Crawl for the Courts @ Various
Nov 5 @ 3:00 PM – 8:00 PM

On Saturday, November 5, 2022, from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m., the local Falls Church restaurant community is coming together to host a Crawl for The Courts to benefit the employees of Irelands Four Courts. To participate, one will need to buy a voucher. The vouchers for the restaurant crawl will be available for purchase at each participating restaurant, on the day of the event. The cost is $100 per person and 100 percent of the proceeds raised will be presented to Irelands Four Courts, https://www.irelandsfourcourts.com/.  The patrons who come out to support this community effort will show their voucher to enjoy a bite and a drink special at each of the six participating restaurants.

On August 12, 2022, a car left the roadway and drove into Ireland’s Four Courts, the popular Irish pub in Arlington, Virginia, resulting in 15 people being injured from the fiery crash, including staff members of the restaurant. The accident created a destructive fire, closing the pub. Clare and Don’s Beach Shack and Ireland’s Four Provinces are organizing this Falls Church effort to support the staff of Irelands Four Courts.
