Our Story
A little corner of Ireland in Laos
Gary O'Donoghue left Kerry, Ireland with a simple idea: bring the warmth of a proper Irish pub somewhere truly unexpected. He landed in Vang Vieng, and in 2008, Gary's Irish Bar opened its doors.
Fifteen-plus years on, the place has become a landmark. Part of that is the draught Guinness — kegs flown directly from Dublin. Part of it is the cooking, honest and hearty, the kind that makes you feel at home even when you're a long way from it.
But mostly it's the people. Gary, Katae, and the team have a way of making strangers feel like regulars from the very first round.
"There are no strangers here — only friends you haven't yet met."
