LongHorn Happy Hour — Times, Drinks & Deals

Tips From Sitting Through It
- Arrive by 4:15 PM for a seat before the after-work crush.
- Margarita at happy hour pricing is the best cocktail value on the board.
- Ask about appetizer specials — they aren't always printed.
- Happy hour usually doesn't stack with coupons.
- Pair with a steak later? Order food after 7 if you want full dinner pacing.
Honest caveat: Availability and pricing vary by location. Figures above are national averages from recent visits — not a guarantee at your grill.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time is happy hour at LongHorn?
LongHorn happy hour typically runs Monday–Friday, about 4:00–7:00 PM at participating locations (some markets start closer to 3 PM). Not every location offers it — call ahead.
Does every LongHorn have happy hour?
No. Participation varies by location. Urban and suburban spots are more likely than rural ones. I've driven to a "sure thing" that didn't run happy hour that month.
What drinks are included in happy hour?
Usually discounted house wine, domestic drafts, and select cocktails including The Perfect Margarita. Some kitchens also discount apps like spinach dip or shrimp.
Is happy hour only at the bar?
At most locations pricing extends to the full dining room. A few restrict it to the bar — ask when you sit.
Does LongHorn have weekend happy hour?
Rare. Occasional Saturday afternoon specials exist; Sunday happy hour is uncommon.
What should I pair with happy hour drinks?
Spinach artichoke dip or Wild West Shrimp if they're discounted. For a full meal after, the Renegade Sirloin keeps the check sane.
