Quick answer: Hawkers’ current happy hour is Monday–Thursday, 3–6 p.m.: half-price baos and beer, $3 off spirits, and $5 selected small plates. Three bao varieties and three $5 plates appear on the general happy hour food list. Friday, weekend, and late-night offers are not part of that general schedule.
Hawkers happy hour food menu
The tables cover every food choice on Hawkers’ current general happy hour list. The $5 prices are fixed advertised specials; bao prices depend on the local regular menu and are reduced by half. Tax and gratuity are extra.
$5 small plates
| Small Plate | What It Includes | Happy Hour Price |
|---|---|---|
| Spring Rolls | Vegetable filling with a vinaigrette dipping sauce | $5 |
| Chili Garlic Edamame | Edamame cooked with chili oil and garlic | $5 |
| Korean Fried Chicken | Chicken thighs with gochujang, peanuts, sesame, and cilantro | $5 |
This is a $5 price for selected plates, not $5 off every small plate. Roti Canai, dumplings, fries, and other regular-menu dishes are not automatically included.
Half-price baos
| Bao | Filling and Toppings | Happy Hour Offer |
|---|---|---|
| Chinese BBQ Pork | Roasted pork shoulder with hoisin and spring onions | 50% off the local bao price |
| Pork Belly | Pork belly, pickled mustard greens, cilantro, peanuts, and brown sugar | 50% off the local bao price |
| Seoul Hot Chicken | Fried chicken thigh, gochujang sauce, and spicy pickles | 50% off the local bao price |
A bao is a filled steamed bun. Check the serving count on your restaurant’s menu; the general promotion does not state that every location uses the same portion or regular price.
To work out your bill, halve the displayed qualifying bao price. For example, a $12 qualifying bao order would cost $6 under a 50% discount. That is an arithmetic example, not a verified nationwide $6 bao price.
Beer and spirit discounts
| Drink Category | General Happy Hour Offer | What to Check |
|---|---|---|
| Beer | 50% off | Local beer list, serving size, and qualifying choices |
| Spirits | $3 off | Eligible pour, brand, and whether your mixed drink qualifies |
| Wine | No general happy hour wine discount stated | Any separately offered local special |
| Saké or soju | No separate general discount stated | Ask about the particular order |
| Spirit-free drinks | No general discount stated | Order from the regular beverage list |
The half-price beer offer is different from $3 off spirits. If an eligible beer is normally $8, half off makes it $4. If an eligible spirit order is normally $12, a $3 discount makes it $9. These examples explain the discount; they are not local menu quotations.
Cocktails to ask about
Hawkers’ current beverage menu includes the following cocktails. Ask your server which qualify for the spirit discount and what the final price is; the general web menu does not publish a single dollar price for each cocktail.
| Cocktail | Main Flavors or Spirit | |
|---|---|---|
| Margari-Thai | Tequila, mango, chili, lime, and ginger | |
| Thai Basil Paloma | Tequila, basil, grapefruit, agave, and soda | |
| Five-spice Old Fashioned | Japanese whisky, five-spice syrup, and bitters | |
| Put a Wing on It | Bourbon, orange liqueur, and gochujang hot honey | |
| Lemongrass Mojito | Lemongrass-infused rum, lime, mint, and soda | |
| O.G. Pain Killer | Rum, pineapple, orange, and coconut | |
| Hibiscus Fizz | Hibiscus-infused gin with lemon | |
| Viet-Spresso | Vodka, coconut rum, Vietnamese coffee, and condensed milk | |
| Tiger’s Tail | Vodka, Aperol, passion fruit, lemon, mint, and soda | |
| Pho Two | Please | Gin, coconut rum, passion fruit, and herbs; listed for two |
Local breweries and beer selections change by market. The general beverage menu explains that locations carry different beers and ciders, so an old list from another city may not match the taps available today.
For an alcohol-free order, the regular menu includes Frui-Tea Fizz, Matcha Lychee Lemonade, Thai Iced Tea, Coco Kopi, and Orange Sunburst. These are regular beverage choices, with no general happy hour discount stated.
Happy hour times
| Day | Current General Happy Hour |
|---|---|
| Monday | 3–6 p.m. |
| Tuesday | 3–6 p.m. |
| Wednesday | 3–6 p.m. |
| Thursday | 3–6 p.m. |
| Friday | Not included in the general schedule |
| Saturday | Not included in the general schedule |
| Sunday | Not included in the general schedule |
Times are local. Hawkers is open beyond this three-hour window, but regular restaurant hours are not happy hour hours.
For East Nashville, confirm the local offer with the restaurant at (615) 600-4762 before planning a Friday visit or arriving at 2 p.m. Local listings advertise a broader window, while Hawkers’ general menu states Monday–Thursday, 3–6 p.m.; the Nashville location page does not independently spell out that broader promotion.
Older articles describe $3 small plates or late-night happy hour. Those are not the prices or times on the current general menu. Ask your restaurant about a separately advertised evening special rather than assuming an older schedule still applies.
Choosing your small plates
A simple way to share
The three $5 plates total $15 before tax and gratuity if you order one of each. That gives you vegetables, a fried vegetable roll, and a chicken dish. Add a qualifying half-price bao order if you want another filling or a different texture.
For a less spicy starting point, compare the Spring Rolls with the sauced chicken and chili-garlic edamame. The general menu marks the edamame, Korean Fried Chicken, and Seoul Hot Chicken Baos as spicy. Ask whether spice can be adjusted before ordering.
Different chicken dishes
The $5 Korean Fried Chicken uses sauced chicken thighs. It is a separate item from regular-menu Korean Twice Fried Wings and Chicken Karaage. Ordering a regular wings dish does not automatically give you the $5 happy hour chicken price.
If you are comparing Asian restaurant deals, our P.F. Chang’s happy hour menu covers its own small plates and drinks. For sushi and a different food selection, see the Kona Grill happy hour guide.
Locations, seating, and dietary needs
Find your restaurant in the Hawkers location directory. The Beltline restaurant is at 661 Auburn Avenue Northeast, Suite 180, Atlanta; Windermere is at 9100 Conroy Windermere Road, Suite 110; East Nashville is at 626A Main Street.
The general promotion does not promise bar-only seating or discounted delivery. Ask your location where the offer applies and whether there are order-channel restrictions. An online ordering menu can display regular prices even when a dine-in promotion is running.
Vegetarian choices, allergies, and calories
Spring Rolls and Chili Garlic Edamame are the vegetable-centered choices on the happy hour list. All three bao fillings contain meat. Tell your server if you need a vegetarian or vegan preparation, including sauces and shared cooking equipment.
Korean Fried Chicken and Pork Belly Baos include peanuts in their published descriptions; Korean Fried Chicken also includes sesame. Bao buns, sauces, and dipping sauces may introduce other allergens. Hawkers provides allergen and gluten/veggie-friendly guides, but confirm the current recipe and preparation with staff.
The current general happy hour page does not give verified calorie totals for these servings. A regular dish’s portion or an older allergen sheet should not be used to invent a happy hour calorie figure.
