As of press time, there is no public information on a St. Patrick\u2019s Day celebration.

The patrons are free to choose from a selection of beer, cocktails and wine while playing pool or darts \u2014 the atmosphere is reminiscent of a cozy dive bar. Don\u2019t miss your chance to make your next St. Patrick\u2019s Day crawl to a South Queens cornerstone whose mantra is, \u201cThere are no strangers here; only friends you haven\u2019t yet met.\u201d<\/p>\n
