Thrifty diners know that the best time for supper is early. Seniors know that early bird specials are the way to go, while drinking-types pin their hopes on happy hours. Peter B’s happy hour (every day 4-6:30pm) does a $3 pint deal and appetizer specials. Favorites include the buffalo wings, nachos, classic calamari and sweet-potato tater tots. That means there’s lots to be happy about, and not just the deals.
