Toronto restaurants have so many happy hour deals every day of the week and the cheap prices are hard to resist.

After a long day at work, there’s nothing better than a cheap drink and eats duo, and there are a bunch of Toronto happy hour spots to make it happen.

From wine and pizza to margaritas and tacos, there are so many different Toronto restaurants with a variety of cuisines that have happy hour menus, you just need to know where to find them.

However, it's also worth noting that the city is filled with deals, and keeping track of it all can be hard. For this article, we will focus on the Financial and Entertainment districts in Toronto, where many offices are to help guide the corporate girlies to the cheapest deals.

Here are seven happy hour menus you need to check out in downtown Toronto to get some delicious eats and thirst-quenching cocktails at cheap prices.

Petty Cash

Why You Need To Go: While many people might not think of Petty Cash as a place to eat in Toronto, they have a food menu filled with so many delicious eats.

And the best part is that their happy hour menu is available every day from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. You can get a full-sized pizza for half price and enjoy a dollar-an-ounce wine, $7 rail and $7 beer bottles.
