Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. Celebrates Irish Heritage Month at the Rambling House

Looks like our BP found my favorite Irish sports bar restaurant this side of the Atlantic. For a real Irish breakfast any time of the day ,or a juicy steak accompanied by a cool pint, this is the spot! It’s always a fun place with great atmosphere, great people and reasonable prices. The Rambling House is located in Woodlawn, which is the Irish enclave in the Bronx. Happy St. Patrick’s Day to everyone. As per next weeks celebration of Irish Heritage, the Bronx Borough President will be at the Rambling House next Wednesday. Please see the flyer below for more info.
