    a plate of food
    Cindy H.

    If you want something different try the The Opossum's Tale in Historic Jonesborough! I ordered take out so this is a small plate that I dished out at home (the servings were larger than you see.) I was craving some beans and greens and thought I'd try the gluten free veggie fritters with beet-ginger toum sauce. It was mouth watering good!! Check out their FB page and their menu on their website. They definitely offer food that's out of the norm around here. Judging by the crowd in there it's a welcome change!

    Cauliflower fritters. Yum! Dips were great and garlicky

    Quaint atmosphere. Pleasant service. Pricey for the serving sizes, but tasty. Will likely go again.

    Food and ambience was great, but the service was a little slow. The place was crowded, which usually means "good eats"

    After spending a few days in Dublin Ireland and frequenting The Temple Bar and Brazen Head, I was…read moremissing a good drawn Guinness. I heard of Mulligans but hadn't made it up until yesterday. I asked an old friend to meet me there for lunch. Albeit a quieter time of the day, the decor and stage indicated a much livelier crowd in the evening. Note to self, go back on a Friday night. Our waitress Gatsby was a pure delight. She was prompt with both our drinks and food. We asked a lot of questions and through them all she smiled and left us satisfied with her replies. Now, if you're craving Irish beer or whiskey, they'll be your new favorite stop. We had Guinness, of course, but also, Harps and Smithwicks. Not much of a whiskey person but I did see their selections. We both had the fish and chips. Good and fresh. They have lots of Irish dishes so return trips are on the schedule. I can only imagine a full place and good music playing! What a fun place. Thanks Gatsby! You were the best.

    It had to be the proverbial "luck of the Irish" that we blew into Mulligan's on a windy November…read moreday in Johnson City. This place is the real deal with Bangers and Mash, Shepherds Pie, Guinness Stew and more. I settled on Fish and Chips (actually cottage fries) that came with wee ramekins of tartar sauce and tangy, sweet coleslaw, and a slice of lemon. Instead of citrus, I chose to liberally sprinkle malt vinegar on my battered cod and potatoes. Yum! The best fish and chips I ever enjoyed was at a diner near the California coast, but Mulligan's is pretty darn close. Although the pub has a hearty beer and cocktail selection, I ordered a soft drink which cost only $2.00 and came with a refill. Now that's a bargain! Since only a few other tables were occupied, the spouse and I got first-class service from a witty Irishman (I think) named Ciaran. (sp?) Later that evening, the pub was hosting live entertainment, and on some nights there's karaoke and other events. If I ever find myself in Johnson City again, I'll be sure to swing by.
