St. Patrick’s Day is fast approaching, and what better way to celebrate than with a legendary pub crawl treasure hunt around London’s finest Irish pubs? This isn’t your usual pint-after-pint pub crawl — it’s a fun, interactive drinking game with clues, challenges, and plenty of laughs. Ready for an unforgettable day out? Here’s how to organise your very own St. Paddy’s Day pub crawl treasure hunt! 🎉
Step 1: Gather Your Dream Team 🤜🤛
Rally your closest friends or workmates into teams of 4-6. Pick a team captain to lead the charge and keep everyone on track as you solve clues and complete challenges. A solid team makes for solid craic!
Step 2: Set Clear (But Fun!) Rules 📏
Agree on how many pubs you’ll hit, how long to linger at each spot, and how many drinks to enjoy. Throw in some bonus challenges to spice things up — think group selfies with strangers or busting out an Irish jig right in the pub! Bonus points for creativity! 🍀
Step 3: Map Out Your Route 🗺️
Plan your route to include some iconic Irish pubs in London. Top picks are:
-
The Auld Shillelagh (Stoke Newington)
-
The Toucan (Soho)
-
The Porterhouse (Covent Garden)
Do a bit of homework so you know what each pub offers and any special St. Paddy’s Day events they might be hosting.
Step 4: Craft Your Clues 🔍
Write riddles, cryptic hints, or physical challenges to lead your team from one pub to the next. For example:
"Find the pub where the Irish band plays, but first, do 10 jumping jacks to earn your way!"
Get creative — the sillier, the better!
Step 5: Let the Hunt Begin! 🏃♂️🏃♀️
Kick off at your first pub and hand over the first clue to your team captain. Solve the clue, move on to the next pub, and repeat! The treasure hunt keeps everyone engaged and the energy high throughout the day.
Step 6: Soak Up the Drinks and the Craic 🍺🎶
Enjoy the finest Irish drinks and soak in the atmosphere at every stop. St. Patrick’s Day is all about fun, laughter, and maybe making a few new friends along the way. Embrace the spirit of the day and make memories!
Step 7: Finish with a Bang! 🎤🍻
Once you’ve conquered all the pubs, celebrate by completing a final challenge at the last stop. Whether it’s singing an Irish folk song or chugging a Guinness, finish strong! Then raise a toast to a brilliant day well spent. Sláinte! 🥳
