Our Story
Scallywags was born in the minds of two expats and one Vietnamese – Trevor Biggs, Robbie Addinall, and Nguyễn Lâm Tú Khải.
After arriving in Vietnam in 2019, Robbie and Trevor bonded as they went through the process of obtaining their Vietnamese motorcycle license- the practical test that Trevor failed twice. (You try doing it in front of 200 young Vietnamese kids!) Robbie proceeded to open a restaurant in Danang with his brother Jacques while Trevor went through somewhat of a medical emergency suffering from a detached retina in his right eye (hence the eyepatch in the logo!)
During Trevor’s medical excursions to Saigon, he turned lemons into lemonade by meeting his future wife – Khải. After getting married in Huế; Trevor was ready for his next adventure and the three rogues brainstormed and Scallywags was born.
"At Scallywags, we want everyone to feel at home. Whether you're here for the sports, the food, or just to relax, you're always welcome."
- Trevor & Khải
A Team of Three Rogues
A team of rogues, Robbie, Trevor, and Khải, founded Scallywags Sports Bar and Grill.

Together, they bring the spirit of adventure and camaraderie to every corner of Scallywags.

I wanted to find a place where I could enjoy football and some pints, and Scallywags certainly delivers. Beautiful looking bar, kind and attentive staff, and nice owners.
Atmosphere is especially great on a weekend, with sports shown on several screens. Highly recommended!
