\nA new pub is open for business in downtown Hudson Falls.<\/p>\n

Mullen\u2019s Pub pub is located at 198 Main St., next to the Strand Theater, where Maxwell\u2019s Pub used to be. Scott Boucher is the new owner and operator.<\/p>\n

\u201cI heard Tim and Jane Havens were purchasing the building, but weren\u2019t interested in running a restaurant or pub. I\u2019ve always thought it would be fun and challenging to operate one, so I introduced myself to Tim,\u201d said Boucher. \u201cHe mentioned several times he wasn\u2019t looking to make any money on the venture, just wanted to make sure it didn\u2019t turn into a dive bar.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey, along with others, have invested a large amount of time and money into building up the Strand and the town. So I gave them my word and we worked out a deal,\u201d said Boucher.<\/p>\n

He said Mullen\u2019s Pub \u201cis a comfortable, welcoming place to have a drink and a great meal. If you don\u2019t know anyone when you walk in, you\u2019ll definitely make friends before you leave.\u201d
\nPete Brown owned and operated Maxwell\u2019s in the location in which Mullen\u2019s now operates. Brown owned the establishment for 18 years and was ready to retire. The property was purchased, and Boucher took interest in the prospect.<\/p>\n

Mullen\u2019s Pub is named after Boucher\u2019s mother\u2019s maiden name.<\/p>\n

Boucher continues to work full-time outside of the restaurant. He said he has a great team to keep things going when he is elsewhere.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m lucky enough to have hired the help I can trust when I\u2019m not here to run the restaurant. We are still working out the kinks but it\u2019s been great,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Boucher credits the community at large and some friends in particular with helping him get Mullen\u2019s up and running. Friends and family helped clean, paint and organize the venue. Other area business people gave Boucher advice and assistance.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy sister-in-law Amy Boucher showed me things I didn\u2019t know about the business. She\u2019s been in the restaurant business since high school,\u201d said Boucher.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy cook, Chris Holcolm, came on board and took a chance with me. He\u2019s putting out great food and people are loving the product. He\u2019s been in the industry for about five years,\u201d said Boucher.<\/p>\n

Boucher is a Hudson Falls native and current resident.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had been a frequent patron of Maxwell\u2019s for the past 18 years. I probably wouldn\u2019t have done this in any other town. I have the community behind me, and that has been a huge boost for business,\u201d said Boucher.<\/p>\n

The restaurant is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day except Monday.<\/p>\n
