Arise & Go

Enjoy the sounds of Arise & Go, an exciting Celtic trio that finds its roots in the dance music of Ireland, Scotland and Atlantic Canada. Blending pipes, whistles, fiddle and guitar, the group's varied musical backgrounds combine to produce a sound which is both grounded in tradition and uniquely fresh and driving.

New York Bagel Café & Deli
You have to lay the base for a festive day of fun so don't skip out on an Irish-inspired breakfast. Stop by New York Bagel Café & Deli for a freshly baked bagel with a schmear of green cream cheese. Couple that with their Peppermint Paddy Latté topped with whipped cream and green drizzle for a well-balanced breakfast.

Coffee Mania

Put a little luck of Irish in your morning coffee at Coffee Mania where they’ll be combining marshmallow, Irish cream, and white chocolate flavors for their Luck of the Irish Latté. Toss some whipped cream and a handful of lucky charm marshmallows on top and you can consider yourself one lucky leprechaun!

The Deli Downtown

If the midday munchies have taken over after a few green beers, hop over to The Deli Downtown for a made-for-dipping St. Patrick’s Day appetizer - a classic Rueben Dip. The ooey gooey dip is the perfect combination of Swiss cheese, corned beef and sauerkraut all smothered in Russian dressing. You can buy a half pan size for $35, or an individual helping for $4.99 if you don’t want to share.

BRIX Pubaria

Your one-stop shop for all things Irish is BRIX Pubaria. Their St. Patrick’s Day menu puts a modern twist on Irish favorites, highlighted by the Rueben Egg-Rolls, Reuben Pizza and the OG Rueben Hand Held stacked between Marple Rye. Craving a magically delicious brunch Sunday morning? Savor a mouthful of Lucky Charm Pancakes or a bowl of Lucky Charms in milk and Bailey's Irish Cream. Drink specials to accompany all the Irish fare will include $3 pints of green beer and $5 pints of Guinness on Saturday and Sunday. Don't forget about the Luck-o-Rita - a whiskey margarita garnished with, you guessed it, Lucky Charms.
