This is a local Hotspot. It's been around for decades. Indoor and outdoor seating. Food is catered by a food truck. There are lots of beers on tap. The bartenders are friendly. I love their Irish coffee. Payment is CASH ONLY. Food truck offers a variety of delicious Mexican dishes. You must try their carne asada tacos and birria. Food truck accepts cards and cash.

Just amazing! The barman was very gentle, the place has this Irish style which is great and special. They have their drink, you can also find beers like: Coors, Sierra Nevada, Modelo. All types of alcohol are sell in there and Coca Cola is free! Very clean restroom. I really like it and the plus is that the bar is Pet Friendly!

This is a great old-time bar with lots of character and fun. Very welcoming people. I had a wonderful time and will go back. The San Francisco banjo band was there and the music was great.

Full disclaimer I'm adopted from Ireland so when someone at the bar says "I too am from county cork!!" I can only respond "Is That You Papa? PAPA!?" Of course I'm just joking and good thing the guy was laughing b/c that's a gamble that could go either way. Up-Date 4th of July Edition: Everyone super friendly just looking for an excuse to laugh I never can get enough of the genuine artifacts they have on any one of the walls, me and 2 friends played pool while we enjoyed some really great food, courtesy of the bar. I know you can buy a Guinness anywhere but they have a truly great set up that basically ruined me for any other Guinness, unless it's from Molloy's you better be in Ireland b/c it don't get better... What’s a “football” game if your not drinking off a cask of Irish Whiskey ?

Danny boy was amazing in every way we were English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 he was helpful and offered us lots of local knowledge, top man in every way and kicked the freeloading smokers out!

We go there for drinks and a fun, relaxed place to hang out with friends. Nothing fancy but a warm place frequented by mostly locals. You can play pool too. There is a Mexican food truck parked outside to get food from. There's outdoor seating. There's parking lot and street parking.

The greatest local irish pub at the gateway of the peninsula. Great drinks! The food truck is not permanent but the best steak fries. Nachos. Burritos! Tacos! Havent tried the tortas or gorditas. Great menu!

A classic old school watering hole. Take time to check out all of the history hung on the walls. The old school boxing pictures are a gem. If you like dive bars Molloy's is a must go.

Random stop in, wow some really cool history here. Got to meet one of the sons that's the owners and gave us a breakdown. Really good service and atmosphere! Will be going back

Local pub, with localbguests, but very open to speak to newbies in their area. Went there a few times, and it was a great experience.

I’ve never been to the bar, but I eat at the food truck all of the time. The bar always seems to have patrons in and out, so I’m assuming it is nice there. Never anyone shady, always clean, good looking folks. Giving them 5 stars, because they treat the food truck people well. :) shoutout Las Pencas, every location they have is good!

It's a bar with billiards, darts... drinks are very good and inexpensive. It's kinda like dive bar, but nicer. The women's bathroom is really pretty and clean. There is a food truck on site.

This BAR has been there for many years. It's located near all the cemeteries. I've cried many many tears here. It's a great place to go to after burying people you loved. The staff is GREAT! I highly recommend this Bar!!

Great local Irish bar with a Mexican food truck in the parking lot . It is cash only with an ATM inside. Grab a Guinness pint and some Irish coffee when they open at 1am . Dog friendly.

Staff and everyone else there was extremely friendly. Fun atmosphere that’s laid back, and a nice old school bar feeling. I’d highly recommend. Keep in mind it’s cash only with an ATM.

It's a dive bar with a taco truck. Good but not frou frou beers. Liquor without fancy cocktails. Good, friendly, quick service. Cash only. Pool and shuffleboard tables in a slight state of decay. Perfect for what it's trying to be.

Typical dive bar, but enjoyable if you're cool with that sort of thing. The area at the bar is small and got crowded, but there's another larger room on the other side which has plenty of space. Drinks were good, a little higher priced than I'd expect. Cash only, and the men's restroom is a Porta potty outside.
