Meant to be 5 stars. Now open for dinner too. Had best chicken fried steak with Panko breading. Meat was very tasty and not any gristle and didn't shrink back from the breading. Cole slaw was fresh with added touch of dried cranberries. Wife ha chicken and avocado quesadilla and very pleased with flavor and amount of filling. Service was great, very courteous, priced reasonably. Overall was a great end of long day in Rocky Mountain national park and a relief after dealing with too many locals and tourists who had too much to drink or smoke now that it is legal. read more

Went there when it wasn't busy. The waitress took a long time to come and get our order. After we received our food my hamburger was still really pink. The waitress never came back to see how the food was. Then when she brought the check she asked if I wanted a box. I told her I didn't want a box and explained that she wouldn't be receiving a tip because of the poor service and under cooked burger. Still paid for the burger that I didn't eat. Child's chicken tenders were over cooked. Won't go back. I would give this zero stars. read more

Just an average place we stopped in for breakfast. Nothing special except no lines or wait times. The service was excellent. The food, not so much. Standard fare. Hopefully we won't be back...but at least there was no wait. read more

I really should have trusted my instinct when I considered walking back out once seated at Molly B. We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning. There were no other customers in the place and it seemed very dated and dingy. The menu had very few options but I found something basic and ordered. A few bites into my pancakes, I noted that they seemed rather crunchy and then I found the reason when I identified nuts in the pancakes! The menu did not list nuts as an ingredient for this dish so I felt safe ordering the pancakes though I am allergic (I am diligent about reading menu ingredients to steer clear of anything with nuts due to my allergy). I asked someone on the staff if there were nuts in there and he confirmed and seemed rather surprised that it would be an issue, very nonchalant about it ("of course there are nuts" was the look on his face). He and the waitress offered to bring me something else but I had lost my appetite and was done, just wanted to leave. I used the restroom while my husband paid the bill. What an adventure! I had to go downstairs to the basement using some very dilapidated stairs that looked like they would fall apart any day and then found the bathroom. It looked like it had not been cleaned since the pandemic began! All in all, just awful! I can't believe they can stay in business and have no health code violations!! read more

Molly B is a good traditional diner with traditional diner food. I was here on a nice sunny afternoon for lunch. I had a bacon cheese burger with fries. The food is fresh and the wait staff is attentive. They also have a good size patio which is dog friendly. The unexpected surprise is the very good selection of well liquor if you desire a cocktail with your meal. I'd give this place 3.5 stars. read more

Fantastic breakfast! Love, love, love the eggs Benedict with chorizo! Friendly service & delicious food. This is my dad's favorite place & we drive a hour each way just to come here. read more

I should have read the reviews before going. Lunchtime in July, which is the peak of the season, and it was the biggest waste of a $50 lunch for two I've ever spent. From the service to the food, it was terrible. Here's the warning I wish I would have read. read more

Had breakfast here on a beautiful sunny day. The outdoor seating area is great. Staff was friendly. Had the focaccia sandwich with egg and sausage and it was exactly what I needed. I'd definitely recommend this place for breakfast. read more

Molly B Restaurant - Foccacia Sandwich. - American Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

Good value for a heavy tourist location, the salad was excellent (sub grilled for fried chicken), waitress was attentive & friendly, and she even brought a bowl of water for my thirsty dogs who were welcomed on the front outdoor patio. Easy parking at the free public lot across the street. read more

First impressions are great, and Lana made a great one with us. She was very sweet and super friendly. Food was pretty good. Portions pretty big. We will return. read more

Molly B's has a great selection of food from american to mexican and no matter what ice ordered ive enjoyed. It's very affordable, casual setting. My favorite is the gyro but on a cold day their soup can always be counted on as well! read more

We started to go to a more advertised restaurant. The place was packed. Got in the car and went to Molly's. Super friendly. Food doesn't knock your socks off but it is actually really good. Prices were in line. read more

Is this place closed or just undergoing renovation? This is our go-to breakfast place when we visit Estes Park. So disappointed to find it closed when we stopped by today. read more

Food was good, not outstanding but good. My child who is super picky actually ate her food, so that's a plus!

I disagree with the low reviews. I ate here for breakfast and thought it was quite good. They serve classic diner food for a fair price. Service was good and the food was served within a few minutes. Coffee was refilled several times on the house. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant. Many people ate there and it seemed popular. I would go to Molly Bs again. read more

Very disappointed with the service here. There were only four tables when we came in and the waitress just seemed to be out in her own little world. The food was okay. They were out of things on the menu and the waitress messed up our orders. Will not be going back here when we visit Estes Park in the future. read more

Where do I even begin? I was recently in Estes Park, Colorado with my family and we were in downtown Estes and wanted to stop somewhere for lunch. We all stopped at Molly B's and may I just say it was the worst service and food I have ever ate and experienced. Our waiters' name was Vickie and she was absolutely the worst. She forgot one person of our party food and when we would ask her she would say one minute and the 45 minutes would past and would we still not have the food. She only checked on how we were doing twice the entire time we were there. The only thing she would do was keep bringing us drinks and that was it even when we didn't want any refills: The salads that we ordered were a Caesar and an Apple Walnut. They were almost inedible. The chicken on the Caesar was not done it was purple and just plain gross. For the Apple Walnut the dressing was a Red Wine Vinaigrette and it tasted like water and oil. Lastly, when we wanted the check we had to literally walk up to her and ask for it and then we later figured out that she didn't know how to get the check. It was honestly the worst experience and meal we have ever experienced. Unfortunately, we will not be returning back to Molly B's in the future when we return to Estes Park. read more

Molly B Restaurant - American Near Me - Estes Park, Colorado

This is the worst place my husband and I have ever eaten. I have never written a review before, but after paying $40 for a terrible lunch two days ago I just can't get it off my mind. The setting is beautiful and the service is good - it's the food that's terrible. To start, we ordered the jalapeño poppers that the menu said were "hand stuffed with our own cream cheese". When the plate came, they were the exact same frozen poppers we usually buy at Costco! They are cheddar filled (not cream cheese) and were not even warm in the middle. At this point we would have left but we had already ordered our entrées so we got stuck. My French dip sandwich was quite obviously packaged lunch meat on a hoagie. And my husband's "elk" burger was a frozen hamburger patty that had been heated. I felt like I could have purchased our entire lunch in the processed food section at Costco for less than what we paid at Molly B. The rest of the day, every place we walked by we said "I bet their food is better than Molly B's" including Taco Bell! Do not recommend at all. read more

Went here for dinner because we were traveling with our dog and needed a pet friendly patio (not so easy to find in Estes Park these days). The menu was sub par and the food about the same. Perhaps sticking with a burger would have been better. I had what the menu called "fresh wings" from the appetizer menu - nothing special here. I'd guess these were previously frozen; they were dry, barely meaty and mostly flavorless. The sauce was poured over the top vs tossed and the blue cheese and ranch dressings were blah. My husband had the trout served with rice and veggies. Again, nothing that great. College bar food is the best description either of us can give. Not bad, not great. If you need a place to go because you are with your dog, this serves the purpose but otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. read more

Indifferent service. Probably 3 tables of customers, we had to go find our server 3 times (we were only ones outdoors). No drink refills until i had already asked for check. Flat soft drinks. Encouraged to sit outside even tho no one was inside, outside tables about 6 ' from noisiest hwy in Estes Park. There are much better places for a lunch in this town. read more

We came here for breakfast and it was FANTASTIC. The flap jacks are huge and rich and very fluffy. The staff was very friendly and even brought our dog a cold bowl of water and a milk bone. Very highly recommend this place for breakfast! read more

AVOID Molly B's! When we arrived, there was a conspicuous absence of customers. I chalked it up to the street construction, and my honey and I pressed on. We ordered the jalapeno poppers for an appetizer, which, when they arrived, were far too uniform appearing to have been made in-house. The plus point was the chipotle dipping sauce. When our burgers arrived - hers the mushroom-Swiss, mine the guacamole-bacon, I noticed an odd odor from mine. There was something a bit off about the smell, which should've alerted me to a potential problem with the meat, or the possibility that it wasn't ground beef after all, but being very hungry, I ate it. My dear friend ate about 2/3 of hers before stopping after encountering a pea-sized lump of an unknown gristly substance. After a couple of hours, we felt as if we'd eaten rocks; lunch was sitting heavily with us. While mild, the symptoms that we incurred were nonetheless disturbing, and lasted into the next morning. From reading some of the other reviews, I think that we got off lucky. Bottom line: The food is Very overpriced, the stairway down to the restrooms is a hazard to navigation, and one would do well to stay away from Molly B's. read more

The food was borderline average and extremely overpriced. I got the "healthy" plate. The chicken was almost room temperature and the deep fried shrimp was cooked too long and was crispy. The sides were mediocre. Not a place I will eat at again. read more

What a fun place!! We had a group of 11 and the staff had no problem accommodating us. We were served promptly and the food was great! Most of us had burgers that were delicious! Fries were great as well and lots of them! Our waitress was friendly, courteous and did a great job on refills, extra sauces, more napkins..... They had live entertainment and he was quite impressive! Everyone in our group, from 2 yrs - 70+, had a wonderful time singing along and chair dancing! He was supposed to off at 2:30, but stayed on past 3pm! We look forward to our next visit to Molly B! read more

I don't know how good the food is because we never got any. It took ten minutes to get water. We were one of three tables so it was not busy. We had to ask for refills and even then it was hard to find a waitress. After waiting 30 minutes the couple who arrived at least 10 minutes after us was served. We commented to the hostess who ignored the comment. We walked out at that point. read more

I can't tell you how the food is, but I can review the service. My wife, 2 children and I went into Molly B's on a not too busy morning at about 8:30. We waited at the host station for 10 minutes before being seated (no one else at the station) and then sat at our table for 15 minutes before leaving. No one contacted us at the table, ever. There was two other full tables in the restaurant. Not only do they not care about customers, but they also seem to be allergic to money. read more

Spent the day hiking and decided to get some food in town before returning to our camp site. It was early afternoon and the place was empty. We ordered the nachos which weren't too bad but nothing spectacular. Our waitress brought out some sour cream and guacamole with our plate as well. Service wasn't the best-we had to keep asking for a refill on our water. When the bill arrived, i noticed we were charged extra for the guac-the menu didn't even list these items and our waitress never asked if we wanted them. It's a huge pet peeve of mine when restaurants pull this kind of stuff, so not recommending this one. read more

Beware. We were looking for a dog friendly place and wound up at Molly Bs. The waiter didn't know what processed meat was not hoppy beer. Soup came without spoons. These are forgivable offenses. However two hours after leaving my stomach started to feel off. Three hours later I had full blown vomiting food poisoning. Other diners in my party felt slightly ill as well but stayed away from the salad. They were wiser than I. If for some reason you end up at this restaurant AVOID the salad. Better yet, just avoid the place if you don't want to end up with a case of Molly Barf read more

delicious buffalo and elk burgers, cooked to order; great seasoned fries and 5-star service, and the hospitality was comforting; made us feel special, and left feeling good about our estes park experience. thanks molly b's for the great food and service!!!!! read more

Nope. Just nope. We were 1 of 2 seated tables and our food took 35+ minutes. My gusband ordered a beer and it came in the bottle (no problem) with a hot (out of the dishwasher hot) glass. Very basic menu. I was about to pay for our sodas and leave because our meals took so long. I wish I could have rated this as zero stars. read more

pretty expensive food i think. i oredered half waffle for almost $4 just coz i felt like esting something sweet for breakfast. my husband ordered steak and eggs and the steak was too salty!. oh kids pancake was pretty expensive too! read more

You got be kidding me. We had a great lunch quessadilla reubens were great and reasonable. Try it and you eill like. Service was good as well read more

We were there a couple of weeks ago and I understand that it's the height of the summer season but there were no croissants for the sandwiches. And the food was just ok. read more

Best hangover cure of a brunch I have had since Chicago. Blood Mary's are not very fancy, but did the trick. Their chef specials are amazing (most come with champagne hollandaise sauce, YUM!) and very cheap, leaving so much room for drinks on your tab. I will continue to bring visiting guests to this place, especially when a night had been had. read more

We had lunch at Molly B's because we wanted to try a different restaurant. We are sorry that we didn't stick with one of our regular spots. The food was very overpriced. We paid $4.95 for a bowl of Kraft Mac & Cheese on the kids' menu - no sides, drink not included - I could buy 4 whole boxes of Kraft Mac for that! My other daughter's grilled cheese sandwich was burned. My cheesy-potato soup was mediocre and the 2 slices of French bread for which I paid extra, had been microwaved and had a tough, chewy texture. My husband got an elk burger, which tasted like it had been frozen and the texture seemed to be machine-made, rather than hand-patted. The skimpy sprinkling of cheddar cheese on top of the burger cost $1 extra. The waitress didn't bring his side salad until he was 2/3 done with his burger. The waitress was nice enough when she made her rare appearances - it took us 10 minutes to get her to bring us a spoon for my daughter's overpriced mac & cheese. This restaurant was a poor value for poor food with mediocre service and a shoddy atmosphere. We will not be back. read more
