Our Story
Mocara Event Venue was born from a passion for bringing people together. Ed Riley, the owner, opened Mocara as a restaurant in 2012. With the success of our catering business, it was a natural step for Ed to expand into a restaurant. Mo’Cara Restaurant thrived until July 19, 2020, when we transformed our operations into a dedicated event venue. Ed pours his heart and soul into the venue every day, ensuring that we remain a place where memories are made. What does Mo'Cara mean? Mo'Cara is Gaelic (Irish) and translates to 'My Friend' While the literal translation may vary, our focus is on fostering a sense of friendship and warmth for everyone who works and celebrates with us.
