Pubs open in the beautiful seaside resort town of Balbriggan. I believe the following is from one of their Facebook sites:

We are open all Easter Weekend serving our Food, Drink, Special offers and platter Menus. We have a Easter Sunday Lamb Family Special Deal and we are also open on Easter Monday. Why not order a platter while watching The Irish Grand National.

@ BS - That's as published so don't be giving out to me for the grammatical errors. There's obviously little or no correlation between basic education and business success in modern Ireland!
