About Bohermore
Bohermore is a well-established inner-city neighbourhood immediately east of Galway city centre, centred around Bohermore Road and the approach towards Dublin Road. It has a predominantly urban, mixed residential character, with period terraces, apartments, student accommodation and established local businesses close together. Residents can walk into Eyre Square, Shop Street and the Latin Quarter, while Galway’s main bus and rail connections are also within easy reach. Education options nearby include primary and secondary schools in the city, along with University of Galway and ATU Galway for third-level study. Everyday shopping is convenient, with supermarkets, pharmacies, cafés and takeaways on Bohermore and in the city centre; the area also benefits from the broader restaurant and pub scene around Eyre Square and Galway’s West End. Leisure options include nearby Eyre Square, the city’s pedestrian streets, local gyms and sports clubs, with Ballybane and Renmore amenities a short journey east. Bohermore suits residents who value centrality and walkability, although traffic, limited parking and city-centre activity are part of daily life.
