This is a slightly different style of review for a slightly different style of restaurant.Beautifuully situated in an atmospheric old Mill on the grassy bank of the Barrow River, it's been there since the handsome Mark was almost in short trousers.. His Father, the gregarious and warmly welcoming Martin and lovely Emer whose extraordinary oven turns out the most magical breads, scones, buns and biscuits are the dynamic trio in the background, foreground and wherever else you want them. The staff are charming, obliging and caring. I'm coming to the food! I'm bringing a dear friend to Mullachain next Monday so I know I'll be given a warm welcome, a window seat, and a genuine smile. The food will be mid price range and the quality superb. I shall dither among the deserts,
Quibble over choice of salads, slurp any one of the delicious Home-made soups and end with the best of Coffee and scones to die for! My friend and I will be waved off by Martin or Mark knowing that once Gain we have and experienced the magic of the Mullachain!

Thanks, for being so accommodating and kind, and saving our outing with the late bike hire, I never caught the owners name but we landed to go for a cycle and brought our own bikes but one of them had a soft tyre and we hadn't got the right pump with us, the owner hired me a bike at 16.00 pm and closed at 17.30 and said to knock at his house next door, when we got back and we did so at 21.00 pm he was so pleasant, and we had a good chat for about 10 mins, what an absolute gentleman thank you, and what a we peace of heaven you have there we will be back for sure 🙏💪💪

Love the Mullichain Cafe! The food and coffee are great. The service is friendly and lovely, the owners very nice. If you are looking for a fabulous homemade scone combined with gorgeous scenery, this is the place to go.

Such a secret gem of a spot and in fine weather like today it was like magic. Brought my Mexican friend and our dog there for coffee and cake after a long walk and it was beautiful. The owner(manager or gentleman in charge) was so lovely even though they were nearly closing he didn't make us feel like we had to hurry up or rush us. Next time I'll get there early enough to have some food. All the staff were very friendly also. Terrific place
