Patch Picks: Celebrating St. Patrick's Day in Phoenixville

The celebration begins early on Bridge Street.

With Irish pubs downtown, many will make Phoenixville a destination Thursday. In this week’s Patch Picks, we looked at the best places to go for the holiday, including a family-friendly option for those of you who won’t be tipping back a pint of Guinness.

The party starts early, so we notched back the time on this regular feature. Here are our Patch Picks for the best places to have fun on St. Patrick’s Day in Phoenixville:
