Residents of One Manhattan Square: This March, your neighborhood haunt and hearth, The Dead Rabbit, invites you to revel in the Feast of St. Patrick. More than just a party, it’s a weeklong spectacle that builds to a full-throttle crescendo on the 17th. The holiday honors the passing of the venerated patron saint of Ireland, who, as legend has it, sent the snakes slithering into the sea. Expect craic (roughly, a fun or good time) that turns your visit into a tale worth telling.
Join in raising a glass to Irish tradition, where every sip is a nod to a history of rebellion, resilience, and an unyielding Celtic spirit. Whether you’re Irish by blood or simply by inclination, The Dead Rabbit welcomes you to a celebration brimming with warmth, camaraderie, and revelry that knows no borders.
Recognized as one of the world’s finest bars, The Dead Rabbit burns with the anam (soul) of Irish hospitality — where every pour tells a story, and every toast honors the fighters and the dreamers. And remember: It’s Paddy’s, not Patty’s. Mix them up, and you might just find yourself handed an Urban Dictionary instead of a drink.
Built on the bones of the Lower East Side’s gritty past — its blood, sweat, and tears — the five-story townhouse at 30 Water Street has witnessed nearly two centuries of New York history. Erected in 1828, it has seen the rise and fall of empires, the chaos of Five Points, and the ever-evolving pulse of Lower Manhattan. Some places fade into history. Others refuse to go quietly.
Enter The Dead Rabbit, which staked its claim here in 2013. Founders Sean Muldoon and Jack McGarry — Belfast boys who know a thing or two about a proper pub — crafted more than a watering hole; they built a sanctuary of Irish defiance, named after one of New York’s most notorious gangs. In a city where survival is an art, the Rabbit didn’t just open its doors — it threw them wide with a swagger, rekindling the past with the spirit of old New York.
Step inside, and you’re swept into an intoxicating blend of vintage character and modern flair. Here, artifacts whisper of 19th century New York, mingling effortlessly with contemporary design. Every cocktail — whether it’s the famed Irish Coffee or a reimagined classic — pays tribute to tradition, innovation, and the art of a good drink.
As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, the Rabbit calls on revelers — and One Manhattan Square residents — to party like rebels. Here’s what’s in store for participants: Bodhrán-beating music, eccentric guest appearances, sharp-witted comedians, delectable fare, and libations flowing as freely as the banter. Guinness and Irish whiskey? Abair amach! (Say no more!)
But fair warning — there are no reservations from March 13 to 17. It’s strictly walk-ins only. In other words, get there early and prepare for a night where time is measured in rounds, not minutes.
This St. Paddy’s Day, tap into the spirit of old New York and the fierce soul of Ireland — join the revelry at The Dead Rabbit, where every toast honors history, hospitality, and a hint of mischief. And as you raise a glass to tradition, why not raise the bar on your living experience?
