Guests can sample a wide variety of foods at the Irish Festival, from Celtic to more traditionally American foods. Some of the Celtic food to try includes scones, bridies and lamb stew as well as the traditional fish and chip meal. Many finer restaurants and caterers participate in the Festival offering special items such as salmon and crab cakes. Some other festival favorites include, ice cream, hot dogs, fries, cotton candy and burgers.

The Daughters of Erin will also bring their Irish Tea house back to the Festival this year so that guests can try out home-made Irish baked goods with some hot or cold tea.
