Local Pub All Set For Busiest Day Of The Year

It's St. Patrick's Day, and Paddy Flaherty's Irish Pub is all set for their busiest day of the year.

The Seaway Rd. pub is expecting to reach full capacity of 200 people on Friday. People usually start lining up before the 11am opening.

Owner Scott Dargie expects to go through a lot of beer.

He says 35 kegs were delivered on Tuesday. They expect to go through most of that during the course of the week, including about nine kegs of Guinness on Friday.

Dargie says the day's feature meal is corn beef and cabbage.

He says they have a shuttle service known as the "Paddy Wagon." Those interested can call 519-328-0078.
