FIVE Tuscaloosa
2324 6th St., Tuscaloosa · (205) 345-6089 · Dinner Wednesday 4-10 p.m.

- Happy hour daily, 4-6 p.m., at the bar: half-price beer and well drinks, half-off signature cocktails

Heat Pizza Bar
2250 6th St., Tuscaloosa · (205) 632-3282 · Open Wednesday 4-9 p.m.

- Dine-in only. Free parking deck behind the restaurant, entered from 7th Street.
Heads up: Heat’s site lists Wednesday hours starting at 4 p.m., so the 2 p.m. happy hour start does not line up. The site also says all daily specials begin at 6 p.m., which conflicts with the 4-6 p.m. pizza window. Call before you go.

1925 University Blvd., Tuscaloosa · (205) 345-1199 · Open Wednesday 11 a.m.-2 a.m.

2216 University Blvd., Tuscaloosa · Taproom open Wednesday 3-11 p.m.
- Wednesday: 20% off all growler fills
Heads up: the weekly events list on the brewery’s site is dated for a week in January, so this deal may not be current. No phone number is listed. Ask at the taproom before you fill.
What is the cheapest way to do tonight?
Split a $12 pizza at Heat between 4 and 6 p.m., then walk to FIVE for happy hour before 6. If your group drinks wine, a half-price bottle at FIVE beats buying by the glass. If you are under 21 or not drinking, the $12 pizza and Jack Brown’s $12.49 burger are the best food deals on the list.
Is it a game week?
Yes, and a busy one. Alabama men’s basketball plays Auburn in a preseason exhibition Thursday at 7 p.m. in Birmingham (see the Alabama vs. Auburn Feud preview). Football hosts Texas A&M for homecoming Saturday, Oct. 24 (see the Texas A&M at Alabama preview). Plan your watch party with our sports bars in Tuscaloosa guide and the full Tuscaloosa bars guide.
How do you get home safe?
You must be 21 to drink, and bars check ID. If you are drinking, do not drive. UA students can call 348-RIDE at (205) 348-7433, or use a rideshare. Set your ride before you go out.
