About Mo's
Mo Chara meaning ‘my friend’ in Irish, is a neighbourhood pub based on the concept of friendship and re-creating the Irish public house as a space for the local community.
Started by us three childhood friends, Cillian, Paul & Vincent in July 2021 - we set out to fulfill a lifelong dream of creating something that would become iconic to Dundalk at 19 Roden Place.
Mo's in the community
Our vision was to bring life back to one of Dundalk’s oldest and most beautiful pubs through creating an inviting cafe style atmosphere where everyone felt at home.
By offering the best quality locally sourced food, craft beer and coffee we wanted to champion the producers around us. We also set about creating charitable & cultural activities that we felt Dundalk was asking for!
Giving Back
We set out our stall from the very beginning with the ethos of giving back. Since opening and to this day, we give 10c of every pint of our house beers sold to a local charity.
From sponsoring local teams to hosting fundraising events. We've been delighted to be able to donate in excess of €15k since opening our doors.
Here are some of the worthwhile charities we’ve been able to help out along the way: Irish Cancer Society, North Louth Hospice, Do It for Dickie Donated, Dundalk Dog Rescue, Save Our Sonia, Movember & Head in The Game amongst others.
Arts & Cultural Events
From the beginning, we wanted to create a space that would encourage collaboration and celebrate the creators, innovators and entrepreneurs of Dundalk.
We focused and continue to put on events that we ourselves would love to attend. Something that adds a little bit to our town and showcases what we have to offer as a region.
Food & Drink Concept
When it comes to food, we wanted to offer Dundalk something a little different - top quality locally sourced grub but served casually. No need for a reservation or a fancy knife and fork. Sure that's what your hands are for?
Now for the drink, we are a craft beer focused taphouse with 28 taps including lots of our own lovely brews. But that's not all - we've top quality wine on tap, handmade cocktails, an eclectic mix in our fridges & the best coffee in town from Calendar.
As Confucius said, how you do one thing is how you do every thing - and we do it well.
Coffee + Sambos by day.
Pizza + Pints by night.
