Who we are

Molak Corporation owns and operates some of the most iconic brands in Texas.

Our properties include the world famous Gruene Hall, Gristmill River Restaurant & Bar, Cantina del Rio, Mozie’s, Cotton Eyed Joe’s, The Company Store, and The Grapevine in New Braunfels.

We’re not a cookie cutter chain; every one of our operations has its own unique style and personality.

Our establishments deliver unique blends of music and food experiences to visitors who love the world’s best music, the lore of Texas, and just having a good old time.

If you’re interested in being one of them, we’d love to hear from you!
