El Toro Taqueria
Happy Hour$1 tacos, $2 beers / 3pm-5pm

from reader Andrew:
"Here's a good one for ya to add:
El Toro Taqueria (17th and Valencia) has $1 tacos and $2 beers everyday from 3-5pm. Kinda early for happy hour, but really, is it ever too early for a deal?"

The Chameleon Cafe
Happy Hour$1.75 drafts / 4pm-7pm
1299 Pacific Avenue,
btw Jones St & Leavenworth St
Nob Hill
(415) 351-0338
The Nob-Job version of the NOPA-Dopes' Bean Bag Cafe: sub-$2 brewskis in a place where most people are doing homework on laptops.

Hotel Monaco
Free Winefree wine! / 5pm-7pm
501 Geary Street,
Union Square

It's as easy as looking like you belong there... which shouldn't be hard in these days of hobo-chic.

Kyoto Sushi
One Doll-Hair$1 Saparro on tap! / all day
1233 Van Ness Avenue,
(415) 351-1234
All day, every day, the watery-yet-dehydrating goodness flows smoothly down the throat.

***Columbus Cafe
Cheapo Happy Hour$1.50 drafts / 5pm-10pm
901 Columbus Avenue,
North Beach
(415) 409-9001
The North Beach counterpart to Bean Bag and Chameleon Cafe: $1.50 drafts daily from 5-10 pm. Their "Beat the Recession!" banner advertising this deal has been up since June, arguably making them better economists than Ben Bernanke.

Delirium
Shitty Beer, Shitty Bar$2 tecate cans all day, ev'rday / all day
3139 16th Street,
btw Albion & Valencia
Mission
(415) 552-5525
Say what you will about Delirium. It's a fave.
Straight/gay, femme, hipster, commitmentaphobe, tatooed neck, cigarettes, cheap beer, hair dye, crappy bathroom, smoky dance floor, sticky tables, photohunt, etc.

Rudy's Can't Fail Cafe
$1 beers all night$1 beers all night / 9pm-1am
4081 Hollis Street,
Emeryville
(510) 594-1221

601 Divisadero Street,
NOPA

Missouri Lounge
San Pablo Pride$5 boilermakers / opening-closing
2600 San Pablo Avenue,
btw Carleton & Parker
Berkeley
(510) 548-2080
Missouri Lounge's drinks specials present an opportunity for drunken tomfoolery that's pretty cheap and easy. Much like the hipster chicks that flock to its roundhouse-retro atmosphere.

Godspeed Cafe
Biker Happy Hour$1 canned beer / 5pm-7pm
5532 San Pablo Avenue,
at 56th St
Oakland
(510) 547-1313

***I happen to know that the HH @ Columbus Cafe is two-for-one pints. It happen's to be my fave HH spot- so you should check it out!
