What Marilyn Poseika likes about Molly's Bistro Bakery:
This lovely bistro in Downtown Minden offers a selection of dark roast coffee cups and other varieties for the coffee maker, but does not serve specialty coffee or lattes. View all feedback. What Lisa Robson doesn't like about Molly's Bistro Bakery:
This place was recommended by a family member who is a local in town. Could not have been more disappointed in the service provided. Sharp tongued and snappy woman (owner? at the till who took my order. Young server was a bit stand offish. I actually liked my apple compote crepe but the waffles the other party members all had were all undercooked. Pale and soft to touch. Not crispy as they should be. Expected better...

Molly's restaurant offers a very ambitious menu that falls short of expectations for some patrons. While the Belgian waffles and bumbleberries were disappointing, the bakery treats were decent. The service varied from great to rude, with undercooked waffles and cold food being recurring issues. However, the atmosphere was cozy, and some diners enjoyed the experience, especially Shirley's excellent service. The restaurant caters to various dietary needs with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, making it a hidden gem for some. Despite mixed reviews, many appreciate Molly's take-out options and frozen meals during the COVID lockdown.

I ordered a cheeseburger and it was delicious! It was nothing like the hockey puck they serve at Dominion.
