With St. Patrick’s Day and a new seasonal menu on the horizon, Lost Whale is planning two special events to celebrate.

The Bay View cocktail bar, located at 2151 S. Kinnickinnic Ave., is bringing back its Paddy’s Pub pop-up next week, followed by a Spring Break 99-themed party for the release of its spring menu in early April.

Festivities at Lost Whale will kick off March 13, as the bar transforms into Paddy’s Pub, the infamous “worst bar in Philadelphia” from FX’s “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” The pop-up, which runs through March 17, has become an annual tradition at the bar, with last year’s event spreading across the neighborhood, as Sugar Maple and 1840 Brewing joined in on the fun.

This year, guests can look forward to new cocktails, daily events and themed specials from Pallino Burger, which will rebrand as Gugino’s for the week. The full lineup includes trivia and spirit sampling on March 13, a flip cup tournament on March 14, costume and vision board contests on March 15, Chardee MacDennis (a game featured on the show) on March 16, and Wii bowling on March 17.

Paddy Dollars will be awarded for participation in any event, and can be redeemed for raffle prizes from Hill Valley Dairy, Pallino Burger and more. Sign-ups are available online.

Menu Release Party

After soaking in the St. Patty’s fun, Lost Whale is taking a trip down memory lane with a Spring Break 99-themed menu release party.

The nostalgia-fueled event will take place April 4 through 6, featuring craft cocktails such as You Can Do It Put Arrack Into It, throwback tunes and free daily spirit samplings — including full-proof, zero-proof and THC options. Pallino Burger will again offer on-theme food specials.

The weekend-long party encourages attendees to break out their bucket hats, *NSYNC dance routines and long-winded reminiscing about Spring Breaks past—this time, with a craft cocktail in hand rather than a Bacardi Breezer.

Lost Whale is open Sunday through Thursday from 4 p.m. to midnight and Friday through Saturday from 4 p.m. to 2:30 a.m.
