No St. Patrick’s Day celebration is complete without a proper pint. At White Oak Tavern, guests can enjoy $9 pints of creamy Guinness, one of the most iconic drinks associated with Irish tradition. Smooth, rich, and perfectly poured, a Guinness is the classic way to toast the holiday.

Traditional Irish Food Specials

St. Patrick’s Day is just as much about food as it is about drinks, and our kitchen will be serving a lineup of comforting dishes inspired by Irish flavors and tavern classics.

Guests can start with a bowl of Irish Seafood Chowder, a rich and hearty soup made with potato, leeks, clams, and scallops — the perfect dish for a lively March day in the city. For something to share, our Deviled Eggs with avocado, micro wasabi, and crispy leeks offer a flavorful twist on a tavern favorite.

For the main event, our Reuben Sandwich delivers a true deli classic with corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and thousand island dressing served alongside French fries. Another highlight of the menu is our crispy Fish & Chips, featuring golden fried cod with mushy peas and tartar sauce.

And for those looking for a true St. Patrick’s Day staple, our Corned Beef plate is served with braised cabbage, carrots, bliss potatoes, and English mustard — a hearty, traditional dish that captures the spirit of Irish comfort food.

To round things out, Curry Fries provide a flavorful side perfect for sharing with friends over drinks.
