It's Your Lucky Day

O'Callaghan's opened its doors in The Barnyard in 2020, built around a simple idea: Irish pub food doesn't have to be an afterthought. Managing Partner Brent Sepulvado built a scratch kitchen, an in-house pastry chef, and an upscale Irish whiskey bar inside a space that still carries its original fireplace and bar — the heart of the room since long before O'Callaghan's arrived.

Today it's the highest-rated Irish pub on the Monterey Peninsula, a gathering spot for big games, weekend live music, and the kind of regulars who treat the patio like a second living room.
