**Limerick Stag**

jo.king

Guys,

i have been tasked with organising a stag in limerick at the beginning of October for approx 15 lads.

Can anyone suggest an activity - i have looked into the paintball and that is certainly a contender - we are staying near O’Brien’s Bridge - looking for activities for a the Saturday and places to eat and drink for the Friday and Saturday nights.

Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated...

Thanks,

Jo.

UL activity center in killaloe for water based activities. Kilcornan kart racing is decent. A little tamer is the indoor 18 hole putting course in Annacotty.

The Mill in Annacotty is a good pub grub type place where you'll get a decent meat and 3 veg. Finnegans wasn't great the last time I was there for the reputation it had built up over the lasat few years.

Activity..city based??

stay away.. u have been warned!
nightlife here sucks balls..

depends what you are into

The copper & spice restaurant in the Cornmarket is probably the best in the city. Nancys or Flannerys around the corner are nive pubs. Dolans on the dock road for live music:cool:

No it doesn't. I've known plenty of mates who had stags here, everyone's had a great time.

In fact, a friend was here 2 weeks ago for a stag, went paintballing, and then to the greyhounds before hitting the clubs, everyone had a great time.

Get over yourself

yes it does suck.. maybe people could have a good time if they actually got into the clubs!! i agree the paintball sounds like it was fun but the nitelife here is dire.. just look at places like cork, galway, dublin, belfast these places have great events coming to there cities every week.. not here though.. there is a reason for that and its because limerick nitelife is ****ed.. unless your a beer bellied local drinker.. then there is plenty places to go and hold up a bar...

so why dont you get over yourself!! asshole

*cm* banned for 1 week for personal abuse.

nightlife is a bit dull if you are not into binge drinking. true.
paintball and dog racing is fine but it's not what i would call "nightlife"

Amazotheamazing

Nightlife is a bit dull if you're based here week-in, week-out, as is anywhere. If you're down for one or 2 nights there's plenty of good pubs and clubs.

I've lived in Galway and Dublin, and a night out in Limerick can be just as good as either of those places. The way some people go about the nightlife on this board you'd swear every drink was free outside Limerick and you've to get past border controls just to get into a club here.

TmB, I know the board has rules on personal abuse, but I'm not particularly offended by CM's comments, don't really see the need for a ban.

Mr E

That's true. Didn't thought about that!

Paintballing and karting are great. Done both and was aching after both! Activity centre sounds good actually for a change, do something like that and then big ass steak dinner followed by pub / club. Followed by a gravy snackbox in the chicken hut. Is that open late?

I know Supermacs, pronounced **Soup,mass** at 3am after a skinfull is normaly open fairly well into the early hours, Burger King closes round 2:45 and Abra is open late too, no idea about the Hut though. McDonalds is really losing out closing around 11:30 on a Saturday night, but I suppose the proprieter is avoiding shift allowance.

Trinity Rooms is generally where you'll find the likes of me and my college buddies and people home for the weekend/summer. Icon is over 21s and Sin Bin is good craic with a mixed crowd.

A stag could have great craic in any of them, but bouncers here will be very wary of a stag I would imagine, since they're very wary of even the very sober and teetolaers!!
