Late Afternoon Eats

    With dark coming early on winter afternoons — even though the solstice has come and gone, bringing just a little more daylight now each day — an early supper or amuse bouche might be in order. The Hampton Seafood Company in East Hampton has a Thursday “happy hour” from 4 to 6 p.m., when fish tacos are served up to customers for $3 and shrimp tacos cost $4.

At the Bar

    Michaels’ at Maidstone offers its bar patrons a beer-and-burger special on Monday nights, with a burger and a pitcher of beer going for $16. Wednesday nights draw steak lovers to Michaels’, when various cuts of steak are served at special prices.

    The restaurant, which is in the Maidstone Park section of East Hampton, has a prix fixe special every night and serves dinner from 5 to 9 p.m. seven days a week.
