Downtown's happy hours run from whiskey lodges and agave bars to classic cocktail rooms, plus the Arts District's patio bars east toward the river — built for the end of the workday.
Most of these start around 3 PM and run until about 7 PM. 5 of the 5 also run on the weekend.
A second-floor downtown whiskey bar at Seventh and Grand, the corner it's named for, with a long daily happy hour from 4 to 8: $10 old fashioneds, Gold Rushes and Toki highballs.
Downtown's Oaxacan-style mezcal cantina at Sixth and Main, open since 2010, pours $9 margaritas and palomas until 7 every day, and all night on Tuesdays.
The 8th Street dive downtown with happy hour from 3 to 8 every day: $5 house drafts and well shots, $6 wells and $9 Gold Rushes.
A downtown Sixth Street bar with a storybook-themed menu and a weekday happy hour from 3 to 7 (to 9 on Sundays): $12 classic cocktails, $9 house wines and $8 onion dip.
An Arts District bar with a wine garden, open Wednesday to Sunday, with a 4-to-6 hour: $11 cocktails, $10 boilermakers, $6 lager pints and a $14 burger and fries.

Take the B or D Line to Pershing Square or 7th St/Metro Center; for the Arts District, the A or E Line to Little Tokyo/Arts District.
Most of the bars sit between Pershing Square and the Historic Core, along 6th, 7th and 8th Streets, with the Arts District a short ride east. Go straight from work: downtown's happy hours start in the afternoon and wind down by early evening.
