Happy New Year To All Our Loyal Customers And Friends

All at Moroney's Bar would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank all our loyal customers and friends both at home and abroad for their continued custom. It was great to see so many faces home from far and wide for the Christmas holidays as this is a time for family and friends. Unfortunately this past year we have lost some dear friends who sadly will never walk through our doors again and we especially think of them all and their families at this time of year. It is you who has put Moroney's on the map and made it the popular pub that it is today for which we are eternally grateful. Happy New Year and Sincere Best Wishes from Maurice, Tomas, Ronnie, Hanna, Teresa and Ricky. Looking forward to seeing you all in 2026

McCannon's Drapery Closes It's Door For The Last Time In The Market

On Friday 21st November last Ennis lost another old business with the closure of McCannon's drapery shop in the Lower Market area of the town. After 50 years trading Liam ( Willie) McCannon has retired from business and so with it another Market Street landmark has closed. Over the last few weeks when news of Liam's pending retirement became known many of his customers came to wish him well including Patsy Cronin who was one of McCannon's original customers back in the 50's. Following on from the closures of Meere's Butchers, O Connor's Newsagents and The Post Office in recent times it's another blow to what was once a vibrant commercial area.

Liam's late father Bill opened the original drapery shop which was then situated where the present roundabout is in The Market. With the demolition of this area in the late 60's the present shop was built in 1969… Read more

Nice One Gerry

Our own Gerry Moroney won four senior titles with Ennis Faughs 1947, 1948, 1952 and 1954, captaining them to victory in 1952. An interesting article in the Clare Champion in the week leading up to the Clare Senior Football final by well know journalist Joe O Muircheartaigh recounts the story of how the original Faughs got their first set of jerseys. The late Frankie ( Popeye) Coote recalled that they had no jerseys and went about collecting money. " Gerry Moroney one of the players and when he went back to the family pub in The Market and told them of the new club he was told to go upstairs and take what change was in the dresser. When it was all counted up there was enough for a set of jerseys" And so The Faughs were off and running. Different times but the passion for Gaelic Football in the… Read more

Eire Og On THE DOUBLE

After the fantastic breakthrough for the hurlers the Eire Og footballers under new manager Shane Daniels won the Jack Daly Cup for the second consecutive year and the fourth time in the last five years which is a truly fantastic achievement. Not only that but it completed the senior hurling and football double for The Townies and the only club side in the 32 counties to do so this year. What a historic achievement. There were 14 dual players across both panels which shows how well both management teams handled the workload for the players. They met neighbours St Joseph's Doora Barefield in the final and it was only in the closing stages that The Townies pulled away to win on a scoreline of 1-16 to 2-06.

The team lined out as follows : Eire Og: Cian Howard; Dean Ryan, Aaron Fitzgerald, Manus Doherty; Ciaran Russell, Gavin DAuria, Ronan Lanigan;… Read more

The Canon Is Back In Town After 35 Years - HON THE TOWNIES

What a year it has been for Eire Og Ennis senior hurlers or as they are better know THE TOWNIES. After a 35 year wait the Canon Hamilton Cup , the holy grail of senior hurling in the county will finally rest in the Clonroadmore Clubhouse on Sunday 5th October. The first time Eire Og won the Senior Championship was in 1956 and our own Gerry Moroney was corner back on that breakthrough team. At the start of the season manager Gerry O Connor and his long time assistant with Eire Og teams down the years John Russell had only one objective and that was to win the senior title. Thankfully their tremendous dedication, the injection of youth and a never say die attitude from all the fantastic players got them over the line against a gallant Clooney - Quin side. The team that lined out in the final is… Read more
