If your plan was to track down “corned beef and cabbage near me” or a “boiled dinner special near me,” you’ve found it.

2. The Boiled Dinner Is Back—What You’ll Get

Here’s what lands in front of you when you order our Boiled Dinner: House cured “gray” corned beef, mustard pickles, horseradish cream, cabbage, potatoes & five other veggies.

Let’s break that down:

  • House cured “gray” corned beef: We cure our beef in-house the New England way, which keeps the meat tender and naturally colored. “Gray” simply means it isn’t dyed that bright pink-red you see elsewhere. The flavor is deep and clean, with warm spice from the brine and a soft, fall-apart bite.
  • Mustard pickles: Briny and a little sweet, they add snap and tang to the plate. A forkful with corned beef balances out the richness in every bite.
  • Horseradish cream: Smooth, cool, and zippy. A small dollop wakes up the meat and vegetables without overpowering them.
  • Cabbage, potatoes & five other veggies: Classic boiled dinner vegetables done right—tender but not mushy, seasoned, and ready to soak up juices. Expect a colorful spread that brings sweetness, earthiness, and plenty of comfort.

The best part for planners and bargain hunters: this year it’s just $24. Yes, the whole plate is hearty and priced so you can treat a friend or bring the crew. If you’re looking for the exact note to remember, it’s $24 for this year’s dinner.

3. Limited-Time Only—Through St. Patrick’s Day or Until Sold Out

This is a short run, and it goes fast. Available through St. Patrick's Day (or until we're sold out). We make a limited amount because we want the curing, the slow cooking, and the vegetables to be at their peak every day of the promotion. Once the final batch is gone, that’s it until next year.

If you’ve been meaning to try it, don’t wait for the last-minute rush. People start planning early for “St. Patrick's Day restaurant specials near me,” and tables disappear quickly as the holiday approaches. If you’re the one organizing your group, nudge everyone now and get your picks on time and date. You’ll skip the scramble and settle in for a relaxed plate of comfort.

4. Why Diners Love This Tradition

There’s a reason this dish sticks with people. The first forkful explains it: warm, savory beef that shreds just enough, cabbage that still has a little bite, and a pile of vegetables that taste like they’ve been waiting for March all year. The edges of the plate are where the fun happens—mustard pickles for crunch and vinegar, a touch of horseradish cream for heat and creaminess. Every bite changes a little, so the last taste is as good as the first.

It also fits the day. St. Patrick’s Day is about gathering. Boiled Dinner is built for that. It’s not fussy, it arrives steaming, and it gives you time to talk. You don’t have to explain it to your table; it makes sense as soon as it shows up. If your group splits their time between seafood, comfort plates, and something seasonal, this bridges the gap. Add a round of toasts and you’ve got your holiday set.

Guests tell us they come back for the balance. The beef is rich, but not heavy. The vegetables are simple, but not bland. The condiments are bold, but not over the top. If your feed has been full of friends asking for “boiled dinner special near me,” send them here and tell them to come hungry.

5. How to Reserve Your Table Today

Getting in is easy, and reserving ahead will make your life easier as the holiday nears. Here’s how to lock it in:

  • Book early. Pick the date and time that works best for your group. If you’re planning to come right on the holiday or with a bigger party, earlier is better.
  • Note your plans. When you book, add a note that you’re coming for the Boiled Dinner. It helps us plan and keeps your table focused on what brought you in.
  • Be flexible with timing if you can. Late lunch or early dinner can open up more options during the busiest days.
  • Check again if you don’t see your perfect slot. Tables open as plans change, especially in the final days before St. Patrick’s Day.
  • Walk-ins are subject to availability, but this seasonal plate tends to sell out. Reservations are the safest bet if the Boiled Dinner is your goal.

If you’re typing “Summer Shack St. Patrick's Day reservation” into your browser, you’re on the right path. Grab a time that fits your crew and mark one thing off your holiday list. And yes, RESERVE YOUR TABLE TODAY.

One last reminder for planners and anyone craving tradition on a plate: this dish is a limited-time special. When it’s gone, it’s gone. If the plan is “corned beef and cabbage near me” with a plate that tastes like the real thing, don’t push it to the last minute.
