    Excellent, however plates should be cleared when all those dining have finished eating and not before, especially when people had not quite finished yet. Otherwise, a great night out.

    The host was very polite and actually moved me to another table that was much more comfortable! The bartender was also polite and reminded me there was a special dish available! In the end I got crumbed steak, hmm, the meat was tasty but I removed all the crust (sorry)! I paid $2.50 for a ‘salad’ which was a bit of grated carrots, bits of cucumber and slivers of red onion? It was tasty but pretty basic? I like Molly’s and will go there every time I travel to Townsville! Cheers 🍺
