Manchester’s Home of Guinness,
Craic & Live Music

Welcome to Mulligans – the city’s oldest Irish pub, and one of its most celebrated. Located in the heart of Deansgate, with a rich history dating back over 170 years, Mulligans offers an authentic Irish pub experience defined by warm hospitality, live music every night, and what many consider the best pint of Guinness outside of Ireland. 

Known for its atmosphere, exceptional drinks, and love for all things Irish, the privately owned pub provides that unmistakable welcome you only find in a true Irish local. 

No reservations needed, just lively, loved and proudly Irish – this is more than just a pub. This is Mulligans.

MULLIGANS MERCH

THE BLACK STUFF
PERFECTED

At Mulligans, pouring Guinness isn’t just a job – it’s a craft and a point of pride. Behind every pint is a level of care you’ll struggle to find anywhere else. From the angle of the glass to the temperature of the keg, absolutely nothing is left to chance.

TECHNIQUE HONED
OVER YEARS

Owner Pádraig Brady has trained every member of the team in the pub’s signature pour. It’s a technique honed over years, passed on with the kind of reverence usually reserved for family secrets. And it shows.

THE BEST PINT
OUTSIDE IRELAND

With 24 Guinness Taps in total and 30 dedicated purely to Stout, Mulligan’s sells over 13,000 pints a week. It’s no surprise we’re known for serving “the best pint of Guinness outside of Ireland.”
