The de Vere family immigrated to the United States from Dublin, Ireland. In the early 1980's they decided to call Sacramento their home. Everything about de Vere's is authentic, the pictures, the decor, even all of the fixtures and furniture were designed and built in Ireland and reassembled back here in the states. The de Vere family is very active in the community. They are a proud supporter of The Sacramento Republic, often opening very early in the morning (or in the middle of the night depending on who you are) to offer televised soccer matches from around the world on nine flat screen TVs. For the past several years they have hosted a head-shaving charity event benefiting St. Baldrick's, a children's cancer foundation. The downtown Sacramento contribution in the past six years has reached over a million dollars. de Vere's also has a whiskey society that grants you benefits for being a member. A lifetime membership is only $50. Membership includes an event called "Big Bottle Night": a few times a year they purchase a rare whiskey for their members and offer it at cost. Space is very very limited- a rare opportunity, indeed. Oh- did I mention they have delicious food, awesome service and great drinks?

To say O'Mally's Irish Pub is an Old Sacramento staple would be a mild understatement. Not only has this Irish Pub been around for what seems to be forever, they have managed to fight the mainstream wave and go without a website, but you will find a Facebook page. This may actually be one of the only Irish Pubs on this list that can boast the fact that they really don't need these forms of marketing. The fact is, if you know anything about Sacramento history, you know where O'Mally's is located and have likely been there at least once. Customers have enjoyed good drinks, good times and shared great memories at O'Mally's over the years. Thankfully this is one Irish Pub the has established their staying power so they won't be going anywhere anytime soon.
