Limerick’s Global Kitchen - One Street

High Street Food Trail

Limerick’s Global Kitchen — One Street, Endless Flavour

Tucked beside the historic walls of the Market Quarter, High Street is Limerick City’s most exciting and ethnically diverse food destination. Just a short stroll from Peggy’s Whiskey Parlour, this bustling street is a feast for the senses — packed with flavour, colour, and the kind of food that locals crave, and visitors remember.

With a growing reputation for bold, authentic street food, High Street has become a cultural and culinary melting pot, where independent food spots serve up everything from Filipino comfort food to fiery American wings, Moroccan spice, Japanese precision, and Vietnamese creativity — all side by side.

What to Expect

Street Food Culture

Most venues are casual, counter-style or grab-and-go with limited seating — ideal for a quick bite or a self-guided food crawl.

Big Flavours, Small Prices

Generous portions and authentic ingredients make this street a haven for foodies on any budget.

Global Vibes

You’ll hear Tagalog, Vietnamese, Arabic, and more in the kitchens and dining spaces. High Street isn’t just about food — it’s about people and pride of place.
