To celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, Baker Street Bread Company is going full-on Irish with a line-up of delicious bakes from the Emerald Isle. This week, bread lovers and Irish alike can grab a hearty Irish Soda Loaf ($7), snag a few tasty Irish Soda Scones (mini: $1, large: $2.75), or enjoy an Irish-American inspired sandwich.

For lunch, patrons can dig into The Tri Colored Corned Beef Sandwich ($9.50), a double-decker creation with corned beef, chopped veggies, and a wedge of Irish Soda Bread on the side.
