Labor Day Weekend 2026: Verified NH Happy Hour Deals
Labor Day weekend 2026 runs Friday, Sept. 4 through Monday, Sept. 7. If you are staying in New Hampshire, this is the last long stretch before the state flips from summer mode to school-night mode. The useful question is not where the fireworks are. It is which bars still have a real happy hour on the days you can actually go.
Holiday hours caveat: The deals below come from live NH Happy Hour listings. Those records are regular weekly happy hours, not a Labor Day 2026 schedule. Plenty of kitchens close early Monday, skip a window, or stay on a weekend clock. Call the venue or check the live page before you drive. Do not treat a Monday happy hour as proof a room is open on Labor Day.
This is a short statewide pass, not another city dump. Hampton already has its own Hampton happy hour guide. Portsmouth and Nashua do too. What follows is eight venues with complete, priced deals that actually apply Friday through Monday, grouped by seacoast, Nashua, and the White Mountains.
Full live roster: nhhappyhour.com.
The Shuck Shack
3 D St, Hampton
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/the-shuck-shack-hampton-nh
Happy hour every day, 12-5 p.m., including Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
- $1 oysters
- $4 Bud Light and Tecate
This is the Hampton stop that does not need a boardwalk plan. Show up before 5, eat a dollar oyster, and you are done overthinking the afternoon.
Point Break
9 Ocean Blvd, Hampton
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/point-break-hampton-nh
Happy hour Friday 4-6 p.m., Saturday and Sunday 2-5 p.m. No Monday window is listed, so skip it on Labor Day unless you confirm something else.
- Drinks: $3 domestic bottles, $8 house margarita, $10 sangria, $10 spritz, $10 drink of the week
- Food: $1 oysters, $6 half-order brussels, $6 half-order wings
Ocean Boulevard will be loud this weekend. The argument for stopping is the price, not the view. Friday is the shorter window. Saturday and Sunday start at 2, which is the better beach-day play.
The Wilder
174 Fleet St, Portsmouth
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/the-wilder-portsmouth-nh
Happy hour every day, 3:30-6 p.m. That covers all four days of the weekend.
- $6 local drafts and the nitro espresso martini
- $7 mules
- $8 house wine
- $18 Caesar, fries, and a martini
- $20 half-dozen oysters and a martini
Fleet Street is walkable and not trying to be a resort bar. If you are already downtown Friday after work or killing the Sunday gap before dinner, this is the Portsmouth listing with both a daily clock and actual prices.
Row 34 Portsmouth
5 Portwalk Pl, Portsmouth
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/row-34-portsmouth-portsmouth-nh
Happy hour Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 3-5 p.m.; Monday 4-5 p.m. One hour on Monday is easy to miss, and Labor Day hours are not confirmed here.
- $1 oysters (chef's selection)
- $15 burgers and fish and chips
- $10 mai tais and margaritas
- $5 rotating draft lager
Portsmouth happy hour is usually a rumor and a wait. Row 34 at least puts numbers on the page. If you want the oyster math twice in one weekend, do Shuck Shack earlier and this later.
Martha's Exchange Restaurant and Brewery
185 Main St, Nashua
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/marthas-exchange-restaurant-and-brewery-nashua-nh
Happy hour Monday through Friday, 4-6 p.m. That gives you Friday and, if they are running a normal Monday, Labor Day. Saturday has no happy hour window listed. Bar only on the drink deal.
- Buy one drink, get one for a penny (single liquor, house wine, or house brew)
- $10 select appetizers
- Friday and Saturday after 4 p.m.: 18 oz prime rib, two sides, and a 16 oz beer for $32
- Monday: burger and a 16 oz beer for $16
Main Street Nashua is the inland answer if the seacoast is a parking problem. Friday you can stack the penny drink with the prime rib plate. Saturday you are there for the rib, not happy hour. Confirm Monday before you treat Labor Day like a normal Burger Monday.
La Hacienda Del Rio
4 Taggart Dr, Nashua
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/la-hacienda-del-rio-nashua-nh
Happy hour Monday through Friday, 3-6 p.m. No Saturday or Sunday window in the listing, so this is a Friday and possible Monday stop only.
- $2.99 beef or chicken tacos
- $5.99 cheese nachos
- $4.75 domestic drafts, $5.95 craft and import drafts
- $8.99 house margarita
Taggart Drive is not downtown, which is the point on a holiday weekend. Cheap tacos and a house margarita beat sitting in Route 3 traffic hoping Portsmouth has a table. Friday is the safe day. Monday needs a phone call.
Rebels
234 White Mountain Hwy, Conway
Live listing: nhhappyhour.com/venue/rebels-conway-nh
Happy hour every day, 4-7 p.m., with a separate lunch special from 12-3 p.m. That is the most complete Friday-through-Monday mountain listing on the site right now.
- $3 well drinks
- $3 beers (selection varies)
- 25% off all food, 4-7 p.m.
- $5 lunch handhelds, 12-3 p.m. (Rebel Burger, BBQ pulled pork, hot honey chicken, crispy cod, and similar)
If you are already on the White Mountain Highway, this is a priced window, not a "check the board" shrug. Three hours in the afternoon is long enough to use after a hike or a slow drive north.
Woodstock Inn Brewery
135 Main Street, North Woodstock
Happy hour daily, 3-5 p.m., in the bar areas only. Draft discount is listed every day. Appetizer specials are listed Monday through Friday only, so treat Saturday and Sunday as a beer deal, not a food deal.
- $1.75 off draft pints, 3-5 p.m., bar areas only
- Appetizer specials Monday through Friday, 3-5 p.m., bar areas only
North Woodstock is a different weekend than Conway. The brewery listing is one of the few mountain records with a daily clock and a specific dollar discount. It is not a promise they are pouring on Labor Day. Confirm hours if Monday is your only shot.
That is the honest map for Friday, Sept. 4 through Monday, Sept. 7: Hampton and Portsmouth if you want oysters, Nashua if you want Main Street or Taggart Drive, Conway and North Woodstock if you are already north.
