Once lectures finish on a Friday, it\u2019s time to make the most of your weekend in your Uni town of Limerick! I know people often deem Limerick as boring, but I’m going to tell how much our city has to offer! Read on for a guide to the perfect weekend in Limerick.<\/p>\n

1. Morning Market Munching<\/h2>\n

I often enjoy spending my Saturday mornings in the Milk Market.\u00a0 The marquee is full of independent stalls selling fresh international foods to vinyl. \u00a0Seating in the overhead balcony\u00a0is an ideal spot for people watching while you munch away on a crepe or two!<\/p>\n

2. Hunting Around The Hunt Museum<\/h2>\n

You can then roll over to the Hunt museum to educate yourself a little bit.\u00a0 If you were born and raised in Limerick, I have no doubt that you have been dragged here during school trips.\u00a0 However, returning to the museum as a student gives the place a new lease of life.\u00a0 The hunt museum is currently displaying some exhibitions of Jack B Yeats and Paul Henry along with the Hunts own collection.<\/p>\n

\u00a03. Lunching Around Limerick<\/h2>\n

If you don\u2019t fancy getting a coffee in the Hunt Museums caf\u00e9, I urge you to visit Hook and Ladder, a quirky little place with\u00a0a wide range of choices\u00a0for everyone.\u00a0 In addition to this, this restaurant is ideal for the perfect Instagram opportunity!<\/p>\n

4. Take A Stroll Along The River Shannon<\/h2>\n

Take a leisurely stroll along the River Shannon to work off your lunch. This walk takes around 30 minutes starting at Thomond bridge.<\/p>\n

5. Saturday Night Fever<\/h2>\n

Depending on what kind of night you want Limerick is full of bars for all ages. I advise you enter bars such as Mickey Martins, The Locke and Pharmacia before 9 pm as they can get pretty packed after that time.\u00a0 Also, the age limit for certain pubs and bars can rise after a certain time.<\/p>\n

6. Sunday Zen<\/h2>\n

After a lie in on Sunday you can return to the Milk Market for Yoga with Vanessa at 11 am.\u00a0 The class supplies mats you only have to bring yourself and a fiver! The class takes place on the balcony and leaves you feeling \u201czen\u201d for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n

\u00a07. Turning Back Time<\/h2>\n

King John\u2019s Castle s another one of those must go\u2019s if your living or just visiting Limerick. They\u2019ve recently modernised the castle, so it\u2019s easy to navigate about! You also get a great view of the city from one of the many balconies!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8. A Fishy Feast<\/h2>\n

To finish off your weekend have dinner and a few at the Curragower pub, a ten-minute walk for King John\u2019s Castle. With a massive menu full of traditional food such as the classic fish and chip and outdoor seating, it\u2019s easy to spend all night in this cosy pub restaurant.<\/p>\n
