Reviews
I took my friend to Molly Mc’s for their bottomless brunch to celebrate his birthday after hearing so many good things about it, and we were really looking forward to it. We had a two-hour booking and were seated within 5–10 minutes of opening. The food and drinks arrived quickly, and our server, Sydney, couldn’t have been more helpful. She was friendly, attentive, and even brought us extra sauce for our spice bag without any fuss, which was much appreciated. The food itself was really enjoyable, but there were a couple of things that stopped it from being a five-star experience. Firstly, the music was incredibly loud. My friend and I could barely hear each other across the table and ended up shouting for around an hour. I don’t mind background music and appreciate a lively atmosphere, but this was a little too much. Secondly, we were asked for our last drinks around 30 minutes before the end of our two-hour slot, which made it feel like we didn’t quite get the full bottomless brunch experience. It wasn’t a huge issue, but it was a little disappointing. Overall, we still had a lovely time, the food was great, and Sydney’s excellent service really stood out. If you enjoy a lively, energetic venue with loud music, you’ll probably love it. For us, turning the volume down just a notch would have made the experience even better.
Had a great experience here yesterday. It was nice and cool inside, which was a concern when it was 30 degrees outside! There were 6 in our group and we all chose the spice bag which was lovely, so many chips! The staff were so hard working and friendly, our glasses were kept topped up for the full 90 minutes. The band were fabulous and the atmosphere was fantastic. A slick operation, really efficient and well run. All in all we had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Molly Mcs.
Visited yesterday for the bottomless brunch. Had a great time, service was first class and the food. We had spicebag and the fried rice, both were really good, recommend the fried rice. Guinness was good and being bottomless had a few. The other drinks in the list were also being served, had a couple of Spicy Margs these also very nice. Also dog friendly our 2 had a great time meeting lists of people and the friendly staff. All in all a great afternoon, place was full and the band were excellent. Give it go, you'll not be disappointed. You can stay on after and have a karaoke booth to keep the party going...
We came on a busy Thursday night for some drinks and food. Between the three of us, we got the chicken spice bag (so good, a must order), the chicken green curry (the vegetables were overcooked and the curry lacked kick), chicken and prawn drunken noodles (noodles were uncooked and flavour wasn't right), duck stir fry with rice (decent). I'd probably just come for drinks and the spice bag next time!
Great pint and the best spice bag I've ever had. The spice bag chips and chicken packed so much flavour and the curry sauce was the cherry on the top. I saw that they do a bottomless brunch that includes unlimited Guinness so I'd definitely doing that soon.
