I’m from cork and I think limerick is far superior at the moment.
Not a bad oul city
I’m Irish and I’ve actually never been to Limerick city 👀 it’s terrible..
Must try and get to a match in Thomand Park soon
I’ve been a few times in the last few years, it’s a lovely little city.
As a Corkman I have to say I really like the place, a genuinely nice little city.
Love limerick. Love Thomand.
Limerick is a fine city. Small enough to walk around, big enough to have all you need. And a great choice for a weekend away, better value than Dublin or Galway anyway.
From Cork, myself and herself spent a night there a few weeks ago, we spent the day walking around the city and over to the castle, honestly we both loved it, we stumbled upon two different markets and had a few pints here and there, I’d definitely go back, it’s definitely very underrated.
The “stab city” moniker was an unfair burden on Limerick.
Misery misery misery the whole flippin way
Dub here; I love Limerick. To me, as someone who loves city life and visiting cities, I think it’s my favourite *other* city on the island. I can never understand the shade that gets thrown on it but I guess like most things the ones that shout the loudest are also the ones that know the least about it.
Gigs in the castle are amazing, its just a rare thing, and hard to organise.
Really Limerick would be even better if the council didn’t have a long legacy of being one of, if not THE worst in Ireland.
Utterly incompetent greedpigs.
They did a fair good job at urban regeneration. A lot of the gangland crime seems to have gone away? Who is responsible for this? Seems to have really kicked on since the bad old days with Moyross always making the news
Much done, more to do.

A Limerick nan/auld one calling you luv hits different
Was in Limerick a few years ago and really liked it. Had a few pints in a nice pub by the river.
The city certainly improved when the scumbags that plagued the place were sent to prison and their little “empire” dismantled.
Think it’s more like Galway used to market itself to be, culture wise but with fairly better planning. And Limerick seems to be doing colleges better than the rest of the country, no small thanks to Chuck Feeney of course RIP
As a Limerick man . Limerick is a shithole.
Not because of the people mind you but those absolutely incompetent numberskulls who are better known as councillors. They’ve absolutely decimated the city, increased rates during a recession and businesses left it in droves. There’s absolutely nothing in there now to attract visitors.
Lived in Limerick for six years or so all through my time at UL.
As cities go it’s not a bad place at all. Some great spots to hang out in
Some of the best years of my life in Limerick! Definitely better than my time in Dublin
