How to Save Money on Drinks
Drinks are the easiest place to overspend — here’s where the real value is.
Order the pitcher, not the glass
A sangria pitcher at ~$26.50 serves 4 (~$6.63 each) versus $8.50 a glass. For a table of four, that’s about $7.50 saved before tax.
Lean on never-ending refills
The $3.69 iced tea or fountain drink is effectively unlimited dine-in. Two refills and you’re drinking at about $1.23 a glass.
Pick the $6.50 cocktails
The Sicilian Sunset and Amaretto Sour are the cheapest cocktails on the menu — $3 less than the Italian Margarita.
Choose the $15 featured wine bottles
Four featured bottles sell for $15 a bottle — cheaper per glass than most cocktails.
Watch the specials menu
Limited-time food promotions sometimes bundle drink deals — check specials and happy hour before you go.
Water is free
Tap water costs nothing and keeps the table’s drink bill at zero — pair it with the free breadsticks on a tight night.
