At the Molotov Cocktail, we serve
Irish Car Bombs all day, and our
napkins are rags soaked in kerosene.
Disasters unspool on our high-definition
televisions in surround sound – floods,
riots, mass shootings. Take your pick.
This Throwback Thursday, watch
Watts explode into flames at the bar.
Follow us on Facebook to discover
more vintage disasters and other special
offers. Leave a comment on our Instagram
if you have a suggestion for a disaster
you’d like to see. You can be anyone
here- lady killer, femme fatale, innocent
bystander. No one is a victim here. This
place only has so much room, and we
reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
