Tommy Bahama Happy Hour Menu With Prices
The first tables use Scottsdale’s Restaurant & Bar menu. Prices and offers vary by location; tax and gratuity are additional. Where the offer is a dollar discount, the happy-hour price below is calculated from the posted regular price.
| Food | Regular price | Happy-hour price |
|---|---|---|
| Bar Burger Slider | Happy-hour item | $5 |
| Blackened Mahi Mahi Taco | Happy-hour item | $6 |
| Chicken Tortilla Soup | $10 | $6 |
| Lump Blue Crab Bisque | $13 | $9 |
| Guacamole & Fire Roasted Salsa | $15 | $11 |
| Goat Cheese Dip | $17 | $13 |
| Ahi Tuna Tacos | $18 | $14 |
| World Famous Coconut Shrimp | $19 | $15 |
| Scallop Sliders | $20 | $16 |
| Lobster Spring Rolls | $23 | $19 |
| Lump Blue Crab Cakes | $25 | $21 |
The slider and single mahi mahi taco have their own happy-hour prices. They are different menu entries from the full-size burger and taco entrée. For starters, the discount is $4 off each eligible dish.
If you want a small bite, the soup, slider or single taco costs less than a larger seafood starter. To share, compare the dip and shrimp options with the more expensive crab cakes and lobster rolls before ordering.
Happy Hour Cocktails, Wine and Beer
Scottsdale’s drinks offer is $4 off specialty cocktails and wine by the glass, plus $8 well drinks and $6 select draft beer. A $4 discount does not mean every drink costs $4.
| Cocktail — Scottsdale | Regular | After $4 discount |
|---|---|---|
| Bahia Sangria, glass | $13 | $9 |
| Classic Mojito | $15 | $11 |
| Cucumber Smash | $15 | $11 |
| Happily Aperol | $15 | $11 |
| Mai Tai | $16 | $12 |
| Frozen Mai Tai | $16 | $12 |
| Tommy Margarita | $16 | $12 |
| Blood Orange Margarita | $16 | $12 |
| Raspberry Jalapeño Paloma | $16 | $12 |
| Miss Sunshine | $17 | $13 |
| Grapefruit Basil Martini | $17 | $13 |
| Coconut Cloud Martini | $17 | $13 |
| Espresso Martini | $17 | $13 |
| Baja Margarita | $18 | $14 |
| Grey Goose Martini | $18 | $14 |
Wine prices depend on the glass you choose. Scottsdale’s listed $13 glasses become $9, $14 glasses become $10, and $15 glasses become $11 under the offer. Bottles and sangria pitchers are not listed as part of the by-the-glass discount.
For another seafood-and-cocktail option, compare the Pacific Catch Aloha Hour menu. Its offers have their own food selection and participation rules.
Happy Hour Times by Location
| Location | Days | Happy-hour time |
|---|---|---|
| Scottsdale, AZ | Daily | 3–5 p.m. |
| The Woodlands, TX | Daily | 3–5 p.m. |
| Sarasota, FL | Daily | 3–5 p.m. |
| Palm Desert, CA | Daily | 3–5 p.m. |

| New York City, NY | Monday–Saturday | 3–6 p.m. |
| Naples, FL | Daily | Location page: 2–6 p.m.; linked menu: 3–5 p.m. |
All times are local. Naples needs a quick phone check: its location page advertises a longer window than the linked lunch menu. Call (239) 643-6889 if you plan to arrive before 3 p.m. or after 5 p.m.
New York is the exception to the daily schedule in this table: the restaurant is closed Sunday. At the other listed locations, “daily” includes Saturday and Sunday. Restaurant opening hours are longer than happy-hour hours.
Marlin Bar Happy Hour Menu
Marlin Bars have a different food lineup. Winter Park’s daily 3–5 p.m. offer takes $4 off all shareables, with a $10 single All-American Burger and a $6 Blackened Mahi Mahi Taco.
| Winter Park food | Happy-hour price | |
|---|---|---|
| Guacamole & Fire Roasted Salsa | $8 | |
| Street Corn Dip | $9 | |
| Margherita Flatbread | $12 | |
| Ahi Tuna Tacos | $13 | |
| World Famous Coconut Shrimp | $14 | |
| Chicken & Pesto Flatbread | $14 | |
| Steak Flatbread | $16 | |
| All-American Burger | single | $10 |
| Blackened Mahi Mahi Taco | $6 |
The shareable prices above apply the posted $4 discount. Winter Park also lists $4 off specialty cocktails and wines by the glass, $8 well drinks and $6 select draft beer.
A single burger plus a qualifying draft beer comes to $16 before tax and tip. Guacamole plus a draft beer comes to $14. These are order combinations calculated from the menu, not separate combo promotions.
Winter Park’s linked menu also carries a promotion labeled “Summer Specials.” Because that label does not establish an October end date, confirm it with the bar before planning around after-5 p.m. discounts.
Waikiki Happy Hour Menu
Waikiki’s current lunch menu and location page both show 3–5 p.m. daily in the bar. Its offer is $5 off starters, specialty cocktails and wine by the glass, with $10 well drinks and $8 select draft beer.
| Waikiki food | Happy-hour price |
|---|---|
| Bar Burger Slider | $7 |
| Blackened Mahi Mahi Taco | $8 |
| Chicken Tortilla Soup | $7 |
| Lump Blue Crab Bisque | $10 |
| Guacamole & Fire Roasted Salsa | $12 |
| Goat Cheese Dip | $14 |
| World Famous Coconut Shrimp | $17 |
| Scallop Sliders | $18 |
| Lobster Spring Rolls | $19 |
| Ahi Tuna Poke | $21 |
| Lump Blue Crab Cakes | $23 |
Starter prices above subtract the listed $5 discount. For drinks, a $16 Classic Mojito becomes $11, an $18 Mai Tai becomes $13, and a $19 Coconut Cloud Martini becomes $14. The current offer differs from older Waikiki happy-hour menus that still circulate online.
Seating, Reservations and Special Offers
The menus specify happy hour in the bar. A dining-room reservation does not by itself confirm happy-hour seating; ask for an eligible table when you arrive. Naples, Scottsdale and Waikiki encourage reservations and also welcome walk-ins. Winter Park now accepts reservations too.
For groups, the Scottsdale, Waikiki and Winter Park menus list a 20% gratuity for parties of seven or more. Include that when comparing the cost of a group visit.
Do not assume an Island Club award can be combined with these offers. The program’s published terms exclude alcohol and happy-hour menu items from eligible restaurant redemption.
If you are choosing between nearby Arizona restaurants, the Buck & Rider happy-hour menu offers another seafood-focused comparison. For a wider mix of bar bites, see Culinary Dropout’s happy-hour menu.
