LUNA Deli and Wine is a sister establishment of The Ross Hotel and Killarney Park Hotel.

It is situated on the corner of East Avenue and Brewery Lane and just few doors up from the Ross Hotel.

It is Killarney’s only deli and wine bar- serving sandwiches and salads along with coffee and pastries by day, and wine by night, LUNA is a unique and welcome addition to the town’s ever expanding array of cafés and eateries.

“We are delighted to have opened our doors– the response from our customers has been amazing. It has been fantastic to see our customers come in and grab a sandwich or salad and coffee during the day and to then return to relax in the evening with a glass of wine. That is exactly the experience we aim to deliver at LUNA,” said owners Killian and Emily Treacy.

“We would like to sincerely thank everyone that has helped us in getting our doors open as well as our customers that supported us throughout our first few days.”

LUNA provides customers with an offering of artisan sandwiches and healthy salads along with pastries and coffee from Tuesday to Saturday. It serves natural and organic wine with a selection of Irish cheese and charcuterie from 6pm Thursday to Saturday. On Sundays, customers can choose from a selection of pastries and coffee.

Further plans are in the pipeline once the Kenmare Place outdoor dining project is completed.

A new feature film, created by Irish writer and director Liam O Mochain, is set for release in Killarney next Friday, November 7.

Mr O Mochain said he is delighted to bring ABODE to a Killarney audience following its sold out world premiere at the Galway Film Fleadh and a screening at the recent IndieCork film festival.

ABODE is a feature film with five stories connected by the theme of home and what it means to the different characters in the film.

It shows that home has an importance and a different meaning for everyone.

In ABODE, everyone wants to belong somewhere. The film was shot over a three-year period and finished in early 2025.

O Mochain says that the stories are a mix of drama and comedy, inspired by true stories, events or incidents.

It is set on the theme of home which is very relevant today.

Ryan Lincoln, Sophie Vavessuer, and Liam O Mochain are among the cast.

ABODE is O Mochain’s fourth feature film. His 2017 feature film ‘Lost & Found’ screened at festivals around the world from the Galway Film Fleadh to the Austin Film Festival
