About Us


Murphys Irish Pub, Osaka, was the first, and is still the best Irish bar in Japan. Since opening in 1991, we’ve been injecting the craic into the Shinsaibashi bar scene seven nights a week, fifty two weeks a year.

Murphys’ traditional Irish atmosphere attracts an eclectic mix of Japanese and Western clientele. The friendly international staff provide a warm welcome for locals and new visitors alike, while the extensive food and drink menu keeps all tastes satisfied.

The pub is proud to provide the cheapest full pint in Osaka, Guinness and Kilkenny direct from Ireland and a comprehensive choice of whiskeys and spirits. Murphys also offer authentic Irish fare home cooked to perfection, which is guaranteed to sate your hunger.

For sports enthusiasts, the projector is the ideal way to watch international and domestic sports from around the world, while music lovers will appreciate our weekly live music events, with everything from traditional Irish to contempory Japanese on display.

If that’s not enough for you, Murphys Irish Pub also offers some of the best special events in Osaka, from the annual St Patricks Day party to weekly deals such as “Toss The Boss Tuesday” to our daily Happy Hour.

So come on down, say hello and enjoy the craic. As we like to say: “It’s worth giving a poke when the telly’s broke!” It’s not as if you had any plans…
