ST JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. -- The owners of Mulligan’s Bar and Grill, Sue and Pat Mulligan, announced they will be closing the establishment for good in July.

Mulligan’s opened in August of 2009 to accommodate area residents and Notre Dame fans alike.

The Mulligan duo from Florida had a vision to be involved with the community that would support the good and bad times of the Fighting Irish.

“Our retirement will consist of cherishing our memories of the last 12 years that have been the best 12 years of our lives. In our retirement we will continue to come and watch the Irish dominate, but it will be from the other side of the bar,” the owners said.

The owners also notified the public that the bar will be closing in July on a day that has yet to be announced.
