How we score

The editorial take

Angry Goldfish Pub & Eatery runs a value-first beverage program built around daily discounts. A guest praised the Sex on the Beach as yummy. Whiskey and tequila take $1 off midweek, and Tuesday pairs a burger with a pint. The approach is straightforward and deal-driven.

What should I order?
Start with the Sex on the Beach, which a customer described as yummy. Time it for Friday or Saturday, when Deep Eddy Vodka mixed drinks run $4. The weekly specials also make Sangria on Sunday or half-off wine bottles on Monday a value play.
Who will enjoy this place?
Bargain hunters and casual groups will appreciate the rotating daily specials. The pub's frequent discounts on cocktails, wine, beer, and spirits make it an easy stop for those who like variety without a deep list.
What should I expect to spend?
Drink specials are clearly value-oriented: $4 mixed drinks on weekends, $1 off spirits midweek, and half-price wine bottles on Monday. A burger and pint runs $10 on Tuesday.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The program leans on a seven-day cycle of drink specials rather than a curated list. Half-off wine bottles on Monday and $4 Deep Eddy Vodka drinks on weekends are the clear hooks, with whiskey and tequila discounts midweek.
