Mr Mulligans Newcastle — Attraction in Newcastle upon Tyne

"Lyrical And His Family Visit Mr Mulligan's Golf & Bar, Saturday 12 June 2021".

Parking is easy to find and very close by. We parked in The Gate, but Eldon Square is literally just across the road. Oh well, we know for next time now.

The golf courses inside are rather fun and the soft drinks are decent, but unfortunately the lights and noise can be potential sensory overload for autistic people like myself. Yay for tinted lenses lol. I coped with it rather well in any case though and I still had fun. The disabled toilet's flush handle was a bit busted, but it's still working just about. Nice and clean in there at least.

Unfortunately the actually inconvenient thing for the most part was the sticker on the outside entrance window saying "Charge your phone here". However, there were no visible charging stations anywhere, and the staff confirming upon request that there was no such service suggested the contrary to what was claimed at the entrance. Maybe it meant there's just some spare sockets around? That's not how the sticker's graphic design seemed to imply it though (probably a minor detail and it wasn't the end of the world, this is just more of a head's up in case no phone charging service actually exists there). I interpretted the signage as it meaning it had a charging station somewhere, but oh well. This is possibly vague or misleading advertising at best, or false advertising at worst. Either that or the staff just didn't know for whatever reason. The staff members we did interact with seemed very nice though, if not a little bit slow with our drinks (to be fair though it was very busy so I can respect the time and hard work it takes). My phone was of course dead by now, (hence the enquiry with the staff in the first place to follow up on the sticker's advertised service), so unfortunately I didn't get my own photograph. However, fellow public member Christopher Beers' photograph of the entrance on Google Maps from one week ago shows the same sticker, (thanks Chris), so I know it was definitely real! (I drew an arrow to highlight it because of my low quality crop zoom).

Everything else was as it said though. No major problems that I can recall, and the minor issues we had were most likely situational for the particular day we visited. Even then, nothing could really spoil our visit anyway. I personally love the outer space theme it has going on right now. It was a fun visit and I would return again, but at a less busier time. Mostly pleasant evening, just not as relaxing as it could have been. My genuine review is 3.5 out of 5 stars, so I will round it to 4 for this submission. Thank you for reading my first review, and if you are lucky enough to visit this place at a good time of day in a good mood, (and with a full phone battery lol), then definitely give it a shot. Enjoy your time at Mulligans and have a good rest of your day....

I mean I wouldn’t say it was a bad course, but I wouldn’t say it was a good course. Easy to read the greens, although i did bring my own club and ball with me so that helped. Disappointed to see that not many of the patrons were not wearing full golf attire, I actually saw one patron with a T shirt that read ‘Frankie said relax’ let me tell you, when you have a 2 shot lead on the 8th and the flashing Alien lights are flashing making noises there is certainly nothing to relax about. Also, despite? Every attempt to shush the crowd, the ailens kept shouting during all 8 of my practice swings which I think is very unsportinglike. I thought the props were a little dated as i doubt the wooden boxes really carried space suits. I thought some of the obstacles got in the way a little bit, for example you would never see a giant windmill in the middle of the green at Augusta would you? Anyway, not a bad course. Good looking bar staff. Stunning course and a real family...

Not your normal review but here we go!

We visited Mr Mulligans back in January 2025, on a spur of the moment following our elopement earlier that morning and we're just wandering around the city centre.

Firstly the staff (who I wish we took their names!) greeted us warmly, totally took care of us and were super sweet by giving us 2 glasses of prosecco to celebrate. They made our experience 10xs better.

The mini golf was really fun and interactive and despite the hindrance of a wedding dress it was a great laugh. We thoroughly enjoyed the arcade area as well and got some photos in the photo booth to capture the moment that I'll be telling people about for years to come.

If you're in the area, have an occasion to celebrate or generally just want to chill and hang out this...
