5 ways to ring in the 4th July in Dublin

Katy Thornton

There may be no firework displays, but there’s lots of nice food to having.

Let’s be real for a moment. Tuesdays are the worst day of the week. That Monday motivation has all but completely disappeared, yet you haven’t made it to the sweet hill of hump day before the quick descent into weekend plans. One day has to be the worst, and undoubtedly it is Tuesday.

However, this Tuesday happens to be 4th July, and whether you’re an American in Dublin looking to celebrate, or are just looking for a reason to have some good food and go for a post-work tipple, we have some spots ringing in the American holiday in shtyle.

Firebyrd

Location: Ranelagh

For the week that’s in it, American Hot Chicken Restaurant Firebyrd have a deal of wings, fries, and a drink (either soda or a bottle of beer) for €15 for those looking to dine-in. The deal kicks off on July 3rd and runs until the 10th for anyone interested.

Eddie Rockets

Multiple Locations

There’s no shortage of American themed restaurants in Dublin, so an easy way to celebrate 4th July is to simply dine at one of these spots, but our top choice has to be Eddie Rockets. For that American diner experience, there’s nowhere better in the country in our opinion.

Get yourself a burger, some onion rings, maybe a shake, and you’re sorted.
