About Monasterevin
Monasterevin is a historic market town in south County Kildare, set on the River Barrow between Kildare Town and Portarlington.

Everyday life is convenient, with local shops, cafés, pubs and services clustered around the town centre and Mill Street Shopping Centre. Families are served by local primary schools and Monasterevin’s secondary school, with further education available in nearby Kildare and Portlaoise. Monasterevin Train Station provides regular rail connections towards Dublin, Kildare, Portlaoise and the wider commuter network, while the M7 and N7 are accessible by road. Leisure options include riverside walks, canal-side scenery, community facilities and nearby sports clubs, with Park & Bark providing a useful local amenity for dog owners. The town’s pubs, restaurants and cafés offer relaxed local places to meet, while larger retail and service centres are available in Kildare Town and Portlaoise.
