No shows and less than 48 hours notice of non-attendance will be noted. 2 or more such occurrences will unfortunately lead to removal from the group.

🍀🥂 **ST. PATRICK’S DAY WEEKEND BRUNCH** 🥂🍀 Green Vibes, Irish History & A Proper Pub Gathering Yes, St. Patrick’s Day falls on a Tuesday this year… But who honestly wants to party on a Tuesday unless it involves a movie night? So we’re doing this properly — weekend style. Join us for a festive St. Patrick’s Day brunch celebration at **Stout Irish Pub!,** right in Toronto’s Cabbage Town. Expect warm wood interiors, classic Irish pub energy, hearty brunch plates, and yes… possibly something green in your glass. 🍻 But this isn’t just about beer and brunch. St. Patrick’s Day holds real historical weight in Toronto. When Irish immigrants first arrived in Canada, many faced discrimination and hardship. Over time, the Irish community played a profound role in shaping the city — from infrastructure to politics to culture. In fact, some of the earliest large-scale St. Patrick’s Day celebrations began in North America before the holiday became as widely celebrated in Ireland itself. So this weekend, we’re raising a glass not just for fun — but for legacy. And also… for brunch. 👉 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) *** 🥓 The Plan We’ll gather outside the pub, head in together, and settle in for a relaxed, social afternoon of food and conversation. Menu: Click Here! Cost of meal: $$ (pay restaurant directly) Think: 🍳 Irish breakfast plates 🥞 Brunch classics 🥪 Pub favourites 🍺 Guinness, cider, and festive drinks Come hungry. Leave cheerful. *** 🧢 How to Find Me ⏰ Meetup Time: 1:00 PM ❗ I will only wait 5 minutes outside I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat by the front entrance. PLEASE DO NOT GO IN WITHOUT ME. And please do not call the restaurant — they won’t have information about this event. If you have questions, message Mathew directly. *** 💰 Meetup Fee $5 cash in person or e-transfer to: 📧 mathewmaclean@hotmail.com If you’ve never attended one of my events before, you must send your e-transfer as soon as you sign up to confirm your spot. Those who don’t will be removed from the event. This helps ensure committed attendance and supports the group so we can continue hosting high-quality gatherings. Thank you for respecting that. 💛 *** 🌈 Who Is This For? This group is open to anyone who wants to be social and make friends — whether single or not. We also host: 🎬 Movies 🚶 Walks & hikes 🎭 Arts & culture 🍽️ Restaurant outings There’s always something happening. *** ⚠️ A Gentle Reminder Sometimes circumstances change and events may need to be canceled — please keep an eye on updates. *** 👤 Organizer: Mathew Questions? Post on the event wall or email 📧 torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com Come for the Irish brunch. Stay for the laughter. Leave feeling just a little bit luckier. Because the best way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in Toronto? With history, heart… and a table full of new friends. 🍀✨
