What happened after Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back?
Patrick Molloy's is a sports pub on the Hermosa Beach pier co-owned by Alice, her husband Fred, and her son from an earlier marriage, Patrick Molloy Bastian, who had inherited a share of the bar from his late father. By the time Ramsay's crew filmed the seventh episode of the season in late 2017, that family arrangement was under strain: Fred and Patrick clashed over responsibility and respect, the business was deep in debt with only a few months of runway left, and Alice was caught in the middle. Ramsay, disguised as a surfer, was served shepherd's pie, chicken wings, and tacos he found inedible before revealing himself and shutting down the kitchen. Hidden-camera footage shown to the family and staff documented a dirty kitchen and days-old chicken wings that had never been properly cleaned out.
Over the 24-hour turnaround, Ramsay's team added dishes such as fish tacos, steak fries, and a fresh Caesar salad, retrained the kitchen around head chef Gaby, and pushed Fred and Patrick to address their strained relationship directly, installing Patrick as the pub's manager for the relaunch. Reviews at the reopening were positive, and Gaby was later named a managing partner.
The turnaround was not entirely smooth: an unverified tracker claim on realitytvupdates.com, citing unnamed local Hermosa Beach news coverage, states that the city's Planning Commission later found some of the show's structural changes had been made without required permits and ordered them reversed. Beyond that dispute, the pub continued operating, expanding its identity around a whiskey-forward bar program and a well-known frozen Irish coffee. As of 2026, the pub's own website advertises current hours, live online ordering, and a full events calendar, and its Yelp listing — updated in August 2026 with more than 800 reviews — is not marked closed.
