i. Biography
Croatian by nationality, Goran Jandric has worked in Dublin hospitality since 2008, building a practice shaped by discipline, movement and a steady interest in the combinations that make a room work. At Orwell Road in Dublin, the job sits where cocktails, food and wine meet, and the standard is less about show than about control: timing, order and the ability to keep service composed. Yoga came into his life through martial arts such as karate, adding another layer to the poise and focus that run through his work.
The Climb
Before hospitality became the centre of his working life, Goran Jandric trained at Police Academy, a background that established a habit of structure and responsibility. That training carries through to the role he holds today at Orwell Road, where calm judgment and constant attention are part of the job. The move from Police Academy to general manager reads as a progression built on consistency rather than noise: service, rhythm and exacting standards, kept in order over time.
Today
He is general manager at Orwell Road in Dublin, where cocktails, food and wine shape the pace of the day. The role puts him at the point where guest experience is assembled one detail at a time, from the timing of a drink to the placement of a plate to the moment a glass lands on the table. For Goran, these are parts of one hospitality language, and it is a language that depends on attention, taste and a clear read on the room.
In Their Words “From Croatia originally, I moved to Dublin in 2008 and have been working in hospitality ever since.”
Recognition
For Goran Jandric, recognition sits in the durability of the work itself. “From Croatia originally, I moved to Dublin in 2008 and have been working in hospitality ever since” is a plain account of continuity: a move that became a long stretch in service, and a career that has taken shape through steady application in Dublin. The value here is consistency, curiosity and a clear commitment to hospitality.
