r/Sligo

Heading to North Sligo tomorrow for a couple of nights staying in the Aughris area.

I'll be taking in Strandhill and Coney Island tomorrow and then I'm attending a heritage week event tomorrow night in Enniscrone.

I'd love some suggestions for Friday of things to do in the area. Think cute coffee shops, markets, charity shops, nice lunch spots etc.

TIA 😉

Any tips? Where did you go, did you do a boat trip?

Hey everyone, I am wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a garage in town that could do these repairs for me and wont fleece me, I'm looking to get these done before a retest on the 17th of next month, so any help here would really be appreciated!

I'll be getting new tires just after the retest when my September pay day rolls around too.

Thanks in advance!

I think they built Farmhill manor looking for any experience with them and build quality please ? Thank you

Bouldering etc.

Does the text service for Coney island work for other people? You text Coney to 51155 and they send you safe crossing info. I've tried it every summer for the last 3 years and I never get a text back.

Hi everyone! I moved to Sligo last week to study at ATU, and I’m finding the move a lonely so far.

I’m also gay, so I’d especially love to meet some LGBTQ+ people or anyone who is open to making new friends. I’m interested in getting out, exploring Sligo, going for walks, having coffee, going to pubs/events, etc.

Are there any LGBTQ+ groups, social events, clubs, or places in Sligo where it’s easy to meet people? Or are there any other students/newcomers here who are also looking to make friends?

Would really appreciate any suggestions 😊

Does anybody know where I can dispose of a trailer load of concrete blocks and stones and some old ceramic tiles in or near Sligo?

I need to rent a car in knock Airport west Ireland on October . I found rental companies asking 2000-2500 € for deposit...off the chart in any places of the world. Could anyone suggest me rental companies that ask normal deposit (250-300€). Thanks

going to sligo with my friend some time this month, we just plan to go to a beach and day drink, grab lunch in a nice pub, maybe take a dip in the ocean. we'll be going by public transport so im just planning everything out to make sure everything is as close as possible. we were gonna just go to strandhill since thats what showed up on google maps but i thought it might be better to ask for better ideas/recs here if any

thanks a lot

Hi, I’m looking for a small garage/workshop to rent in or around Sligo, preferably within 20 km.
Budget up to €1,200 per month.
I’m looking for a secure enclosed unit where I can work on cars — mainly mechanical repairs and maintenance.
Ideally with electricity, water and vehicle access/roller door.
If anyone knows of a garage, workshop, shed or industrial unit available to rent, please let me know. I’m also happy to contact private owners directly.

Which takeaway is the best? Looking for serious recommendations.

So I did something a little silly cos I'm a soft arse and drove up to Dublin for a Beyblade Tournament ran by Beyblade Ireland. My little man (he's 10) is obsessed with the TV show and the toys but all the tournaments or opportunity to play with others interested is Dublin or Belfast.

Feckin 5 hour drive just to play, dunno what I was thinking. He had a whale of a time though.

Just wondering if there's any interest in something similar round here? Or if there is something and I just don't know about it? He was in the 12 and under tournament, there was a 13 and over tournament. They charged €6 a head and there were 32 kids all playing. Well run too, the kids were more interested in playing each other than misbehaving.
