St. Pat's Hot Lunch - Currently Suspended
Due to the ongoing precautions being taken at St. Patrick with Covid-19 we have chosen to suspend our hot lunch program.
This currently effects March 20th lunch of East Side Mario. This lunch will not be delivered. Over the next few days you should notice a reimbursement on your account.
The current order form for April has been shut down. At this time it is unclear when or if we will be able to continue the program for the remainder of the year.
