Preparing where to go for St. Patrick Day is a strategic way to avoid parade goers and very long lines. Want to find a great spot for this St. Patrick’s Day?

Paddy Reillys

Paddy’s features live music in a traditional Irish pub setting – in the heart of Midtown East Manhattan. Since 1986, we’ve fostered the spirit of live music in New York City for visitors across America and the world over. Their happy hour is 11 AM to 7 PM 7 days a week including Saints Patrick Day!

Molly’s

AILTE (pronounced falcha) means “welcome” in Gaelic. Pete and John welcome you to Molly’s, established in 1960 and the most traditional Irish bar in New York. Complete with sawdust on the floor and a log-burning fireplace. Renowned for its Shepherd’s Pie, hamburgers, and steaks, all for a reasonable price, Molly’s is a long-time favorite with locals and a destination for newcomers.

Wilfie & Nell

In the West Village Wilfie & Nell is just that bar which prides itself on serving good drinks and locally sourced food. Hangout with your friends here drinking their refreshing cold microbrews.

The 13th Step

A lively space featuring a young crowd, The 13th Step, pub grub, drink specials and plenty of games on the tube. Their happy hour is from 11:30 AM- 8:00 PM with the whole bar at 1/2 price. Celebrate the day with cheap beers, friends and good times!

The Dead Rabbit


This 2-story spot combines a lunch taproom with a parlor serving small plates & vintage cocktails. The pub is working with Bushmills on St Patricks’s day and will be offering Bushmills specials including The Dead Rabbit Irish Coffee for $7. This is one of our favorite watering holes.

Swift


Swift was established in 1995 by Danny McDonald and Mike Jewell and later joined by Anthony Malone. Swift quickly became known for their cornucopia of beer styles from here and abroad, one of the finest selections of Irish whiskey in the city, and, of course, its often-applauded for their attention to detail. They have a new take on the already classic “Van Diemens Land” re-launching every year just before St Patrick’s day. This year they will be re-launching on Friday the 16th, don’t miss out!
