The Newport Beach Police Department Traffic Unit will be conducting DUI Saturation Patrols for the St. Patricks Day Weekend, from Saturday the 16th through Sunday the 17th throughout the city of Newport Beach– so be prepared for traffic delays.
If you’re looking for Newport’s more “emerald” establishments, look no further than the very-Irish establishment “The Shamrock”, located at 2633 West Coast Hwy C, Newport Beach, CA 92663
If you want to check out a larger– and perhaps more interpretive-leprechaunish establishment, look no further than Muldoons in Fashion Island.
If you’re looking to get “into the mix”, then the answer to your Sunday Funday is, of course, Malarky’s Irish Pub, located on the Balboa Peninsula– home of a bunch of honorary-Irish establishments on the weekend– many within walking distance from Malarky’s.
But whateava yea do, doant wash dis video to len how a professional can guide you to speakin’ in an Oirish accent all weekend long: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=23&v=W2PHch4IPPQb
