ABOUT
A New Chapter in the Castle’s Story
Malones Irish Pub & Social is the living room of Framingham’s iconic “castle on the Pike” – a modern Irish pub and social house inside the newly renovated hotel.
For decades, guests and locals gathered here at Molly Malone’s, the beloved Irish tavern that helped give the castle its character. Malones carries that spirit forward with a fresh look, a chef-driven menu, and a bar built around warm hospitality, great conversation, and drinks worth lingering over.
We’re rooted in Irish tradition, shaped by New England seasons, and proudly connected to our Framingham community.
Pub & Social: Where Framingham Gathers
“Pub & Social” isn’t just a tagline—it’s how we think about the space.
Malones is where hotel guests meet locals, where colleagues become friends after a long conference day, and where wedding parties and out-of-town visitors make the castle their own. Slide into a booth for dinner, meet at the bar before an event, or stretch out an evening over dessert and one more round.
As part of the fully renovated hotel, we’re steps away from guest rooms, ballrooms, and event spaces, making Malones the natural hub for:
Wedding weekends and family gatherings
Corporate groups and conference after-hours
Pre-show drinks, post-event bites, and everything in between
The Bar: Local Brew & Good Company
At Malones, the bar is more than a backdrop – it’s the heartbeat of the room.
We’re especially proud of our signature Irish Coffee program. It’s our love letter to the classic: carefully selected coffee, rich Irish whiskey, real cream, and just enough sweetness to make you slow down and savor the moment. Whether it’s the perfect nightcap or a warming welcome on a cold day, Irish Coffee is one of our specialties.
We’re also lucky to share a hometown with Jack’s Abby, and we showcase their brews proudly. From crisp lagers to seasonal favorites, Jack’s Abby is poured alongside Guinness, other regional beers, and a curated selection of Irish whiskeys and cocktails.
Order a pint, an Irish Coffee, or let our team recommend a pairing for whatever’s on your plate. The goal is simple: drinks that feel crafted but never complicated.
A Stage for Local Sounds
A true pub has a pulse, and at Malones that includes live entertainment.
We’ll regularly host local artists from the Boston region – from acoustic sets and singer-songwriters to small bands that keep the energy high without drowning out conversation. It’s the kind of live music that invites you to stay for “just one more song” and another round with friends.
We’re here to be a home for local talent, a place where you can discover a new favorite artist over a pint or an Irish Coffee.
