This was one of the first bars I went to while in Rota. Had one too many and stumbled my way back to base. The following weekend, putting pieces of what happened down the cobblestone streets, I felt the nice feeling of familiarity of O'Grady's as I stood in front of the large green doors. Walked in and sat at the bar as Patrick made fun of me, my laziness in the military and anything else.
I went to that bar every weekend. And when I left Spain, and returned to visit in-laws, my first stop? O'Grady's. You can't go wrong in this bar. Great food, great music, great beer selection, and an amazing staff. If you stop in there, place your dollar on the wall, give blessings to Cassius Clay on the wall, and politely ask Patrick to play some Wu-Tang and Depeche Mode for me.
If your in Rota (my favorite place to be when I'm overseas) you have to go here. Drink a few beers, sign and tape a dollar bill on the ceiling, and throw some darts. It's close to other bars and eateries. I've been going here for a decade and a half (2005, 2006, 2008, 2015, 2017) and soon to return this year. Good prices, friendly people and open late.
Been away for 10 years. This small bar remembered my name and drink. Food is great, the menu is eclectic but wonderful. Truly the place to make your first stop in Rota!
Had the most wonderful Bánh-Mì. Seriously Vietnamese food in and Irish pub in Spain. You have to try it.
This Pub is spectacular!
