The Molly House

About The Molly House

Tucked away on Richmond Street in the Gay Village, this is a small, characterful tapas bar where the rustic, vintage-y interior feels more relaxed pub than restaurant — and the staff are the kind who chat happily, make good recommendations and once went out of their way to rework a dish around an allergy. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, plus a first-floor bar with a little terrace if you want air and space for a pram. Four small plates between two adults is genuinely plenty: patatas bravas, padrón peppers, slow-cooked pork cheeks and the meat sharing board all get raved about, and there are vegan options too. Prices are fair for the quality. It is properly tiny, though — Friday and Saturday nights need booking, and one visitor found it "popular for the food, the beers and the chilled vibe".
