Cheap Date: The Hudson in WeHo Celebrates Anniversary With $3 Cocktails

Here at LAist, we are huge fans of happy hours. And dive bars. And gallery openings with free wine and cheese. Come to think of it, we're just cheap. Nay, frugal. Which is why tomorrow's celebration at the Hudson in West Hollywood got us so excited.
To toast their third anniversary, the converted rail car of a restaurant is offering your first drink for $3. The catch is that the cocktail has to be off of their new fall cocktail menu, which is listed below. (Normally the drinks go for $11 each.) Count us in.
