Applebee's Grill + Bar Happy Hour. Off-Strip

The Rainbow and Spring Mountain Applebee's is the version of the chain that actually works as a neighborhood bar, which is exactly what you want it for. The move is the half-price appetizer deal: it kicks in from 3 to 6 in the afternoon, then comes back at 9pm and holds until close. Since this location stays open to midnight most nights and 1am on Friday and Saturday, that late window is genuinely long. Boneless wings and the pretzels with beer cheese dip are the standard orders. The deal is dine-in only, so grab a seat at the bar where the TVs are.

Chinatown sits just east down Spring Mountain, so this makes an easy cheap nightcap stop after a noodle crawl. Nobody rushes you out.
