Frequently Asked Questions

Is a food tour in Sligo worth it?

Absolutely! There’s no better way to experience the beautiful city of Sligo and its culture than a food tour with a local guide.

What is the most famous food in Sligo?

It can be hard to choose with so many delicious dishes in Sligo, but locals and visitors often recommend trying fresh seafood, hearty Irish stews, and traditional soda bread. Sligo’s coastal location means you can enjoy freshly caught fish and shellfish, while its countryside offers flavors from locally farmed meats and seasonal produce. From cozy cafés to bustling markets, Sligo has a variety of culinary delights that showcase the best of Irish cuisine.

Are tourists welcome in Sligo?

Yes, absolutely. There’s an Sligo tradition, the passeggiata—the gentle evening stroll to see and be seen. It’s about enjoying the city’s beauty at a relaxed pace, and it’s a feeling we believe every visitor should experience in Sligo.

You’ll find the spirit of the passeggiata from locals when you connect with the city respectfully. It’s found when you support the family-run trattorias in Trastevere, help keep the ancient fountains pristine, and learn to navigate the beautiful, organised chaos of daily life. This is the authentic Sligo experience.

It’s this connection we create on our Eating Europe tours. We step away from the crowds and take you to the places locals truly love, introducing you to the people behind the food and the stories that make this city one of a kind.

Do the tours accommodate vegetarian or gluten-free diets?
