One of my favorite drinks in NOLA, the frozen irish coffee! To die for, seriously. I could drink them all day. A sweet treat for sure. Ambiance is cozy and never super packed. It just makes it even better that next door are $4 pizza slices (pretty good! worth the $4!) and you can eat it at the bar while you drink. I also had the Pims Tea which was pretty good and refreshing, especially if you like cucumber. I wish this was a hidden gem I could keep to myself, but i'll always recommend it. read more

Molly's Irish Pub - frozen irish coffee - Irish Pub Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I really don't like to leave negative reviews so know that. Twice now I've gone into that bar and with two different bartenders, I was treated like crap. not the kind of service you would expect from a bar near Bourbon Street. When I get off of work, which is normally pretty late there are a few bars open that late so I tried them a couple times but I won't be trying them again! I hope the bartender learns out to treat people nicely. I guess from now on I'll stick to sneaky Petes or the Abby. They're open 24 seven and you get much better service than at Molly's. Also there's a big old pothole right in front of the bar. That is dangerous. I rolled my ankle in front of the bar and hurt myself pretty bad. read more

Spike is such a friendly bartender. He made a special drink for my friend called a Beverly. We came back an hour later and he remembered how to make it read more

The frozen Irish coffee here is as famous as "café du Monde" . Everyone recommended this and it's a must try! What amazing treat!

My husband and I wanted to get off bourbon street and go to an Irish pub. Google led me straight to Molly's Irish pub. However, Yelp had listed it as being closed. Boo! Luckily google was right. I let the staff know about Yelp and they got it corrected. This is your typical dive bar as it's dark inside. There is cheap booze and magners on tap!! They have a pool table , TVs, and a few video games in the back. Overall a great place to enjoy drinks and relax. read more

Let me just say, one of the main reasons I went here is very obvious LOL. When you see a pub that adorns your first name, you go. I was super jazzed when my boyfriend pointed this place out, because Irish Pubs have a certain quaint charm about them that I really enjoy! Upon entering, we were pleasantly surprised with the chill vibe this place has -- it's very low key, relaxed and not super crowded. It's definitely less of a party bar and more of a local hang-out spot. Naturally, we both ordered a couple of Guinness beers and sat by the large fan they had blowing in the corner (refreshing). Too add a little touch of retro, they have a neat jukebox in the corner. Only thing is that they don't have locking bathrooms, although they did place signs on the doors that say "please knock" -- I could see this being an issue on a busy night as some people might be a little too tipsy to remember (or even read) the sign. Other than that, great bar and great service. I would definitely come back next time I'm around. read more

What was advertised. Guinness yeah, plastic cup was looking for Classen Irish. This does not fit the bill.

Great! They have a 50 cent pool table! Cheap beer, great service! Bartenders are friendly!

I ordered a whiskey and Lowe stared into soul. Like reading tea leaves she suggested an Irish Car Bomb a d I was immediately smitten. Can I give her 6 stars because that should be a thing. I left the bar thinking that she gets me and there should be a desert island somewhere for us but I know better.Maybe there's an island for you. read more

Great dive bar away from the action in the quarter or canal st. Mostly locals. Good place to have a more calm beer drinking experience before heading back into the general insanity that is mardi gras. read more

I've been coming to this bar for ... 7 years. That's the number I'm giving. It's between me and you, don't be a snitch. Everything about this place I love. The frozen irish coffee, the way american spirits flow through my lungs on the back patio, the way the urinal cake feels on my hand as I caress it while I potty. The price is right. The food I have not had. The atmosphere, and most importantly, the people - are 10/10. Now, you are probably thinking "Wow, this is a great bar! Sounds like I need to check it out". Shut up. You know nothing, swine. You simply play with your toys while looking at me, a Comicon Gypsy - wishing you could be like this. I bet you would LOVE to know the best part of this bar, wouldn't you? It is Corey. Corey the immersion nerd. Corey. Corey the cocktail soothsayer. Corey. Corey the promise-keeper. Corey makes this bar what it is. Sincerely, The Gif Princess Fan of all things Disney. read more

Dive bar; great for organizing a crew in close proximity to Bourbon Street. The bartender was kind of rude both nights I visited but half-assed an apology when I accrued a large tab on the second night (which is quite hard to do). read more

Ok so we are on our last day in New Orleans and we wanted to have a chilled last night and play some pool. When I walked in initially everything was fine, however when I proceeded to order drinks and tell the bartender that my wife was outside smoking so it will be a minute immediately she was basically trying to convince us to go to another bar. It was very uncomfortable it felt very unsafe. It was very apparent that she didn't want no gay people in the bar. We just wanted to pay a few games of pool and then leave but the whole vibe was off. I'm a bartender we are suppose to make our guest comfortable and that's the opposite what she made us feel. So horrible !! If you not LGBTQ friendly just say that !!! read more

As much as I hate doing negative reviews, I feel the need to just complain about this. So, me and 6 friends walked into here, place was completely empty. From the minute we walked in, the blond bartender was just being the biggest B I have ever met. I have absolutely no idea why she took offense to us as we just ordered our drinks, one guy ordered a half & half...as its an Irish pub, to which she got pissed he didnt order it as a Black and Tan. Next thing, she got pissed because our pregnant friend didnt want to order anything, next, I was standing in the wrong spot...The Bartender has some serious issues..Next she's screaming at us that she's made a lot of money tonight and didn't need our business. Then we were somehow deemed racist and told that we don't respect the culture of New Orleans. I can only hope She's the reason the bar is temporarily closed, as several guys in the group were 20 year regulars who have vowed to never return. read more

Molly's has the most delicious frozen coffee drink I've ever had. I would drink this every day. The bartender was engaging and attentive. The bar was clean. I will visit Molly's every time I come to NOLA. read more

Popped in for a drink after seeing their sidewalk sign boasting a Butterscotch Old Fashioned. I'm from Ky so I had to. Fun little New Orleans honky tonk. Jukebox never stops. Pool table is open. I'm terrible. But the Old Fashioned was great. $10 and a cool spot to rest a bit. read more

Michelle was an awesome bartender and took care of my partner when I was getting my cards read at glass magic.

Love to love Molly's on Toulouse. BTW, This is not a "restaurant" unless you consider snack-size bags of Funyuns and Cheez-It's restaurant food. It is however, a great little Irish dive oasis right off Bourbon with $5.50 carbombs and cheap drinks. Great place if you want to hang with some locals, awesome real bartenders and get away from Bourbon Street experience. Love the big open windows. Makes you feel better about sitting in a dark bar on a sunny day! If your idea of a good time is hand-grenades, jello shots, Top 40 music or fruity frozen drinks, this is not your place. read more

Love this place! Was just there 6/18/2021-6/20/2021! It's off a side street on bourbon! Nice place to stop and grab a beer ($4). They will even give you a to-go cup. Some bars on bourbon are $10 for a beer so this is a huge win!!! Women's bathroom is fairly clean for such a high traffic area. I seen the bartender check in it 2X one night to ensure it was clean! It's a great pre-game spot or if you just need a break from bourbon ! They also have a pool table. Very chill place ! read more

Cool bar; however, getting rid of the jukebox and the corresponding silences that come as a result of its inactivity would do wonders.

I have great memories ducking into this place with friends after a pouring rain that involves snakes, Irish car bombs and the Big Lebowski. The environment is dark and moody. Many locals come here and you will enjoy that fact alone before you even order a drink. You will also enjoy the Irish punk metal blaring from the jukebox. Or the odd variety showing in the television set. This place is a Must when visiting the Bourbon street area. read more

Jenna is the best bartender! I love this bar, good drinks, great juke box! Again, Jenna rocks! I love this place!

Good local dive with a pool table. Good service. $6 pints is a bit pricy, but it is just off Bourbon Street. It's dark, cool, and spacious inside. read more

Isha is a great bartender, maybe the best in New Orleans. Great drinks and atmosphere

This place has become one of my stops while in NOLA lately. Why? It's divey, with seats at the bar, some tables in front of the window, and a pool table. Usually not packed, at least when I have been there. Thus, I can sidle up to the bar, sit down, and get a drink while resting outside of all the chaos that is Bourbon. It's always been excellent service when I am there anyway. The bartender lasses are friendly but also aren't going to take any shit off anyone either. WOOHOO! I love a more laid-back jam sometimes and Molly's has it (sometimes)! read more

We slipped into this place on Friday around 5ish during FQ Fest. Needed a bathroom and it looked like the perfect place to have a beer and chill away from the crowds. We sat there by the window for a long time. Drinking a glass of Abita and talking. I really like this place. We went back last Saturday while just walking around the FQ. Again, quiet but not too quiet. Chatty locals and non locals. We sat by the opened window again and people watched, drank and talked. There's a jukebox with Acid Bath as an option.... talk about blast from the past! There's also a pool table. Ladies, the bathroom is small but clean. No hooks for a purse (I'm on a mission to change this). read more

This is what I call the "other Molly's", not because it's inferior, but because I am more familiar with the one by the French Market and started going to that one first. Product: Drinks, drinks, and more drinks! They have the same magical frozen Irish coffee as the other location (in fact, I'm pretty sure all of the Moynihan chain has them), so it's a done deal if I'm walking in this place. There are large and small, and both priced at a good value. The other drinks in the place won't burn a hole in your pocket, either. I know the other Molly's has a food counter, but I'm not sure on at this one. 4 stars Service: Friendly service, but nothing outstanding. 3 stars Facilities: Yet another dive to add to your list if that's your thing. Like most places in the FQ, downstairs is the business, upstairs is either storage or apartments. The structure is likely 200 years old, or thereabouts, so, yes, it has a rather "tired" look to it. But, hey, this is a dive, what did you expect? Street parking where you can find it, and bike racks are mysteriously rare in this neighborhood, which makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever (no the business' fault, of course, but noting). There are stools at the bar, and a coin-op pool table. Bathrooms are a little rough. 2 stars Overall: Definitely add this to your dive bar list. It is worth stopping at, as the crowds are less dense than other bars, and you *really should* try that frozen Irish coffee sometime. 3 stars read more

This is most definitely NOT Molly's at the Market, which is over-hyped in my opinion. It's also not a restaurant, but instead a relaxed, well-stocked tiny sports bar/Irish pub with one pool table that we frequented almost every day during a week-long stay in New Orleans. The best part about this hidden gem? A bartendress called Jaye. She was sweet, remembered our names, and since we'd been stopping by all week, she pointed us out and served us first on New Years Eve, when trying to get a drink can be a real hassle. read more

Our experience in New Orleans was that the Irish pubs on the French Quarter tend to be havens for real people. We found Molly's to be one of the best.We were steered here by the bartender at another place who indicated that, late in the evening, this is a place where people in the food industry hang out after hours. The place is punky Irish with metal music blaring from the jukebox. In contrast, the tv over the bar was tuned to an old black and white movie on TMC. I love that. Molly's is a great pub with friendly staff and awesome Irish Car Bombs. Stop in to get away from the tourists and meet some cool people! read more

Awesome chill quiet place amidst the craziness of NOLA to get some beer and play pool.

"I'll have to close your tab, it's 6AM" Yes, those are the words I heard on my first visit to Molly's! This place is a perfect dive bar, dark, cool music on the jukebox, a pool table, TCM on the TV and when I was there, the Christmas tree, decorated with Mardi Gras lights was still up. Nice to find a local hangout and the vibe was ultra relaxed. I don't really know if many tourists stumble in here or not, but this place reminded me of my own local dives back home. A definite must, if you're looking for a reasonably priced drink in a non Bourbon Street type of atmosphere. read more

First off let me say that I love Irish Pubs. Molly's doesn't have a very "Irish pub" feel but it is a pretty good little dive bar right off of Bourbon. We enjoyed a few drinks there the morning of our return flight home. The bar was mostly empty while we were there but that actually made the experience enjoyable. The drink prices were reasonable and the beer selection good. It was nice and cool inside and the bar had a decent jukebox. We frequent NOLA often and I'm sure we be back in Molly's Iris Pub. read more
