About Wm. Mulherin’s Sons (Philadelphia, PA) 

Wm. Mulherin’s Sons is a wood‑fired Italian restaurant housed in a restored 19th‑century whiskey blending and bottling facility in the heart of Fishtown.

Known for its handmade pastas, seasonal plates, and wood‑fired pizzas, Mulherin’s has become a neighborhood anchor and a destination for guests seeking elevated but unfussy dining. The experience is driven by genuine hospitality, a welcoming energy, and a team that takes pride in creating memorable moments for every guest who walks through the door.
