Forty One Bar & Restaurant
County Clare
At a glance
Forty One Bar & Restaurant is an Irish restaurant and bar at 41 Abbey Street in Clonroad Beg, Ennis, County Clare. Its identity combines restaurant dining with the functions of a cocktail bar, bar and grill, and general bar, giving the venue a broad food and drinks offering within one address.
The food style is rooted in Irish cuisine, with European restaurant fare also represented. That makes the venue suited to guests looking for a meal in a restaurant setting rather than a single-purpose drinks venue. The bar and grill category adds a more informal dimension to the dining offer, while the restaurant classification keeps food at the centre of the experience.
Drinks include beer, wine and cocktails. The cocktail-bar element gives the venue a place within Ennis's evening food and drinks scene, while the beer and wine options provide familiar choices alongside a meal. The combination supports different kinds of visits, from a straightforward restaurant meal to drinks with food in a bar setting.
Dine-in service is available, and meal takeaway is also part of the venue's offering. This gives Forty One Bar & Restaurant two distinct ways to order food: a seated visit at the Abbey Street premises or a takeaway meal. The listing does not limit the restaurant to one particular occasion, so the format suits guests seeking either an on-site meal or food to take away.
Group dining is one of the clearest practical strengths of the venue. The good-for-groups feature indicates that Forty One Bar & Restaurant is suitable for shared visits and social meals where several guests are dining together. Its mix of food, bar service, beer, wine and cocktails also allows a group to choose from more than one type of drink during the same visit.
With a moderate price level, the venue occupies an accessible middle range rather than presenting itself as a formal fine-dining restaurant. The overall character is therefore defined by Irish and European food, a bar-and-grill format, cocktail service, and flexible dine-in or takeaway options. Located on Abbey Street in Ennis, Forty One Bar & Restaurant provides a practical choice for meals, group occasions and drinks with food.
