Molly’s Pub

We had a great time. A group of us traveling for work went here one night and they treated us like royalty. Really a good bunch off people. The karaōke was a fun little treat. They’re weren’t many people there when we arrived but by the end of the night it was packed out. I didn’t think that happened on a Tuesday night. The drinks were pretty cheap, which was a real problem because some of the group took advantage of that lol but the night was pretty cool. Not a bad thing to say about this place. Cute little dive with some pretty nice people in it.

when the bartenders aren’t engaging customers in disparaging stories about gays and transsexuals it’s a decent divey Irish sports bar. Check your drawers and find an identity before you berate people unlike yourself.

Great fun time. Everyone was friendly and a competitive time at the pool table. Patio was also nice

Putting on awesome shows these days, national acts such as Austin Lucas and JKutchma. Those Crosstown Rivals and Grizzly have played to PBR soaked crowds who love to leave it all on the stage. The ambiance is not Irish but more of a décor of a common bar in Evanston Indiana. The Staff is well attentive unless otherwise occupied by drifters and kids from a college campus nearby who don’t belong in clown college let alone community college. Don’t worry you have a good time, food after dark depends on who is working, don’t worry, they will let you use there phone to call Frank’s or point you to a gastropub. All in all the smell of a 1970s dog track in its heyday is comforting as its just as comforting as a dirty Sanchez on a Sunday morning when your trying to come up with a what happen last night story and a simple goodbye

good beer selection and it reminded me of the authentic pubs I went to Ireland. I definitely want to go back when it warms up and check out the upstairs outdoor balcony area.

In town from Boston! Although the bathroom is really far away this place is great. Even on a Monday afternoon when it’s 35 degrees outside. Monique behind the bar is great we even bought her pizza to show her appreciation.
Beware of shady deals in the bathroom…

Beers where good. They have rockets on the TVs. But the food meh the pizza is cheap. Even though it was cheap the pizza was totally tostino frozen pizza. So meh wish they where better.

Bartender was great, but the immature door man was bragging about punching a woman the previous night because it was self defense. Not appropriate, much less to brag about it to customers.

Rarely crowded during the day. Bar stocked with Irish whiskeys. Great place for taking an antidote from the fast-​paced office. Crowded with loud-​mouthed «professionals» in the evenings, which makes it fun to know the bartenders before hand and subtle ways bad customers get ignored.

Worst. Service. Ever. Girl with blue hair was more interested in flirting with her coworker than serving the line at the bar. She acted as though she was bothered by out presence. It was almost embarrassing how little she card about helping customers. Sad really. ¹⁄₁₀. Never again.

If you work downtown, stop by for lunch. Great sandwiches and pizza. I frequent this pub often with my girlfriend to meet great people, watch baseball/​football, and hang out on the patio or upstairs balcony. They have karaōke on Saturday’s at 9pm, and sometimes have live bands upstairs. The staff is fantastic. I can’t say enough positive things about this downtown pub!

Went here during a pub crawl. Decent beer selection, pool tables and big booths make it fun for friends. Big dance floor area upstairs, although sometimes they have a musician playing live there.

Although im flattered that the bartender rejected my id (i guess that means i look young), it’s a LEGITIMATE id.
The DPS, being the gems they are, happened to send me my DL with a picture of me that is distant and smaller than usual. Due to my lazyness, unwillingness to wait in line for 6 hours, and lack of wanting to deal with their attitudes, I havent gone back to the DPS to fix my license yet.
I have gotten into countless bars with this ID and have gotten through airport security a bunch of times as well. All you have to do is use the little light thingy and scan the back and you’ll see its real.
this is the ONLY place that gave me a hard time. And i wasnt a fan of the lady bartender. This was a while ago so maybe she’s not there anymore. but seriously, either up the technology in this place and get those scanny things. Or recognize that IF i wanted to bring in a fake ID, i wouldnt bring one that looked so obviously fake.
PS… the DPS of houston sucks. a Unilocal review for another daaaaaaaay

St. Patrick’s Day Irish dancing but only drink specials are a $ 5 «Shamrock Bomb»
Nice servers!

Having lived in Ireland for a while, I decided to make it my mission to find an «authentic» Irish Pub in Houston once I moved back! And, thankfully, I did!
Molly’s Pub is a place I enjoy going being at because it makes me feel I’m back in Ireland for the time I’m there. Also, the atmosphere is so chill and perfect after a long day of work at the office downtown. Lastly, the people who work there have been so nice. I remember one night there were not alot of people at the pub and the bartender was nice enough to offer us a sample of some drinks he was making.
I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a nice place to have drinks and a good conversation.

I spent a long weekend in Houston and visited Molly’s Pub because it was near the hotel. Molly’s is a great local Irish pub. Good beer and atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Really fun bar in downtown Houston. It’s Irish themed with pool tables, jukebox, delicious Frito Pie, and a nice little outdoor seating area. The bartenders are really nice but make sure they close the right tab on your card. It seems that they get them mixed up because my boyfriend got the wrong card back.

I don’t know what to think. I used to come here all the time when I first moved here. It was a great place, everythng was clean and the bartenders were super nice and knowledgable. Now… not so much
I went in the other day and had to explain that Tito’s is a brand of vodka, and a press means soda and sprite. I mean really, you are in Texas and you are a bar tender? And it really smelled like… dead something. And they tried to cover it up with something girly. gross. It’s dirty.
I think what really ran this place down was when they got rid of the manager and good bartenders a few years back. It’s been downhill ever since. They had a daytime bartender (gone now) that would let homeless people in during the day. After that, business people would come in after work, and see the homeless or near homeless, and would walk right out. Saw it with my own eyes plenty of times. They never really recovered from that. It causes good regulars to quit coming because we dont like to be harassed for money. no regulars means the bartenders don’t give a damn about the place because they arent making any money. It’s just a bad downword spiral
Speaking of homeless, that is a huge problem here. You cant enjoy the patio outside because without a fail, a homeless person will bug you for change or a cigarette. always.
the prices are cheap, they have a ton of TV’s. the building itself is really cool. I just can’t go back to being a regular here because it’s gone downhill so badly. I go to Warrens around the corner instead.
I do still frequent other Molly’s. The clear lake Mollys (same owners) is about 10x better.

There is nothing abysmal about the place. Hm. It is basically like Shay’s across the street just without the sass from the bartender.
A decent place for a pint, if like me you are avoiding the Flying Saucer, before moving on to the next thing. Or a good waypoint if you started at Hearsay/Warren’s and are moving towards Sunny’s (this is usually when I have ended up here.)
It is never that busy, which I like. But that just makes it even more awkward when there are clearly drunk «bro» dbags that just ruin the experience for everyone. I am not really going to knock Molly’s down a star for stupid drunk guys. But perhaps if one American light beer is getting these morons drunk, they should not continue to serve the bros additional American light beers. Just a thought.

I’ve always been a fan of Irish pubs. I came here on a Friday night, after looking for nearby watering holes downtown, something down-​to-​earth without a cover charge or wild crowd waiting in line to get into a club. Walking the couple blocks to this place, there were several bars/​clubs with waiting lines pouring onto the sidewalks, so I was surprised to see very little patrons in Molly’s Pub. Authentic looking Irish pub with a friendly staff always there for refills. Karaōke was the flavor of the night, so it was fun to watch. It is a 2 story place with the bathrooms upstairs. Small seating patio on the sidewalk. Beer taps include Smithwick and Guinness — I couldn’t be happier. Food prices seemed fair but limited.
Good downtown relaxed hangout with your peeps for drinks and some bar food.
