Takeout Tuesday: Local Irish pub promises authentic St. Patrick's Day experience and last updated 2021-03-16 09:11:54-04 NORFOLK, Va. - "Where every day is St. Patrick's Day." That may be the slogan at Grace O'Malley's Irish Pub & Restaurant, but the actual Irish holiday has always been one to remember for owner Christy Marron. March 17, 2020 was no different, when, in the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, an order from Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's office came down prohibiting gatherings of more than ten people. "About 7 o'clock that evening on St. Patrick's Day we had about 90 people in here and we had to shut down," recalled Marron. "We told [customers] that certainly we'll see you in a year for a full St. Patrick's Day. We're not a full St. Patrick's Day yet but certainly we're going to celebrate as fully as we can."
