THE LOCALE | Mulligan's Sports Bar & Restaurant

THE LOWDOWN | We've all probably had a moment or two in our lives when we've wanted a do-over. But big mistakes make great stories, and Mulligan's Sports Bar & Restaurant is a great spot to share those anecdotes over a cold beverage. That's where we went for happy hour this week.

Mulligan's Sports Bar & Restaurant is an Irish/American pub-styled joint that took over the building where Pat and Mike’s used to be located. In the bar area, there's a rectangular bar, low-top tables and a stage where you'll find live entertainment on weekends and karaoke on Wednesdays.

As you look around you'll see TVs, football flags and a large aquarium. You'll also see locals who frequent this laid-back bar. There's an outdoor area as well as a dining area.

Happy hour runs from 4 to 7 p.m. daily. Drink deals include $2.25 domestic drafts, $2.75 domestic bottles, $3 wine and $2.50 house liquors. Appetizers including wings, nachos, sliders and quesadillas are less than five bucks.
