Muldoons Saloon

I consider Muldoon’s my local watering hole. Typically regulars, music inside and out. Front porch seating, real nice patio, bar and picnic tables including fire pits during winter out back. Driveway has limited parking but parking is never an issue due to street parking on the side and a business that has a vacant lot at night which is basically connected to the Saloon’s parking lot. There is a pool table and stage in the bar. Music of some sort most nights… rock, blues, acoustic, jams, and Karaōke (which sometimes is dreadful) but it’s always a good time. Has dedicated motorcycle parking. Bartenders have been changing, most good some too busy on their cells to keep your beer full. A few don’t know newer, specialty shots (snickers, Pay Day etc) but when we tell them the ingredients we find out the particular liquor isn’t on shelf. No food so don’t expect a burger with your beer. On occasion a roach or two but it’s always a good time. I’m actually going there tonight.

Muldoon’s Saloon is another great dive bar on Aloma in Goldenrod. I usually pop in here for a drink or two when I’m visiting my boyfriend in O-​Town.
Smoky? Of course. Questionable crowd? At times. But they have super reasonable drink prices ($ 2.50 wells everyday), karaōke Wednesdays, Jam Band Thursdays, and great live music on the weekends. Friendly bartenders. There’s only one pool table, though. Out back there’s a neat little patio seating area with a fire pit.
As other reviewers of this establishment have noted, do NOT go here with high expectations. A dive is called a dive for a reason. If you’re looking for a good place to relax with friends or for a pick me up after work, Muldoon’s is your Saloon.
Only complaint: don’t expect to finish your drink if you’ve got some left come last call. They’ll make you pour it out.

Great hole-​in-​the-​wall bar! Don’t come in expecting much and you won’t be disappointed.

Reading over these reviews, I grow confused. Someone came to this place and expected a classy, upscale sort of establishment? It’s mostly located outside — there’s really no excuse for not seeing it precisely for what it was and the exact sort of patrons it attracts. You can tell before you even exit your vehicle that you may be over dressed… and if this is truly a legitimate concern for you, you can surely start the engine up again and haul your hoity-​toity heiny over to an alternate location more suitable for your refined tastes. Fifi’s or Miss Prissy Princessface, for example. I am sure these places exist (probably on Park Ave) and are perfectly happy to accept money from people with more high-​maintenance sensibilities
Yes, this is low key, low production type of joint. Yes, the average customer is a grizzled older gentleman and perhaps he owns a motorcycle and even more likely he is a war vet who could tell you some interesting stories if you weren’t so concerned with chipping a nail or walking your Jimmy Choos through a little bit of dirt to get to a table on the patio.
Another reviewer remarked that this is not a place for nuns or sissies or girl scouts; as both a former girl scout and a current, licensed sissy, I disagree. I cannot, however, speak for the nuns.
What it is: a local watering hole populated by some working glass folks, probably a 40−60+ crowd (full disclosure: I am 37 but I would probably like this place even if I were in my 20s). Beer and liquor, nothing fancy. If you’re a regular customer, the bartender has your glass pour before you even get up the bar. No food. Or, at least very little food. I am told they serve it, but I have never seen anyone eating there. Sometimes live music, though this is only hearsay as far as I am concerned; I have yet to hear any. A good place for a drink with a small group if you’re not out to impress anyone and don’t give a crap about appearances. You want a cheap drink with some good friends. You must also not mind a few mosquito bites, because as I mentioned most of the seating is outside.
What it is not: a nightclub; a teaparty; a discothèque; a runway.
Leave your expensive shoes at home. Or not, I can’t tell you what to do.

I used to frequent this place a couple of decades ago, and I just recently began to go back again.
It is a local, blue collar and blue jeans type of joint… period.
Small, crowded, and sometimes loud inside. Smoking permitted. No food.
Other than adding the ‘tiki bar’ area in the back, it really hasn’t changed much in 20+ years.
Drop in for a few drinks and listen to some live music in one of Winter Park’s iconic watering holes.
Make sure to put it on your pub crawl itinerary.
Sissies, nuns, and girl scouts should probably go somewhere else.
This ain’t TGI Fridays.

If your looking for a cool Fri or Sat and your not one of those «I drive my Daddy’s Beamer» Downtown kids then you’ll love Muldoon’s Saloon. Live Rock and Roll Friday and Saturdays, with an Acoustic Jam on Sundays.
It’s always cool when some new musicians show up and just jump into it, there always welcomed with a smile. So if you play. come on down and join in!
Wednesday is Ladies night as well as karaōke night ($ 1 tap $ 2 wells from 10:00pm to 1:00am for the ladies.)
The Bartenders are about as cool as it gets and the place has a very laid back atmosphere. On the weekends there is an Outside Bungalow type bar with it’s own jukebox and tv’s.
Inside you can find a Pool Table, several dart machines, mega-​touch machines as well as a very well rounded jukebox. If you like the No-​Drama Classic Rock scene this is it! I cannot think of another bar in the area that does it like Muldoon’s and all for NO COVER EVER!
Muldoon’s Hosts Pool teams as well as Dart Leagues, get in on the fun!
I have been a patron for a few yrs now and if your into a place with «Real» People than this is it! Gotta love the Live Music ALL WEEKEND LONG!

You aren’t kidding, Ashley K. — this place is abysmal. I have a lot of funny stories about this place … though they’re not really even MY OWN stories, since I was only here one time and didn’t stay long enough to really take everything in. Long story, but I know someone who used to work here … and she told me about a lot of crazy stuff that happened here … some of which involved her. (She’s kind of a lunatic herself.) I don’t go to this part of town anymore, so there’s a zero % chance I’ll ever be back. Even if I did find myself in that area, I’d have to be the most desperate person in the world for a beer to go back in. I’m guessing that the only people who go here on a regular basis are constant regulars, people who don’t go more than a half-​mile from their house or people who just don’t realize that there’s anything better than this place. (Maybe all of the above!)
Seriously … just try and find somewhere on Aloma, S.R. 436 or University to grab a drink. You’re close enough to all three that going to Muldoon’s shouldn’t even be a consideration. AVOID.

This place is a DUMP. I visited shortly before Christmas last year with my boyfriend and apparently was overdressed. I stuck out like a sore thumb and I wasn’t even really dressed up. I guess having a full set of teeth and having been recently showered made me stand out.
Several of the «distinguished gentlemen» clientele looked as if they were dying for a fight and I’m not even sure how the overly intoxicated, underage bartender was still serving drinks and making decent draft pours. I guess that’s a plus?
I suppose they offered decent drink specials but I personally can’t get away from how gross this place feels. I was told that they hire bouncers to pose as regulars in case things get out of hand, so I guess that’s another plus?
In summary, if you have clothes that you can set on fire after visiting then by all means make a trip here. Do not wear anything you’d like to keep — the scent of smoke and other undesirable scents will never wash out. Ever.
