St. Patrick's Day restaurant FAQ

What time do Irish pubs open on St. Patrick's Day?

Many Irish pubs open earlier than usual on March 17. Some open their doors at 7 AM for a ticketed Irish breakfast with live music, others at 9 to 11 AM. Opening times are set by each pub, so the times on this page come from each pub's own announcement.

Do I need a reservation for St. Patrick's Day?

At the busiest Irish pubs, reservations are often not taken on March 17 and entry is first come, first served, sometimes with a cover charge. Breakfast parties and ticketed events sell tickets in advance, often with a lower early-bird price.

When is the Toronto St. Patrick's Day parade?

The St. Patrick's Parade Society of Toronto holds the parade downtown on a Sunday in mid-March, starting at noon, and has organized it since 1988. In recent years, when March 17 fell on a weekday, the parade was held on the Sunday before.

When is the Montreal St. Patrick's Day parade?

Montreal's parade is held on a Sunday in March and runs east along De Maisonneuve Boulevard from Fort Street to Jeanne-Mance Street. It has been held since 1824, with only the 2020 and 2021 parades cancelled, and draws an estimated 250,000 to 700,000 spectators.

Is St. Patrick's Day a holiday in Canada?

It is not a statutory holiday in any province, so restaurants and pubs keep their normal schedules and weekday deals still apply unless a pub suspends them for the day.

What do pubs serve for St. Patrick's Day?

Typical St. Patrick's menus feature corned beef, Irish stew, bangers with colcannon or mash, fish and chips and soda bread, with Guinness, Irish whiskey and green beer on special. Chains such as the Firkin pubs have published a limited St. Paddy's menu at participating locations in the weeks before March 17.

Have restaurants announced St. Patrick's Day 2027 specials yet?

Not yet. As of November 13, 2026, no restaurant in the cities we cover has published a St. Patrick's Day 2027 special on its website, app or social channels. Specials are added here with their price, dates and source once a restaurant announces one.

About St. Patrick's Day

St. Patrick's Day on March 17 is the busiest day of the year for many Irish pubs in Canada. Pubs open early, some as early as 7 AM with a ticketed Irish breakfast, and run live Celtic music and step dancers into the night. It is not a statutory holiday, so when March 17 falls on a weekday the celebrations spread over the nearest weekends, when the big parades in Toronto and Montreal are held on Sundays.

Pub offers for the day are mostly themed rather than discounted: limited-time Irish menus with corned beef, bangers and colcannon or Guinness stew, Guinness and Irish whiskey features, and cover charges or wristbands for entry at the busiest rooms. Pub chains such as the Firkin group have run a St. Paddy's menu for several weeks leading up to March 17 at participating locations.

Expect lineups and few reservations on the day. Some well-known Irish pubs do not take bookings for St. Patrick's Day at all, while breakfast parties and ticketed events sell out ahead, often with an early-bird price. The regular pub and sports bar deals that land on the date, such as wing nights and drink specials, are listed below the specials.
