"The team are all very excited for our first Christmas season and we look forward to meeting other local businesses and new customers at our Christmas party nights.

“At Mulligan’s, we pride ourselves in sourcing as much produce as possible from local businesses and suppliers. We hope this will be reciprocated as we all know the importance of ‘supporting local’, particularly during the busy festive period.”
