About Us

You’re just in time—the kettle’s on, and a loaf of soda bread is warm from the oven.  The fire is crackling, and there’s a cosy lambswool blanket waiting in case you’d like to stay awhile.

Moloney’s Irish Imports is inspired by the comforts of home.  Specifically, the homes of our ancestors, nestled in Ireland’s lush, green countryside.  Whether you’re a first- or second-generation Irish American, part of the broader Irish diaspora, or simply drawn to the warmth of Irish culture, we’ve curated a collection of jewellery, clothing, home goods, gifts, and (most importantly!) food to share with you and yours.

We’re proud to bring the best of Ireland to the Twin Cities, offering a shopping experience that blends nostalgia with discovery.  From celebrated legacy brands to the next generation of small makers, every item on our shelves carries the colour, craft, and spirit of Ireland.

Whether you know the streets of Dublin like the back of your hand, are exploring a homeland you’ve yet to visit, or are simply craving a hot cup of tea with a biscuit or two, Moloney’s is here to help you celebrate your love of Ireland.

Our Story

Moloney’s Irish Imports was founded by Emma Crawford, who wanted to create a space that celebrated Irish heritage, honoured the Twin Cities Irish community, and brought the timeless hallmarks of Irish culture into a modern setting.
The shop is named for Emma’s mother, Nanette Moloney, who emigrated from Limerick at just 19 years old.  Emma built her career working at Irish on Grand, where she discovered the joy of sharing her Irish heritage with others in the community.
Moloney’s Irish Imports is her opportunity to continue that tradition, offering the most robust selection of Irish goods in the region and creating a space that feels like home to all who walk through the door.
