Where to Celebrate St. Paddy’s Day in Omaha | CBSHOME
Downtown
The Dubliner Pub
One of the oldest Irish pubs in Omaha, The Dubliner’s website boasts, “If you can’t get to Dublin to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, there’s a little piece of Ireland nestled underground at 1205 Harney Street in the Old Market.” On Saint Patrick’s Day, they will be having amazing live Irish music and great Irish drinks on tap. Sounds like a good place to us!
O’Connor’s Irish Pub
Before you hit up the Dubliner, stop by O’Connor’s Irish Pub for some delicious Irish breakfast. Yes…breakfast. They’ll be open early on March 17th and March 11th for the Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade in the Old Market. If you find yourself there around lunch time, they have some of the best sandwiches in Omaha.
Barry O’s Tavern
Located on 10th Street in the Old Market, Barry O’s recently celebrated their 30-year anniversary. If you’re celebrating in the Old Market this year, you have to check out Barry O’s.
Midtown
Brazen Head
It hard to find a more traditional Irish pub in Omaha other than Brazen Head. Based on an old and loved pub in Dublin which was built in the year 1198 – the bar was even designed in Dublin, built in Wexford, Ireland and then shipped over to Omaha! They often have live music and always have delicious food. For Saint Paddy’s Day, they put up tents and close off the parking lot so you know you’ll have a great time at Brazen Head.
