Real Ale, Irish Stew and Mulligans Music
Nobody makes a pub quite like the Irish. In fact, whilst other Europeans have their chic bars, the classic convivial atmosphere of the great Irish pub is unique. Oh a hot, thirsty night, with a growing rumble in the tum, nothing satisfies quite like a refreshing pint and a hearty plate of traditional fare.

Forget fizzy lagers, nouvelle cuisine and fancy fusion, a tankard of real ale and a meaty main course is what is sometimes needed. Mulligans is the latest on the block of Irish pubs, and even after a short time on the ever busy Sukhumvit soi 11, it seems like this big, open plan style public house come restaurant has been here forever.
The luck of the Irish certainly seems to have lured people in and it is that kind of any time of day type of place where you could quite easily sit alone or meet up with friends. Beer barrels as tables outside, the inside has lots of seating too and upstairs is more space. With plasma screens for sports and a stage area for good singing and dancing, the Thai-style open design of Mulligans makes it a perfect fit in this people watching, holiday-feel soi, and you do not feel hemmed in to a dark cubbyhole or lounge.
The food tries hard to make an effort so that although it is not high-class dining, the menu is a plus point, rather than an afterthought. This is a dining pub without a doubt. The Irish stew for 435 thb, served with a big plate of creamy mash which tastes fresh and wholesome, or bread if you prefer, has soft chunks of braised lamb, ideal for hungry European men missing home. The sauce is not too thick that it becomes too much of a winter warmer either so it fits remarkably well with the climate too.
A starter is the breaded Pacific john dory strips served with chips and homemade tartar sauce for 200 thb. Given the mash and chip options with the mains you might be hoping for more fish and less chips with this tasty fish snack. Fish and chips are a signature dish too, another classic dish from Britain.
The fillet of beef tenderloin, for 580 thb, is as soft and silky as you would hope for, and steak knives turning up are not needed as the steak cuts like butter, showing the quality of the meat. Caesar salad comes on the same plate which is a nice summery side, and yet tradition is kept with a choice of rich sauces and potatoes too.
The ales on tap include O’Hara’s with the autumnal wheat tones of Curim Gold and a strong tasting I.P.A. For lovers of real ale this is a real treat to be savoured. Mulligans has the space to not have to cram everything in and this gives it a big, relaxed pub feel which does not lose any of its welcoming atmosphere, cozy corner feel and inimitable Irish charm.
