Happy Hours

Starting tomorrow and every Saturday from thereafter the Iron Chef’s burger-and-whiskey Valhalla will offer weekend warriors and whiskey-loving early birds specially priced food and drinks from 2 to 4 p.m. Each week the Village Whiskey crew will pour featured craft whiskeys for $7 and a rotating selection of cocktails for $6 (see below for more details). In addition to whiskey and cocktails, specially priced draught beers and red and white wines will be served alongside a tempting array of bar snacks.

Bar snacks will include VW Burger Sliders, BBQ Pork Sliders and Pickle Canapes, featuring different house-made pickles each week will be available for $3.
