I never thought living in Midtown meant so many opportunities for Happy Hour, right around the corner. My girls and I recently stumbled on a Wednesday night special that’s sure to stick - Ladies Night at Piola off 11th Street/Peachtree. This “chain” thin crust pizza standby has locations all around the world and certainly feels like you walk into an international mecca as soon as you walk in. Plus, they’ve got weekly specials that will make any night seem like a good night to eat out (Brazilian night on Sunday or all you can eat gnocchi on Friday anyone?).

Specifically, their Wednesday Night Ladies night offers bottomless red or white wine or, my personal weakness, sangria if you purchase an entree. That’s basically drinking for free if you’ve already planned on eating out. Pick out any one of their thin crust pizzas or pastas and sip on as much as you wish (or can handle). Also, get in early to have some free appetizers by the bar before you sit down at a table.

All in all: a great option for a classy, mid-week excuse to get out of the house during these winter months. Round up your crew and hope to see you Wednesday nights at Piola!
