Pals onto a winner
A FORMER nightlife promoter is moving from dancing beats to coffee beans in a sign of the times.
Dubliner Neil Mulhern, 29, worked for almost a decade in the nightlife industry but when the pandemic shut down the sector he decided to diversify.
His friend and ex-journalist Ruairi Cotter, 28, had returned from a year abroad in Australia and they decided to start their own coffee shop. Neil said:
“We’d talked about doing something together for years.
“I didn’t think I’d have time because I was involved with running Krystle nightclub and we started working on it but as things turned out, I did.”
The pair set up their coffee trailer at Mobhi Road, Glasnevin. It’s called Bua which means win in Irish and their slogan is “first win of the day”.
Neil added: “People feel safe in the open air.”
