Lucky ’76 Meal Deal, groovy new libations, traditional Irish fare and more offered Feb. 19-April 2
While it’s true that “Every Day is St. Paddy’s Day” at Bennigan’s, it’s even more true when it’s actually St. Paddy’s Day!
And as this singularly Irish holiday approaches, Bennigan’s is pulling out all the stops to make this year’s celebration one for the ages. This year, the iconic restaurant is celebrating its favorite holiday by traveling back to the groovy ’70s to commemorate its birth year with The Spirit of ’76 campaign.
As the legend goes, in 1976, our beloved Flip Bennigan ventured through Atlanta on St. Paddy’s Day seeking a place of refuge, joy and wisdom, and came across the original Bennigan’s restaurant, which was celebrating its first-ever Blarney Blast. The epic celebration was filled with Legendary food, drinks and fun. To this day, Blarney Blast is celebrated in all of Bennigan’s restaurants because of the promise that Flip made that night – to share the deep emotional connection felt during the first Blarney Blast with the world.
To this day, The Spirit of ’76 is alive and well at Bennigan’s. In a nod to ’76, Bennigan’s is celebrating St. Paddy’s Day with a Blarney Blast campaign headlined by a Legendary array of made-from-scratch, Irish-themed drinks and food, like its signature Corned Beef & Cabbage and Beer Cheese Soup.
During the month of March, participating Bennigan’s locations are offering a Lucky ’76 Meal Deal, which includes one appetizer or dessert and two entrées all for just $19.76, with the purchase of two Coca-Cola products. In addition, Bennigan’s is featuring four new ’70s centric, Irish-inspired hand-crafted cocktails that are sure to get the party started.
It just so happens that Sam Adams shares the same birthday as Bennigan’s, and what better way to commemorate two remarkable brands than to celebrate together?! So, Bennigan’s is featuring Samuel Adams’ revolutionary take on the everyday beer – Sam ’76 – during its St. Paddy’s celebration.
