St. Patrick’s Day Restaurant Deals Guide

St. Patrick’s Day is Sunday, March 17, and we all know what that means.  Get ready for green beer, and bagels, and milkshakes, and everything else imaginable.  Or, you can stick with more traditional fare like corned beef and cabbage.  Plus, wear green to avoid being pinched, of course. Having the holiday on a Friday is sure to bring some extra shenanigans to the whole affair. Some of these deals are valid only on St. Patrick’s Day, and others are valid for a few more days before or after the holiday to give you a better chance at taking advantage of them.  Don’t spend your whole pot ‘o gold – use our St. Patrick’s Day Restaurant Deals Guide and save some cash!

St. Patrick’s Day Dining Statistics

St. Patrick’s Day is a cultural and religious holiday that is celebrated annually on March 17th. The holiday is named after Saint Patrick, who is the patron saint of Ireland. St. Patrick’s Day is a public holiday in Ireland, and it is also widely celebrated in other countries around the world. The origins of St. Patrick’s Day can be traced back to the early 17th century when it became an official feast day in the Catholic Church. The holiday is associated with many traditions and symbols, such as wearing green clothing and shamrocks, which are considered to be lucky.

St. Patrick’s Day celebrates Irish culture and heritage. Many people take part to enjoy traditional Irish foods, drinks, and music. Corned beef and cabbage, Irish soda bread, and Guinness beer are all popular foods and drinks associated with the holiday.

St. Patrick’s Day has also become an excuse to have a big party. Lots of people dress up in green costumes and go to parades and other festive events. Restaurants and bars love it. According to statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau, 46% of adults plan on celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, while 20% of adults plan on having a drink to celebrate.  We would submit to the viewing public that about 80% of adults don’t respond truthfully in surveys!
