Forest Hills has a polished happy hour scene for a neighborhood outside Manhattan. Pubs, bar-and-restaurants, and a few standout lounges line Austin Street and Metropolitan Avenue, with weekday specials that cater to the commuter crowd heading back from the city. Prices are fair, the atmosphere is friendly, and the neighborhood's tree-lined streets give the whole experience a slightly more relaxed feel than most of Queens.
