The annual St. Patrick's Day parade in Montauk may have been canceled, but you can still get a taste of the holiday this weekend. The Montauk Friends of Erin's annual corned beef and cabbage feast will be a takeout lunch and dinner on Saturday from noon until closing at Shagwong Tavern. The cost for the meal is $15 and includes all the trimmings. Orders can be placed by calling 631-668-3050.

An online trivia contest and other interactive games start Friday night at 7:30 at Sag Harbor's John Jermain Memorial Library, while on Saturday, Rob Scott, a chef, will lead a two-hour cooking class at 3 p.m. on the library's Facebook page. The recipes will include Irish soda bread muffins, corned beef and cabbage prepared in a slow cooker, mint chocolate-chip brownies, and, in honor of St. Patrick's Day, a peppermint ice cream shake.

One week after an inspection of the store’s pharmacy, however, he is still awaiting New York State approval to operate it.

Slow Start at New Gosman’s

In some ways, Gosman’s Dock, one of Montauk’s few remaining family-owned and operated businesses until its October 2024 sale, closely resembles the complex of restaurants and shops long revered by locals and visitors alike. In other ways, though, it is markedly different under its new ownership.
