July 2018

Could your happy hour use a refresh?

When it comes to happy hour, we all have our favorite haunts. You find your must-haves – great drink specials, $1 oysters, trivia, or half-price apps – and get your happy-hour go-tos nailed down. Being a creature of habit, however, can seriously hinder your discovery of new and exciting destinations. Stick to the same spots, and before you know it, that hot new place you want to try has come and gone. Rochester’s new City Walk is here to save you from after-work social stagnation.

Second Wednesdays

The second Wednesday of each month, join Rochester A-List and ROConnoisseur for an on-foot exploration of a different city neighborhood. As you make your way from one establishment to another, you can expect great food, drinks, specials, and surprises – not to mention great company. There will even be a grand-prize drawing for an overnight stay for two at Del Lago Casino Resort with dinner for two at Portico by Fabio Viviani Restaurant. Everyone who attends a City Walk gets an entry, and the winner will be announced at the October event.
