Irish Pub in Downtown Fort Worth

Malone's Pub has been part of Downtown Fort Worth since 2000, serving as the kind of Irish pub people find once and keep coming back to. It is not trying to be a polished restaurant concept or a glossy nightlife lounge. It is a local pub with Guinness, cold beer, games, regulars, and enough character to feel lived in.

Malone's Pub is at 1303 Calhoun St in Downtown Fort Worth, close to Sundance Square, the Fort Worth Convention Center, and Texas A&M Fort Worth.

If you are searching for an Irish pub Fort Worth locals actually use, Malone's fits the search because it combines the pub basics with a dive-bar mood: friendly bartenders, simple bar food, and a room built for hanging out instead of hurrying through.

You can expect Guinness, cold beer, cocktails, simple bar food, pool, darts, Golden Tee, Big Lebowski pinball, jukebox, and free street parking nearby.

The bar works for an after-work pint, a low-key night near Sundance Square, a stop before or after an event at the Convention Center, or a late-night drink downtown. The Irish pub identity is part Guinness, part neighborhood, and part not overthinking things.

The room is dark, casual, and no-frills in the right way: cold drinks, regulars, bar games, music, and a neighborhood dive-bar feel without the polished chain-restaurant routine.
