If you’re anything like me, St. Patrick’s Day is one of your favorite days to celebrate. Getting decked out in green, celebrating the beginning of some warmer weather, and enjoying great drinks and delicious food themed around the holiday.
So of course, finding some fun places to celebrate the holiday with themed drinks and food is always at the top of my to-do list. Lucky for all of us, Overland Park has some fun and unique spots to celebrate the St. Patrick’s Day weekend.
