This month's location
Beef O' Brady's
About our host:
In 1985, Jim Mellody dreamed up the idea of a family friendly restaurant, a neighborhood pub where friends and families could gather to enjoy good food and sports in a fun, comfortable atmosphere. Together, with his wife Jeanette, they embellished the Brady family name and created the now-famous Beef 'O' Brady's®. Their first sports bar and grill opened in Brandon, Florida. The regulars quickly nicknamed it "Beef's®." Inspired by a love of sports, Jim filled his restaurant with TVs and satellite dishes so patrons could enjoy watching a vast array of sporting events. He also covered the walls with authentic sports memorabilia he had collected through the years.As a final touch, he made sure a traditional Irish Blessing graced every menu, bidding good fortune and happy times to all who visited. As the Beef's® story grew, so too did the menu. It was important to Jim that guests have variety (like the award-winning wings available in 12 signature sauces) as well as signature favorites with an Irish twist. Today, Beef 'O' Brady's® is one of the fastest growing kid friendly restaurants in the country. Some call it the "Luck of the Irish." Jim would call it a darn good dream that took a lot of hard work.
This month's Happy Hour is sponsored by our Ambassador
Megan Wade!
Megan Wade was born in the Mile High City but spent most of her childhood in Palm Harbor, FL. She moved to Tampa to attend the University of South Florida and majored in Political Science with a minor in Criminology. She aspired to become a prosecutor for child-related crimes, and upon graduation Megan was offered a job as a Paralegal at a South Tampa law firm. She decided to get her feet wet in the legal field before committing to law school.
Through her legal work, she was first introduced to the Guardian ad Litem program and fell in love with the impact that the program was having on the children in her community. Beginning as a volunteer, Megan decided to forgo a law degree and instead was hired by the Guardian ad Litem program in 2015 as a Child Advocate Manager (Volunteer Supervisor). She was then promoted to Community Outreach Coordinator after her wedding last May.
Megan is also involved with the South Tampa Chamber of Commerce, Emerging Leaders of Tampa Bay, and Toastmasters. She also teaches yoga and attends USF for graduate work in non-profit management. Megan lives in Port Tampa with her husband, Dano.
