Tim Herlihy ends his Irish wanderlust of the United States Irish pub scene with a march in the NYC St. Patrick’s Day Parade and a full recovery afterwards at the infamous Dead Rabbit Grocery and Grog. Named after a vicious and notorious Irish-American street gang from the days of yore, the place today embodies the conviviality of Old New York and the Irish-American tradition.
Their world class secret is that they serve up 72 historically-accurate cocktails dreamed up by the nineteenth century’s most celebrated bartenders.
The Dead Rabbit is dedicated to advancing the art and practice of hospitality, as it was understood then and as it is understood now, for all residents of and visitors to this great metropolis.
The entire history of the place and its cast of colorful characters from the Victorian age, are available at their website deadrabbitnyc.com
They are located at the foot of Manhattan Island at 30 Water St.
With the task now completed, Tim and Tullamore DEW can relax and enjoy how the country will be enjoying them on St. Patrick's Day.
American Bars salutes you, Tim.
