The leprechaun is said to be a solitary creature, whose principal occupation is making and mending shoes, and who enjoys practical jokes and banter. According to William Butler Yeats, the great wealth of these fairies comes from the "treasure-crocks, buried of old in war-time", which they have uncovered (at the end of an elusive rainbow) and appropriated. Over the years leprechauns have evolved and adapted with variations founds in different parts of Ireland. One of the most significant evolutionary presence in Ireland is the infamous MULLICHAIN still a practical joker, still mischievous and still dressed in green (albeit polo shirts) and can be found settled in The picturesque village of St Mullins County Carlow. They no longer make shoes but welcome the weary travelers and walkers to their den now commonly referred to as the MULLICHAIN CAFE. Disguised within the walls of an old mill serving great food with a loud Mullichain welcome. The Chief of the legendary Mullichains Martin O’Brien and the Mullichain clan of Emer and Mark occupy this great establishment amongst antiquities from the fabled Mullichain clan. The menu contains good food with weird names, the Glynn, The Drummond, the Newtown named after the many Mullichain outposts dotted through the Barrow Vally. 

Inside filled with laughter and banter as the Chief Of the Mullichains entertains the unwitting guests as they sip great coffee, Barry’s Tea or fine Wine. A sublime experience. Outside one will hear the singing birds with at times a sound of what appears more fitting to the Jurassic era. Some Say it just a heron but no. It’s far more than a big grey bird it’s the chant of the Mullichain warrior. The MULLICHAIN CAFE - not an experience it’s an adventure. Visit it
