Yuletide Day 9
Tiny Tadhg has spent the past week quietly observing the Yuletide magic at Saints & Scholars. From behind whiskey bottles to a perch in the Christmas tree, and most often on the mantle by the fireplace, he’s been soaking it all in.
But something has changed—your smiles and laughter have started to bring him out of his shell. In fact, we think he’s starting to enjoy the attention!
✨Tiny Tadhg’s Mission Of Cheer!
Guests of all ages have been thrilled to find him, especially the children, who’ve discovered that this tiny poet has a generous side. This past week, the little ones lucky enough to spot him have received holiday chocolate coins — Tiny Tadhg’s way of spreading a bit of festive cheer.
A few guests have even shared photos of him on social media!
✨To spread even more cheer, Tiny Tadhg is inviting guests share photos of him and tag or mention Saints & Scholars in their social media posts (not stories, since those disappear and we may not catch them in time). If we receive enough mentions, everyone who participates will be entered into a raffle for a grand prize to be revealed on Christmas Day!
Every photo shared helps Tiny Tadhg spread even more Yuletide magic, and he promises the grand prize will be worth the extra effort.
🎄Make sure to tag us so we can see your post and include you in the raffle! 🍀
🎄Tadhg’s Yuletide Favorites So Far!
While still shy, Tadhg seems to be falling in love with the spirit of the season at the pub. He’s been especially enchanted by the cocoa cart (it seems he’s developed quite a fondness for those snowman marshmallows…☃️) and has admired the Wall of Cheers, watching guests spread kindness by gifting future drinks.
In fact, he’s asked for your help in keeping the WALL OF CHEERS full of JOY this week:
To share some cheer is my only plea,
A gift for friends, a token from me.
Fill the Wall with joy and fun,
And you’ll see the magic has just begun!
How the Wall of Cheers Works 🍀
Joining in is easy!
Simply let your server know you’d like to gift a drink to someone special.
You’ll receive a festive holiday card to fill out as their “coupon” (which never expires!).
Add a thoughtful note, include the drink you’ve gifted, and decide if you’d like to sign your name or stay anonymous as a “Secret Santa.”
The recipient’s name will be displayed on our virtual Wall of Cheers. When they visit, they’ll receive the handwritten card you created just for them!
A Little Extra from Tiny Tadhg This Week! 🍀
For every drink you gift to the Wall of Cheers this week (in addition to the generous 50% off your current drink), Tiny Tadhg has prepared special treat bags for each gifter—or “Secret Santa.” Inside, you’ll find festive treats, and a lucky few might discover an extra surprise like a coupon, freebie, or added Yuletide cheer!
And remember: The drinks you gift don’t have to contain alcohol. You can share a cozy tableside cocoa from our cocoa cart (Sundays only), a tasty hot cider, or one of our delicious sober sips. Spread the cheer in your own way, and help fill the Wall of Cheers with kindness this season! 🎄
🎄Cheers Wall Gift Bags: Available only through Sunday, December 15th.
🍀Tadhg’s Riddle of the Week
Last week, we discovered that Tiny Tadhg hails from the Fairy Glens of Connemara! 🌟 This week, he’s left us a playful clue to ponder about a famous literary figure who inspires him. Can you help us figure out who?
The air is crisp, the firelight glows,
In Yuletide cheer, his verse still shows.
‘No strangers here,’ his words declare,
A poet who sang of swans in air.
A Nobel Prize he claimed with pride,
For Ireland’s heart in words supplied.
Who is this poet close to my heart,
Whose works and spirit set him apart?
🎄Submit your answer below by midnight this Wednesday, December 11th.
✨Join the Fun!✨
Where will Tadhg go next? He’s already hinted at new pub adventures on the horizon, so keep a lookout—you never know where he might appear! This little elf is full of surprises, and his playful antics are just getting started.
Help him continue his mission to spread Yuletide cheer by participating in the fun! If you have photos of Tiny Tadhg from this past week, please share them on our Day 9 Facebook Post and let us know what you’ve been enjoying at Saints & Scholars. Let’s keep spreading the Yuletide cheer! 🎄🍀
