St. Patrick’s Day is this weekend and shenanigans are on the schedule. Snow or sunshine, there will be green beer to be drunk, corned beef and cabbage to be devoured, and plenty of holiday tomfoolery to be had. Whether you’re looking for a quiet place to enjoy a pint or the rowdiest Irish pub in town, here are some options for St. Patty’s Day fun in and around the Mile High ☘️

Where to Eat and Drink

Scruffy Murphy’s

(Five Points)

With rustic furnishings, traditional pub snacks, and Irish beers on tap, Scruffy Murphy’s offers a perfect lowkey slice of Ireland in the Mile High.

Nallen’s (Union Station)

Family-owned for three decades, Nallen’s Irish Pub is a no-frills, hidden-gem, dive bar for anyone in search of good company and a mean pint of Guinness.

Clancy’s (Wheat Ridge)

Clancy’s boasts the title of oldest and longest-running Irish bar in Colorado, and hosts one of biggest weekend-long St. Patty’s Day parties in Metro Denver to match the reputation.

This South Broadway staple is a prime pick for cozy pub vibes and dynamite weekly food specials.
