they welcome you with warm-colored lights, have many kinds of drinks (beers too), traditional foods are awesome, they make you feel like you're not in Japan but they politely offer you Japanese-style service with smiles. Moreover, the customers that you can make friends with come from all over the world. No matter if you're Asian, North American, Latino, European or... More

This is a good, traditional bar that has a decent range of beers on tap and varied menu. It doesn't fall into the trap of many by overplaying the Irish angle but is instead just a good place to relax and get a bite to eat. When I was there it seemed to be catering as much for locals as... More

The atmosphere and beer selection are great. It definitely feels like Irish Pub in the heart of Hiroshima. But the food seems a bit pricey for what it is. It also wasn't that good. I ordered Irish Stew and it was more like hot broth with few chunks of lamb with potato and carrot and the bread serviced with it... More

The main course was very nice, I had the Fish and Chips and it was well cooked and a decent size portion (I had the medium size rather than large). The place isn't that big and so the table we were at was a bit small to eat at but no big deal. The atmosphere was nice, no loud music... More

Great atmosphere, range of beers and pretty good food. Used to be full of more ex pats when Ford was in Hiroshima. Pretty quiet now. Must see view from men's toilets

Well who would think that in the middle of the restaurant district in Hiroshima Japan you would find an Irish Pub..... Well here is it... Had a black and tan with no problems... then went for the fish and chips and WOW.... the small helping was more then enough to eat!! Hats off to the owners for this little gem!

There's something about a British Pubs that makes you feel as if you're "home" regardless of the country you're in! Molly Malone's is no exception. The staff is incredibly friendly, food is good and drinks are plentiful. Side note: Molly's Med Cafe is also great. We routinely stop by there for the kebabs. The atmosphere is comfortable.

My family stopped by Molly Malone's for dinner, based on reviews that were out here on TripAdvisor. I had originally placed a review out here, but needed to edit that original review a bit. We had great luck with the appetizers- delicious, and of good size. We did not have as much luck with the main entree part. I ordered... More

Give this place a try if you like "real" Irish Pubs and good drat beer. Mark (aka "the Proprietor") runs a tight ship. He is from Ireland but makes Hiroshima his home. He understands the importance of high quality food in the Japanese market and delivers. English menu and friendly staff close the deal. Make sure you request a "half... More
