St. Patty’s Day pub hopping guide

I thought it’d be fun to write up a guide to places to go if you’re going pub hopping on St. Patrick’s Day. My only criteria? Pretty loose and arbitrary; any place that I think of as primarily where you would go for a drink—not necessarily to eat. And it has to be a pub or tavern or thereabouts—not restaurant lounges, and nothing fancy. Sorry Astro Lounge, I’m lookin’ at you.

Basically, the kinds of places I think would make for a good Irish pub crawl. Any other suggestions?
