Den ShanyginNovember 13, 2015Great pub with special atmosphere. Tasty beer with excellent prices. Also they've got "discount" hours. Don't miss them.)
Like A Local GuideApril 3, 2014First pub in Riga, and a legendary meeting place. They serve 20 different draught beers and ciders plus grilled food, Irish and even Indian cuisine. It's also THE place for watching sports on TV. Read more
Dmitriy UsmanovDecember 26, 2015Everything is great, beautiful and awesome, food is decent, beer is tasty, only potato-pancakes were burned, but ok
Guinness is good 4 you! Many people are think that stout is strong but it's not true! Guinness content only 4,2 alc % by volume which is less than regular lager type beers. Enjoy!
Nice terrace in the garden, great beer, tasty food, cozy chairs upstairs. Prices are a bit higher than in other Riga pubs though.
Maria AndersonJuly 15, 2012Definitely best pub in Riga!Good menu with beer from all over the world, great music and polite waiters. Don't forget to try Belgian Krick ;-)- ★ Great salmon steak with slightly grilled veges and indian rice served at summer patio rear of the pub ★
- Here in backyard of the pub is fantastic sunny summer terrace with NO street dust and noise! Outstanding!
Maybe the only place in Riga with real Guinness. Also offers awesome lemonades and ginger drinks.
1backpackJanuary 23, 2013Great staff who speak English great, beer is cold and priced good. 2 levels , free wifi , also serve great food too- On the top of usual stuff here you can find a few really rare whisk(e)y's 4 slow sipping!
- According to the cheapflights.co.uk "One of the Top 10 oldest Irish pubs outside IRL". I agree and affirm!

Alvils MalinovskisApril 10, 2018Tasty food for a good price - especially business launch offer. On the downside- it’s pretty crowded, so the service isn’t at it’s best.- Chicken Curry with Yellow Rice mixed w/weges & prawns Rock's!
- ★ Live music on the open air stage at the backyard summer garden ★
It's a tradition rather than a pub. Does the pub job well, too, though. Has an inner yard, shows all the football you could want.
Artem AnanievJune 30, 2013Good beer, good meals, old-school interior :) Consider trying a steak here
In Your PocketFebruary 22, 2011Although it's considered a traditional Irish pub it's also a sports bar dedicated to the finer things in life – namely football and Formula One. Read more
LiveRigaJune 27, 2011Paddy Whelan’s, a true home away from home, is the oldest Irish pub in the Baltics and one of the best in the world.
Travel Out ThereMarch 3, 2011Every city has an Irish bar and Riga is no exception - most people will say try the Guinness, we say try the Baby Guinness it has a bit more kick!
VadimDecember 16, 2017Atmosphere is nice. Food and drinks didn’t impress. Meat and naan feels definitely yesterday’s or even older. Don’t recommend.- Selection of beer on tap at 2nd floor bar & lounge. April 18th 2013.
