Bar and restaurant deals shouldn't leave you with the choice between cheap pizza and PBR--although we love both. There are plenty of great restaurant and bar deals in Atlanta that also happen to be on some pretty damn good food and drink. From $3 sliders at the Shed (pictured) to $4 pints at a Virginia Highland barbecue joint to, yes, $1 PBR, our guide to frugal but awesome deals in Atlanta. (Photo: Shed sliders by Jonathan Baker)

We get pumped when really good restaurants offer really sweet dining deals. Take Agave, Cabbagetown's best restaurant, which does two for one appetizers at the bar from 5pm to 7pm every Sunday through Thursday.
The Shed does a barrage of highbrow weeknight specials that are almost too good to be true. On Tuesday, sangria gets dished out for $3, Wednesday is $3 slider night, and Thursday is harvest night, which features $10 four-item vegetable plates.
Rarely do good things accompany thunderstorms or stifling summer days, but Park Tavern gives back to Atlantans by pouring $1 beers when it rains or when the temperature rises above 100 degrees.
Hand in Hand is not exactly a hot spot for Atlanta's PBR clientele. However, to the delight of yuppies and hipsters alike, this frat-happy neighborhood bar unloads $1 PBR on Sundays. Everyone wins.
Not every all-you-can-eat sushi deal is created equal. At Room, however, you can enjoy quality sushi every Wednesday night from 5:30pm to 7:30pm for just $10. Sweeten the deal by washing it down with a bottomless glass of sake for $5.
Cheap drinking gets even cheaper on Monday nights at DBA Barbecue when pitchers of Miller High Life cost $4 and pints go for a buck. Don't miss getting a basket of the cheddar corn muffins at this Virginia Highland staple.
Two words: bottomless mimosas. On Saturdays and Sundays during brunch, a mere $10 gets you as much of this fizzy beverage as you can handle. It should be noted that this quaint eatery in Inman Park also does one of the best brunches in the city.
It's hard to imagine one the most upscale Italian restaurants in Atlanta offering anything past the appetizer menu for less than $10. But Virginia Highland mainstay La Tavola pleases patrons of all tax brackets with Molto Mondays, when $10 gets you a bowl of specialty pasta.
