Romano's Macaroni Grill launches new happy hour menu

Romano’s Macaroni Grill has launched a new happy hour menu.

From 3 p.m. until closing, guests at the bar can select from a tiered happy hour menu of drinks and appetizers priced at $4, $5 or $6. New menu items include warm, whipped feta served with grilled rosemary bread points; four varieties of 3-inch crispy pizzas including mushroom and goat cheese, and drinks such as Italian margaritas and nonalcoholic frizzantes.

“We wanted to welcome our guests in after a long day and provide them with a variety of popular, and new, items on our attractively priced Happy Hour menu,” Holly Wagstaff-Bellomo, vice president of marketing, said in a statement. “There’s nothing better than offering our guests the opportunity to relax, connect with friends in our bar, and enjoy our Happy Hour menu, every day of the week.”

The new happy hour menu comes just weeks after the chain filed for bankruptcy protection.
