Croom is a village in County Limerick, Ireland. It is located just off the N20 (which has bypassed the town since 2001) on the River Maigue.

It is 8 km southeast of Adare on the N20. Before being occupied by the FitzGerald dynasty, Croom was the last seat in County Limerick of the O'Donovan family, now principally of Carbery in County Cork.

Their ancestor Crom Ua Donnabain took his name from the place, and it is the origin also of the FitzGerald war cry "Crom Abu".
