Our Story: The Heart and Soul of John Mullins

Since opening in 1997, John Mullins Irish Pub & Restaurant has been a staple in Maastricht, named after the legendary Guinness promoter, John Mullins. Instantly successful, our pub has attracted both locals and international visitors with its original pub quiz, live sports, and a superb range of food and drinks.

Over the years, John Mullins has evolved with numerous upgrades while preserving its authentic pub atmosphere. Designed and crafted in Ireland by O'Sullivan’s Interiors from Waterford, our cozy interiors feature authentic furniture and fixtures sourced from old pubs, stately homes, and even abandoned churches. This dedication to authenticity creates a unique charm where everyone feels at home.

At John Mullins, we offer more than just a place to eat and drink. With 4 HD screens for live sports, a dartboard, board games, and a welcoming staff, we’ve become a favorite spot for unforgettable nights out. Our popular pub quiz every Thursday, live music every Friday, and occasional DJ events bring friends together for fun, laughter, and camaraderie.

Our drink selection includes a wide range of beers on tap, such as Grolsch, Guinness, Kilkenny, Grolsch Weizen, La Chouffe, Duvel, Guinness IPA, Grimbergen special beers, seasonal brews, and Magners cider. You’ll also find a variety of red, white, rosé, and sparkling wines, along with a full range of spirits and soft drinks to craft your favorite mixed beverages. Our famous whiskey collection boasts over 40 varieties, constantly updated to offer something new for both beginners and connoisseurs.

Located conveniently near the St. Servaas Bridge, on the main road from the bus and train station to the city center, John Mullins is the perfect place to spend an evening, whether you’re with old friends or new acquaintances. Group reservations are highly sought after, with private quizzes and whiskey tastings as favorites for many organizations looking for a fun night out.

Whether you're here for a pint of Guinness, a whiskey tasting, or simply to enjoy the craic, you’ll find that John Mullins is more than just a pub—it’s a home away from home. Our professional and friendly staff ensure every visit is memorable. Whether you live in Maastricht or are just passing through, make sure to drop by. Come for a pint and stay for the craic!
