The Latin Quarter is the area of Galway situated on the left bank of the Corrib – defined by some of the city’s most historic landmarks, it stretches from Spanish Arch at Long walk to O’Brien’s Bridge to St Nicholas’ Church and back (via Buttermilk lane) to An Taibhdhearc on Middle St. It is home to many of Galway’s quirkiest and best known pubs, restaurants and shops and has for many years played host to much of Galway’s renowned cultural activity.
