" The
friendly hospitality of owners Michael and Greg and their jolly
bilingual staff has made The GAEL (formally Tadg's Irish Pub) the
Lonely Planet's favorite Kyoto bar; relax and make friends, while
enjoying great food and reputedly the best pint of Guinness in
Kansai: choose from a fine selection of whiskies, bottled beers and
Japanese lagers." Kyoto Visitor's Guide (read more reviews here).
We changed our name on March 17, 2007 to "The Gael Irish
Pub"--same great pub, same great craic!
Whether you're looking for great food, great music or the best of
wines, spirits and beers, the warm wooden interior, brass fittings
and low ceiling bring traditional Ireland to the heart of Kyoto's
artistic district.
 Recharge your batteries after a long day of work or
travel with a traditionally hearty Irish meal such as Irish Lamb
Stew, healthy and delicious Beef & Guinness Stew, Fish &
Chips and Mushroom Pie. Or, if you crave something a little more
eclectic, our menu offers a range of international dishes that will
satisfy even the most discerning palate.
Boasting only the finest Irish beers and whiskeys, as well as a
wide range of the best domestic and imported beers and spirits, our
drinks menu will leave you spoiled for choice and maybe a little
flushed-of-face by the end of the night!
 Add a
little live music and sport to this already winning formula and you
have the recipe for an ideal reprieve from a hectic work or travel
schedule. We have live Irish music every Friday from 8pm and Jazz on
the second and fourth Saturday of every month, and for all you
sports fans we show all international sporting events across six
screens.
Wherever you're from, whatever your interests and whether you're
visiting with friends, family or colleagues, The GAEL guarantees an
oasis of familiarity with friendly staff, excellent fare and an
atmosphere not to be equalled in Kyoto.
Families With Children Welcome!
If you are traveling with children, please bring them along. We
have a variety of healthy foods and treats, and a large collection
of animated DVDs available.
