The lines started early to get into South Boston bars Friday night, with more celebration expected for the rest of St. Patrick's Day weekend.
At Fresh Boston, the holiday weekend is a good way to get their name out.
"We're a deli, restaurant, a liquor store, a bar," said owner Charlie Merritt."We kind of got it all." Fresh Boston just opened up in November and hopes all the foot traffic could be just the lucky charm the business needs to win over new customers.St. Patrick's Day is considered an unofficial end to winter by some.
"You can't ask for anything better, especially with spring coming around," said Chris Jones."We're finally coming out of the winter, this is really when the city of Boston starts to find their place."
