O'Malley's Irish Pub in Shanghai, Shanghai, China | Pub
Tao Jiang Road , just off Hengshan Road, is where you'll find O'Malley's, discretely located in the heart of the beautiful old French Concession area in Shanghai. This double-story Pub is the first traditional Irish Pub in Asia and even today still sells the most Guinness in China. Our Pub caters to all tastes and requirements. So, whether it be live music, live sports, a beer garden, darts, a game of pool or a traditional fireplace you ’ re looking for, you ’ ll find it in O’Malley's.
The Pub was originally built as a family dwelling at the end of the 1800's by a wealthy Shanghainese family and remained as such until liberation in 1949 when the property was handed over to the local Education Department.
For the next 40 years, the house & gardens were used as a junior boarding school and it was in the mid-1990's, after the school had been abandoned, that Rob Young, Publican, prankster & entrepreneur of note, stumbled apon the property & decided to build the best Irish Pub in China. The rest, as they say, is history.
