“We stopped in on a whim while traveling and we’re so glad we did! We met one of the owners and she explained the history! So interesting! Good, drinks and service were great! I highly recommend!“

“My first time experience here was amazing, my husband took us here on Valentine's Day and I was very impressed. I love how romantic and the vibe here was great! They had a DJ playing all the great old school hip hop. Their fixed course meal was amazing, more food than I expected, the servers were great even it was a busy night we still got checked on and if we edge doing fine, which is totally a big deal when it comes to customer service for me. I would love to try out their brunch one day !“

“Got there around 9 PM on a Tuesday, and as the evening progressed, the place got packed. Younger crowd, great vibes, good drink selection, moderate prices ($24 for 3 beers). Bartender was real quick even as the bar started picking up.Cash only wouldn’t have been a problem if we could’ve started a tab by with our credit cards or IDs as collateral.“

“Great owner! Great Staff! Comfortable surroundings! Gotta be there!!“

“Honestly, as a beginning patron at this establishment, I found the size and friendliness of this Irish pub substantially welcoming ??(that's a two thumbs up). Surviving the restrictions of covid, we all had to make allowances regarding dining. So getting there with some streets still blocked off in San Mateo(to better the businesses survival of our industries) it may take you a few twists and turns to get there so DON'T GIVE UP if your GPS tells you to take a turn and you find it has blockades... Just go another block or two down and you'll find yourself on the right street. Parking is a little strained... But the secret is there a little alley directly across the street from the front door and there's a number of slots avail at NO COST! On Tuesday nights they have an amazing kareoke event, but be prepared to get on the waiting list as my last experience it was pretty much packed... Which I dig cuz the audience participation was like a community. The bartender ALWAYS replaced your glass with a fresh chilled pint glass when you're trying one of their many flavors of draught on tap and was always on duty ready to serve his patrons. Friendly, warm and inviting. I take enjoyed myself and have returned since then. Prices are very fair. I suggest trying the Cali Squeeze on tap on a hot summer day. The essence of orange infused with a malt beverage is so refreshing on a warm day and doesn't seem so heavy when you're hot. I'll be returning.“

“Molly O's is a great spot for every meal, drinks, watching sports, live music and DJs. My favorite dishes are the Shepherd's Pie, Steak & Eggs, Fish & Chips and the NY Steak, and they regularly have various specials. The salads are also great! I have yet to have a meal that disappointed.
Fridays & Saturday nights get lit with the DJs, bands, and great crowds. 10/10 recommend!“

“Great venue for parties & just a nice place to have drinks. Beer selection is fabulous as is the atmosphere. McGoverns bartenders are fun friendly & helpful. There are numerous games to enjoy playing from table hockey, billiards, checkers, pinball, ect. If you walk in solo...you’ll find yourself with plenty of friendly people & conversation!“
