Your luck hasn’t run out yet — in fact, it’s only just begun! That’s because St. Patrick’s Day is around the corner, and with it comes three specialty dishes available exclusively at Pat O’Brien’s in Universal CityWalk from 3 p.m. to midnight on Tuesday, March 17, 2026.
St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated annually on March 17 in honor of the patron saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick. If you’re looking for ways to celebrate, places to eat favored Irish fare, an excuse to wear green, or all three, then you’re in the right place!
Steamy Guinness Beef Stew
Fill your heart and stomach with a toasty bread bowl of Guinness Beef Stew this St. Patrick’s Day. With extra emphasis on the bread, this stew is filled with savory gold potatoes, fresh carrots and peas, and garnished with herbs de Provence. Did I mention it’s served in a mouthwatering sourdough bread bowl? I know I did, but I need everyone to know how much I love a bread bowl and how much you should too!
Classic Fish & Chips
Fish & Chips is a culinary staple in Northern Ireland, so it’s only right we serve it up for St. Patrick’s Day at Pat O’Brien’s. Savor fresh cod fried in Cajun beer batter and served with sides of sweet and sour coleslaw and tartar sauce. It’s simple, effective, and utterly delicious!
Hearty Corned Beef Platter
You’re in for more luck of the Irish with a traditional Corned Beef Platter at Pat O’Brien’s. The taste of smoked corned beef brisket, cabbage, boiled potatoes, roasted carrots with a side of dill crème fraîche is enough to make you wish every day was St. Patrick’s Day.
You know what would make these three dishes taste even better? A tall glass of bubbling green beer. Get it while it’s brewing — along with all three of these deliciously themed dishes — exclusively on St. Patrick’s Day at Pat O’Brien’s.
St. Patrick’s Day Entertainment
Food alone is more than enough to get me excited about any occasion, but I also fancy a little entertainment with a side of my St. Patrick’s Day cuisine. Good thing there’s plenty of that to go around at Pat O’Brien’s!
In addition to enjoying these three holiday-themed delights, you can also spend the day vibing out to a variety of live entertainment at the venue from 3 p.m. to midnight. From live DJs and stilt walkers on the patio and promenade to piano players, guitarists, and a live band outside the restaurant, you’re in for an eventful St. Patrick’s Day at Pat O’Brien’s!
BONUS: Lepre-Crème Loot at Voodoo Doughnut
I may talk a lot about luck and how St. Patrick’s Day is prime time to be full of it, but I don’t do so in jest! I’ve saved the best surprise for last: an extra sweet St. Paddy’s Day-themed treat at Voodoo Doughnut. Your luck leads you to the end of the rainbow to find a pot — or rather, a shell — of Lepre-Crème Loot. Taste a fluffy yeast doughnut shell dressed in a chocolate Irish cream velvet top with whiskey-infused icing. Topped with sugar sprinkles and a gold chocolate coin, this doughnut is a treasure of its own, and it’s yours to enjoy exclusively on St. Patrick’s Day!
