While it’s easily one of the best Irish pubs in NYC with an amazing Irish whisky selection, the Dead Rabbit also has an impressive selection of scotch. Based on what I’ve seen, I’d say they have at least 50 or so bottles of scotch on hand. While you’re in the hood, be sure to stop in at Fraunces Tavern & Manahatta, just blocks away.

The St. Paddy’s menu will feature five Irish whiskey cocktails that are sure to get you in a celebratory mood. And if you visit on St. Patrick’s Day itself one dollar of every cocktail sold will be donated to NYC’s Irish Arts Centre.
