Best Way to Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day – in a NYC Limo

March 3, 2010

St. Patrick’s Day in New York City is unlike any other city, New Yorkers know how to party. Five Towns Limo offers the best transportation and chauffeur service (they may even dress up as a leprechaun for you) with their limo party bus in New York, Long Island, or New Jersey for this very green event.

Check out one of the rowdiest St. Patrick’s Day parades on the East Coast, best Irish pubs, Irish restaurants, and more. We can even fill your stretch limo with green, yellow and white balloons for free. You bring the beer and we’ll provide a safe ride wherever you want to go! Reserve your NYC limo today for the best St. Patrick’s Day ever!

We have several suggestions about where to wear your green this St. Patty’s Day, but here are a couple to get you started:

> Smith’s Bar and Restaurant – will serve you a hardy breakfast complete with green eggs, greasy bacon or sausage and coffee. You’ll need all those carbs in the morning, so you can relish in the day’s activities. Expect your NYC limo to arrive early, so you won’t have to wait in line for this breakfast.

> McFadden’s – One of the best national chains to really get in the “spirit” of this annual green holiday, even if you’re not Irish. The pub opens at 10 am, so you can get your morning “coffee” early and still have time to visit other local Irish spots throughout the day.

Now that you’ve had your breakfast and morning “coffee” it’s time to get a front row seat or better yet, join in the festivities of New York’s best St. Patrick’s Day parade, which starts at 11 am. With your NYC limo, you’ll be doing much more than just sightseeing because this is a parade where everyone can join the more than 150,000 marchers. We can drop you off at the start of the parade and we’ll meet you at the end , if you can make it; otherwise, just give your chauffeur a call and they will pick you up somewhere in between.

New York City’s St. Patrick’s Day parade is one of the oldest in the country; the first parade was in 1766 with Irish soldiers who were serving the American colonies. NYC St. Patrick’s Day parade is the only one that that doesn’t allow floats, autos or exhibits.

After the parade, which ends sometime around 3 pm, your chauffeur will drive you and your friends to a well-known Irish restaurant for lunch and good grub such as the Ear Inn, which is probably the oldest Irish pub in New York City. They will be serving up the best grub and beer all day. Other well-known Irish eateries are DonnyBrook on the Lower East Side, The Dubliner located in the Financial District, and the Dublin 6 in West Village. Be sure to ask your chauffeur his favorite Irish pubs as well.

We look forward to celebrating with you on St. Patrick’s Day in New York City, New Jersey or Long Island. Call Five Towns Limo to make your reservations for a NYC limo today 516-374.2545
