Ebrington Square Derry — Attraction in Northern Ireland

New pub/restaurant ' The Stitch and Weave' , nice atmosphere..... and a decent pint of Guinness.

Nice historic buildings but currently lacks cafe and bar facilities in the evening. (Cafe/restaurant plans now declared) Facilities during the day are very limited. Note that Ebrington is still under development, but is a nice walk through the square and across the Peace Bridge to Guildhall Square. New hotel planned in the main building. 2022/23 should see some nice changes.

After a whistle stop tour of the Bogside in a taxi, we had a coffee outside the Guildhall and then walked across the Peace Bridge to Ebrington Square. A former military barracks, it is newly refurbished and there's a brewery (nice find) which has several cooling ales for the tired visitor as well as a nice place to sit and watch the skate boarders and the general world go by....
