Irish Pub in Sao Paulo? Yes, you’ve heard that right. Nestled in Bela Vista, just a mere two blocks from the bustling Avenida Paulista, The Blue Pub stands tall at the junction of Alameda Campinas and Alameda Ribeirão Preto. The true essence of an Irish pub can be felt right here in the heart of Sao Paulo.
A True Irish Ambience in the Middle of Sao Paulo
Upon stepping inside, you’re transported straight to Dublin. The pub spans four levels, each brimming with authentic Irish charm. Its darkened interiors, adorned with beer, craft beer, whisky, and scotch insignias, ooze old-world allure. For sports aficionados, screens at every corner broadcast your favorite matches, and for those with an inclination towards games, the underground beckons with a pool table. And if you’re lucky, you might even catch a live rock performance that sets the mood just right.
The Liquid Gold and Gastronomic Delights of The Blue Pub
The beer menu here would make any Brit proud. And while there’s an impressive selection of UK’s finest craft beers, no visit is complete without indulging in the smooth, iconic Guinness. But the pub is not just about quenching thirst; it’s a culinary voyage. The Picadilly, the juicy lamb burger, and the spicy chilli dog are a testament to the chef’s brilliance. To put it simply, you’re in for a treat. And if comparisons are any gauge, this place outshines its contemporaries, including the much-hyped O’Malley’s, with its unmatched quality in food, drinks, and service.

Special Nights and The Blue Pub Magic
While any night is a good night at The Blue Pub, Wednesdays stand out. Football enthusiasts gather around for game nights, making the atmosphere electric. However, if mingling and flirting is on your agenda, you might want to skip this day. Instead, revel in the happy hour promotions from Tuesday to Friday between 4 PM to 8 PM. Special occasions like Saint Patrick’s Day, Champions League games, and Halloween are elevated to epic proportions here.
For the Locals, By the Locals
Unlike many places in Sao Paulo that are teeming with tourists, The Blue Pub boasts a loyal clientele. Regulars, mostly professionals unwinding after a long day at work, and expatriates seeking a slice of home, fill the space. They’re the real testament to the pub’s unyielding charm.
