Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Rarely is a bar recommended to you and it then exceeds expectations.
For a traditional bar with excellent beer look no further. Sometimes you may struggle to get a seat but that tells you all you need to know about this place.
It’s a bar to socialise and meet new friends. Even the sport on the TV has the sound off.
The Guinness was the best I had in town and that says an awful lot about the quality.
An earlier report said ‘uninterested’ barmen. These guys are at the top of their trade. Constantly monitoring the customers and ensuring pints of Guinness are part poured waiting for the final finish, it’s almost an art form to watch how brilliantly they run the bar and keep thirsty drinkers constantly refreshed as quickly as possible.
This is a gem of a bar and you will surely enjoy the ‘craic’ and leave having made new friends, enjoyed conversation with great drinks in a wonderful atmosphere.

A great auld Dublin Pub, where there is no music, but you will strain your ears to hear what your friend is saying, as the sound of people talking and laughing is so loud.
One of the best pints of Guinness in Dublin can be found here!
The staff are great!
If you want to see what a Dublin Pub was like 30-40 years ago. When you step inside the Door at Mulligan's you will be transported back in time to a place where people use to talk to each other...

Well well well. First time in mulligans and brilliant experience. Bar staff are on the ball with a special mention to Tony who goes above and beyond and does not complain. Especially when asking for a little milk for a baileys which was 👌🏽👌🏽 very welcoming atmosphere extremely busy but your noticed quick! Very cosy establishment. Big thumbs up from me. A must when in Dublin.

Went there last Sat, so glad we did. One of the Girls in our group - her Great, great? Grandfather built the Bar Counter apparently. Got the run down from "Doc" re the Jockey Room - place was quite eerie. Great Pub, loads of history and an awesome pint of Guinness.

The perfect pint of Guinness, best we had in Dublin. Friendly pub, managed to get a couple of seats and ended up talking to some locals, something we made a habit of whilst being in Dublin. Great pub, felt very traditional

Briefly put, the pub had loads of history, that's what attracts it's clientele, odd local amongst all the tourists.
Big place, plenty of space to mull around, staff seem OK when not occupied with the locals. There's better drinking elsewhere but they do have a huge choice

A girls night out in Dublin with 3 of my friends was made perfect by such a central place to stay. Close to Grafton Street and the shopping, as well as great night life all around! Great to get home to a nice clean room, hot shower (it's huge!) and quiet at night too despite the location. Thanks so much to fellow Zimbabwean, Vusile, who checked us in and even let us leave our bags at reception while we explored Dublin the following afternoon :) the breakfast is also amazing!!

Please look at pictures before going. For some reason some people expect this to be a fancy Restaurant. This is an old school pub where they pull great pints. Nothing more and nothing less.
Also, readers of Dubliners view this place in a different light.

Very authentic pub serving THE best Guinness and definitely worth a detour to go, if you're in Dublin.
We are so pleased we visited Mulligan's...so thanks a million to Aidan and Amy who invited us to go in for a drink (or so!) with them after the Wales match - it was an absolute pleasure to meet you both and the perfect antidote to a disappointing rugby result!

I would very much like To purchase A T-shirt from your bar for my son. I would like to buy it online or through Tripadvisor and pay whatever the charges for the shirt and shipping. Could you please help me with this? Thanks in advance for your time and consideration..

This place is great to get the "real" news of Dublin. James Joyce took several "snapshots" from here to almost every single book he had wrote. Forget "Ulysses". Try to read "The Dublinners" before went there.
