Rocket Bar

This Chinatown spot is the ultimate dive bar—complete with cheap drinks, pool tables, dart boards, arcade games, and robots. Head down a set of steep steps, and you’ll walk into a dark, dingy bar that is usually packed. Rocket Bar’s Happy Hour is from 4-8pm everyday and you can snag $5 beer, wine, and rail drinks. One of the best things about Rocket Bar is that although they don’t serve food here, you can bring your own snacks, whether that’s from home or a nearby restaurant (of which there are plenty).
