness to your day, the appetizers in this country are going to leave you giddy. Happy hour eats are a foodie fiefdom all their own, and from bruschetta to baked Brie, from sliders to truffle fries, afternoon menus throughout Woodinville have turned bargain bites into an art form.

On any given weekday, you can choose between dozens of tasting rooms, wine bars or eateries, and each is likely to offer not only wine and/or beer specials, but a full menu of happy hour morsels served between 3 and 6 pm. It’s enough to make even the most dedicated employee duck out a few minutes early. Because in a world where time is money, a weekly Woodinville happy hour can be almost priceless. Enjoy!
