Welcome.

Ri Ra, The Irish Pub Restaurant in Burlington, Vermont is truly authentic, built in Ireland using many salvaged materials. Located at 123 Church Street, it is one of the finest, most decorative buildings in Burlington. Dating from 1931, the pub was originally the Chittenden County and later The Merchants Bank. Using a mixture of both Irish and local craftsman, we have managed to respectfully retain the building's detailed, marbled facade, blending the old with the new.

The pub is split into several distinctive styles, each designed to replicate a slightly different aspect of the "Pub" experience. The pub was extended in 2002 to add "The Library" area which celebrates Ireland's rich literary heritage; The Library can be booked as a private function room. Any visit to Ri Ra is a pleasure, where you can relax in the warm, welcoming atmosphere, revel in the art of conversation, and enjoy the award winning food. As we say at Ri Ra, "there are no strangers here, only friends that have not met"
