Get your Irish Up!
Next Thursday is St Patrick's Day
Or, as they say in Ireland, St. Pádraig. - "Born in Britain in the late 4th century A.D., the man who would come to be known as St. Patrick was captured by pirates as a child and brought to Ireland. During his enslavement, he was called to Christianity and escaped his captors after six years. He returned to Ireland as a missionary, and in his teachings combined Irish pagan beliefs with Christian sacrament, devising the Celtic cross." READ MORE
First thing Thursday morning, 17 March, we will have Creamery Baked current scones. In addition we will have shamrock sugar cookies, chocolate stout cupcakes, and Peri Kelly's famous Irish soda bread for sale.
Our soda bread sells out fast so call and reserve a loaf to make sure you don't miss this delicious annual treat.
In the Deli all day - Corned Beef Sandwiches or Reubens $1 OFF
