In the month of March everyone is a little Irish. Here is a listing of festivals and parades that will allow you to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day starting on March 11th and end on March 17th. So don your green and get ready to party! We will keep you posted as more details are finalized for these and other events.
With the weather getting nasty who wants to drive. Grab a group of friends and meet in Palatine for this neighborhood bar crawl. All of the bars are only minutes from the train and each other. All of these bars have a casual atmosphere where everyone feels welcome. No need to eat before heading out as all 3 of these bars have food.
If you are looking for some good Irish Food, a Drink, or a great destination for your next Bar Crawl, TJ O’Brien’s is just the place for you and your friends. Their friendly staff, good food, and reasonable prices make it a Downtown Palatine favorite.
Pop’s is a great place to catch a game or catch up with friends and grab a bite to eat. Being located in downtown Palatine, across from the train station is helping Pop’s become a bar crawl favorite.
Stop in for a cold beer and stay for the food!
You don’t have to be Irish to enjoy this pub crawl. We have included five Irish pubs in five different towns. Pick where you want to stop and end, then go out and have some ‘craic.” (an Irish term for fun or good time). If you try all five we would like to hear about your favorites.
