Where to Celebrate St. Patrick's Day in Harford County

HARFORD COUNTY, MD--One day a year, people across the country put on their brightest greens and biggest “Kiss Me I’m Irish” pins because on St. Patrick’s day, everyone’s Irish.

If avoiding a drunken crowd, and drunken drivers, is more your style, don’t pass up the opportunity to bring back a little tradition by cooking a delicious corned beef dinner at home. Not only is the part of Irish-American culture, it is a staple for the “Feast of Saint Patrick” in the United States.

Even if you do stay home, St. Paddy’s would not be complete without a sip of something green. No, you don’t have to set up a keg in your kitchen. Keep your holiday classy with a refreshing Jameson Julep. The short and sweet prep time will leave you with plenty of time to enjoy your drink while the corned beef cooks.

For everyone else looking for a raucous night in Harford County, we asked Patch Readers where to go for the best St. Paddy’s party. Here’s where your neighbors will be tossing down green beer:

• "Downtown VFW lots of nice people & great food"
• "Coakley's Pub of course!"
  
• "Home is my choice but if I had to go out then Grumpys would be the place."

• "MacGregor's Restaurant!!"
• "Green turtle or the bourbon market"
• "Rodger's House Tavern"
• "Trick question, Looneys. Lol."
• "Citizen nursing home lots of recycled teenagers with lots of wisdom. Visit them"
