About
O’Garas is the kind of dependable Western pub that Pratumnak’s expats treat as a local canteen. It occupies the ground floor of the Tara Court Hotel on Soi 5 Pratumnak — an air-conditioned, comfortably furnished room that’s as suited to a quiet morning coffee and a fry-up as it is to a beer and the football later on. There’s no gimmick here: the draw is consistent, generous Western cooking in a hilly, mostly residential part of town that’s short on it.
What to order
The full English breakfast is the headline act, and it’s a proper one — eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, the works — served from early and available all day for those who like breakfast for dinner. Beyond it, the menu runs through the pub-grill canon: roast dinners (a particular point of pride), steak sandwiches, burgers, fish and chips, mixed grills and steaks, with a section of Thai dishes for the table that wants som tam or a curry. Portions are hearty and prices are mid-range — more than a Thai shophouse, less than a hotel restaurant.

Good to know
This is a sit-down pub-restaurant rather than a late-night bar, so come for the food and the easy atmosphere, not a party. Pratumnak is hilly and a little out of the way — pleasantly quiet, but you’ll want a baht bus along Pratumnak Road or a Grab/Bolt to get here and back, especially at night. It’s roughly ten minutes by car to Walking Street in one direction and Jomtien in the other, which makes it a handy breakfast or lunch stop if you’re staying anywhere on the hill.

Detailed facts, cautions, facilities & reviews
Full overview
O'Garas (styled O'Garas Irish Bar & Restaurant) is a long-running Irish pub and grill on Pratumnak Hill, tucked into the ground floor of the Tara Court Hotel on Soi 5 Pratumnak, opposite reception. It has been feeding Pratumnak's big expat community for years and is best known for its full English breakfast — regularly rated one of the best in Pattaya — served from early morning alongside a broad menu of pub classics: roasts, steak sandwiches, burgers, fish and chips, grills and a handful of Thai dishes. The room is air-conditioned, comfortable and unpretentious, with spacious seating that suits a long lazy breakfast, a lunchtime pint or a relaxed dinner rather than a raucous night out. Prices are mid-range for a Western pub in Pattaya — noticeably above a Thai street stall but fair for the portion sizes — and the kitchen runs all day, which makes it a reliable fallback when you want a proper Western meal at an odd hour. It sits in the quiet, hilly Pratumnak pocket between South Pattaya and Jomtien, a short baht-bus or Grab ride from either. Hours and specials change, so confirm before a special trip.
