The event will be Friday, March 15 with doors open at 6:30 for the 7 p.m.. event
“When I am not in Ireland, I love bringing Ireland to Atlantic Highlands,” laughed owner Kathleen Sweeney, a native of Ireland who gained her American citizenship five years after moving here decades ago and has retained all her Irish charm ever since.
Sweeney, who has hosted numerous Irish events both at The Shore Casino and her former restaurant, the Casino in the Park in Jersey City, said popular attention and requests to continue the long time celebration of St. Patrick’s Day has convinced her the Irish celebration is the main event of the month for the popular restaurant, located in the municipal harbor in Atlantic Highlands.
The popular Kevin and the Round the House Band have appeared here many times in the past, she said, and once again the evening’s program will also feature Daly’s Irish Step Dancers, talented young dancers adept at the intricate and swift moving steps of old-fashioned Irish music. Guerin, who is the band leader for the Round the House Band, also plays the guitar and tin whistle.
As always, the Irish buffet will include corned beef and cabbage, scones and clotted cream and other Irish and American favorites requested for the sumptuous buffet table.
Tickets for the event, which includes the Buffet, entertainment and cash bar, are $65 each, and reservations are available on line as well as at the door, space permitting.
“You don’t have to be Irish to enjoy a St. Patrick’s celebration,” Sweeney laughed, “we just love to bring laughter, happiness and a good time to everyone.”
