O'Shaughnessy's Public House

Chicago Bars Try New, Safe St. Patrick’s Day Practices | Eater Chicago

"In Ravenswood, O'Shaughnessy's Public House is trying to balance safety with a need for revenue by focusing on four holiday takeout packages featuring traditional treats like corned beef with cabbage and shepherd’s pie, along with Guinness nitro cans and branded glasses. Manager Julia Velazquez plans to allow 50 customers in the front room and 44 in the back, is taking reservations only for groups of six (the officials’ maximum), and has pushed back on patrons who insist the rules don’t apply to them — turning away a requested table for 10 because she and her staff aren’t vaccinated and she won’t put anyone at risk." - Naomi Waxman
