Molly's was a nice place to grab lunch and a nice glass of wine with a friend. We both got the potato leek soup which was a little bland. The service was very good. And the atmosphere was well, it's a pub so it was exactly what you'd expect. It was afternoon when we were there so it was quiet but it appears to be one of those places where people could hang out on a regular basis and enjoy the company of friends in a very pleasant place. read more

Food was hit or miss. Onion rings overcooked to the point of being mush inside the very dark battered shell. Scotch eggs were flavorless and rubbery. Chili was so nasty that after four bites it was pushed away. They cleared it off the table without asking why it wasnt eaten or asking how the food was. Fish was not as listed, batter wasnt, it was a panko covering not a bear batter as listed on the menu. Though it looked over cooked the fish itself was nice and tender and flakey. Left 10%tip because the service was bare minimum. Very disappointing indeed. Where othe patrons that were seated were receiving quite a bit of service from the staff aswe were ignored. We had to hunt them down to get our check. Wont be returning. read more

We are always excited to try a new Irish pub, because my wife loves fish and chips and I love a good Ruben. We ordered our faves and a side of chili. Well today was not my day. The fish and chips were really good, but the Ruben...when I took the first bite and couldn't chew through the brisket, I knew I was in trouble. I deconstructed it and the whole thing was like shoe leather. You just can't serve a Ruben like that and you had to know as you were cramping up as you were trying to saw through it. The chili was ehh at best. The waitstaff and the fish and chips were the saving grace. read more

I recently went here with two friends on a Sunday afternoon and thought that Molly's Irish Pub was a solid, average sports bar: lots of TVs showing NFL games, standard bar food, Irish and sports decorations on the walls, wood paneling, and adequate service. We shared the pretzels, which were fine, and I got wings with BBQ sauce and blue cheese (uncommon to find and deeply appreciated), which were decent. I would recommend Molly's Irish Pub if you are in the area and are looking for a place to watch sports-otherwise, there are better food options nearby. read more

It's been quite a long while since I've been to Molly's. Today my daughter and I had a great lunch. Sheet pan nachos and we split a steak and cheese sub with fries. Nachos were A+. Toppings were plentiful and on every chip. Jalapeños were on point! I'm picky about steak and cheese subs but I agreed to a split plate. Oh man....it was full of meat and cheese. Super good and the fries were actually some if the best fries ever Well seasoned and came out sizzlin' hot. Dipping in ranch. A hit outta the park!!! read more

This will be short: poor service, warm beer, and when I confirmed the server and the woman behind the bar, they said it was the best they could do. Told them to do better. Very poor attitude from servers. Used to patron the place frequently even though we live in Fredericksburg. Was glad to go to the place across the street with our party of 10. read more

sucks because I really enjoy the food + drinks but they're always closing their kitchens early, it would be officiant and nice to have a consistent time as you never know if or when they close. read more

Great service, got an outside table without following the instructions to check in at bar thanks to the waitress clearing the table. Onion rings and the first round of drinks arrived quickly. Sandwiches followed as soon as the last onion ring went down. It was a beautiful Saturday evening with Main Street blocked off to traffic. read more

Great food and love the way they kept it old, antique. So many places in old town are being redone and 'upgraded'! The wait staff have great memories for orders and keep your drinks filled. They are dog friendly too. read more

As you can see I last visited here pre-COVID for fun day Sunday. Since it was Sunday today my family and I decided to return here again for the first time post-COVID for lunch. Unfortunately, they no longer offered their fun day Sunday service. I was disappointed. I started with and enjoyed their spicy margarita with lunazul blanco, muddled with lime, sour and jalapenos for $9. Molly recommended their tender beef Guinness Irish Stew with carrots, onions and fresh herbs over mash for $14. I was disappointed because the beef was far from tender. The beef was over cooked, tough and chewy. I had to cut the large chunks of beef in half to eat them. I would not recommend this meal. I ended my meal with my favorite draft Guinness for $7. Molly C. served our table well. My total bill was $71 less gratuities. There are so many other better restaurants in downtown Warrenton, which I would recommend over this place. I will likely not return here to eat, however, I may return for a draft Guinness. read more

Welcoming environment. Great and efficient service. Good food. Definitely made the list to return to.

Ever had someone try to snow the Snowman? I was born at night, just not last night, it was 61 years ago. Furthermore, i have 20 years of experience in the foodservice industry. If I could, I would give minus stars: There was a litany of issues and here they are: 1. The pretzel was not a pretzel, it was baked cheap bread 2. The beer Cheese was warmed up honey mustard dressing 3. The server actually tried to explain that it is cheese sauce with cider vinegar. There was no cheese in this lukewarm mess of a dressing. We ate 3 bites and gave up on this mess of a dish. 4. We ordered soup and sandwich to split between wife and me. Let's address the soup first. Potato-leek soup, it was lukewarm and curdled. The potatoes in the soup looked brownish in color, meaning they are either super old or you used leftover baked potatoes. We did not touch the soup. The sandwich was also luke warm, the cheese was melted and it looked ok, until you took a bite and realized it was super greasy and they used butter flavored Oil to saute the sandwich. Lastly, the attitude of the server: You had no idea who is sitting in front of you so why would you make up a story about the cheese sauce? I know the difference between slurry and roux, meaning I know a bit about cooking. Then, when we voiced our displeasure about our experience, the server actually gets rude with my wife. I am sorry, management was not on the floor, service was mediocre and food was BAD. It made us feel like we ran into a tourist trap. And we come to that strip often. Sad state of affairs..... read more

You can't beat this venue, especially on Saturday with music on main street! Everyone was raving about the burgers, and the drinks were stiff. Its everything you want in an Irish pub and more. read more

My favorite place to eat. My son loves their food and he's a picky eater. The back is more family oriented. People are always friendly.

First time visiting Molly's & group was pleased. Fish & Chips & Fish Tacos were a hit as was the Grown Up Grilled Cheese. Fries & Fish were crispy & Tarter Sauce was very tasty. Coke Slaw was well dressed (not too sour or sweet). We did mot care for the Steak/Cheese but we are not sure why (either cheese or garlic aioli). Service was quick: Server was pleasant & helpful. Will definitely return & recommend to friends. Atmosphere is nice, just a little dark (which is perfect for a Pub). read more

I lived around these parts for 4 years about 15 years ago, so it had been quite some time since visiting Molly's. We decided to grab a seat when after a Hobby shop trip, Baby Rock Star requested a burger. Molly's has adequate outdoor seating (added a hip edge to this country town spot!) and a friendly vibe. I had a grey goose and soda with a simple salad no dressing--followers know me) and Baby had his burger complete with fresh, lightly fried potatoes (okay. I tried 1. Or 5). Perfect. He devoured his burger which looked to be pretty perfect (I'm a vegetarian, do didn't try that). My drink was delightful and as a New Yorker accustomed to NYC and Miami Beach prices, it's always a treat to pay a normal freakin' price for a drink! Our server was friendly and helpful...easybreezyWeezy. Country afternoon for City mice. Love Molly's. read more

Just don't! Stopped in on way to dc was looking forward to pub experience. Sadly we couldn't get waited on in spite of establishing eye contact with multiple staff members who were distracted rolling napkins over cutlery vs serving potential patrons! Walked out after extended wait good news great establishment Denim and Pearls across street! read more

Went to this place tonight and the lady working the bar was beyond rude. My group sat at a table outside and after 15 minutes of no service, we went inside to see if we could get a menu to order food and drinks. The bartender stated that outside seating needs to be seated by the hostess (which was not apparent) but said she'd let the waitress know we're waiting. I asked the bartender numerous times for a menu. Every time I tried to talk to her, she walked away while I was in mid-sentence. She needs to be fired. The venue was not busy at all. Th waitress eventually came to our table and provided the ever so illusive menus. After 15 minutes, she did not return and we left. Overall, this is some of the worst service I've ever had and this place needs to reevaluate their staff and process. read more

Great spot! I've been here a few times and this last time I had the meatloaf. The service was very good and the drinks were very good. I do wish there were some more TVs in the back since I really couldn't see the game from our table. read more

Burgers were good; fries were tasty. Service was slow. It took us close to an 1- 1/2 to order sandwiches, get food, and bill. We were never offered refills. Dirty appetizer plates remained in the table until we left. Our server disappeared on us and after 20 minutes, we had to ask someone else for the bill. Our server had been sitting at another table eating and drinking that entire time. Totally understand they need breaks, but make sure your tables are covered. read more

Small portions and very expensive. Wouldn't recommend to anyone Fish and Chips, pint of Ginuss

The food is OK but the bathroom at least the women's is gross. It's very dirty there was no toilet paper. The counter is cracked. The soap is leaking. A single piece of tile is covering an obvious hole in the wall. It's pretty awful on the other hand there white wines are decent. read more

Stopped in a few weeks ago after a birthday party with our 3 year old son and my Wife. It was quite busy for 3 in the afternoon. The beer list was nice. However, I decided to order just Bud Light with a lime. The ambiance of the pub was typical of most Irish pubs. A lot of wood and older memorabilia. Many of the passing entrees and appetizers looked good. Due to the fact that we had just left a pizza party, only I ordered food. Trying to be in and out, I ordered the Pretzels. They were very good. Had to share with my son because if a 3 year old says hes not hungry, be prepared to share your food. The accompanying sauce/dip I did not really like. It just wasnt very flavorful, so I requested honey mustard. The honey mustard was awesome. Im not sure if it was homemade or off the US Food truck but it woke up my wifes stomach and then I not only had to share with my 3 year old but my wife as well. We actually asked for a side to go to take home with us that paired nicely with a homemade cheese plate I made a few days later. Mollys is fun and has good food. read more

This is probably a better bar than a place to eat lunch. It's very dark...low light and dark furniture. I was doing some work in our Warrenton office and went here for lunch. I had the corned beef Ruben, with fries and cole slaw.It was OK, nothing too special. I might consider going back for a night out at the bar on St Pat's.Which comes just once a year. They have live Irish music on the weekends. read more

The food gets 4 stars - the service gets 3 My husband ordered the Irish stew and I ordered the southwest chicken salad. He really loved the stew and I was pleasantly surprised by the salad. It needed more dressing but I couldn't catch the attention of the waiter so I ate it regardless, and it was still quite flavorful. They didn't have very many Irish items on the menu in my opinion. The lure here is certainly the bar. But for a pub the food was still good. Moderate prices, generous portions. We don't drink so I can't make any comments about the alcohol or bartender. Bathroom smelled terrible but appeared very clean. The waiter was nice but dreadfully slow and the place was empty, he was waiting only one other table. Never got a refill on my water. Took forever to get to go boxes and the check. We would have ordered dessert had we not had to wait so painfully long to get his attention. But we will probably come again, despite the poor service. Worth stopping by. read more

Stopped by while visiting downtown Warrenton. The first thing I noticed was people smoking right outside the door and the smoke wafting inside, which is off putting. My wife raved about the Irish stew and the fish and chips, which I will admit were very tasty. The chips (fries) were very good. While I did enjoy the cottage pie served in a little cast iron skillet, it was a bit too salty for me. The service was excellent and I am looking forward to returning to explore the rest of the menu. read more

Probably the best bar food in Warrenton me and my partner went there today, literally the best fried pickles I've ever had. MUST TRY

I went here last May to see the Canadian Celtic group Searson perform. I was by myself - after they seated me, I went to the restroom. Upon my return, they had moved me, farther away from the performance area - with some claim that they had already reserved that table for someone else. I ordered the Caesar salad and the buffalo wings. Both were pretty good. While I was eating, my waiter came over and told me that his manager had asked him to approach me to see if they could move me again. When I asked "to where?" - they wanted to move farther away from the music - they would compensate me by buying me a couple of beers. I told them no thanks. When Searson came out to perform, it was hard to see them from where I was sitting off to the side. More annoying was the block of tables up front that were reserved - the vast majority of the folks were sitting there yakking away throughout the performance and were not paying attention to the music. Why even bother to reserve a good table for a music performance if you are just going to talk throughout the evening? The second time I visited Molly's - was this past September - again to see Searson perform. This time my dining and overall experience was much better. And there was no cover charge this time. I had the Grilled Salmon Ceasar Salad, an order of Buffalo Wings, and several pints of a red ale I've never tried before and darn if I can remember the name - but it was good! read more

The. Worst. The only reason I come here is because they are one of the few full service bars in the area. By full service I mean a full rail, not actual service. The service is beyond bad. The bartenders are notoriously rude and the servers change like underwear. Anyone who stays working there is jaded and rude. read more
