Holy Cross Pub in

Excellent food very well presented.Ted&Marie Hartley

The Holy Cross Bar & Restaurant Waterford Located on the N25 Just outside Waterford City on the Way to Cork. Large ample car park, ald although the car park is loose stone, which may cause a problem for some wheelchairs, or buggies etc, in general, accessibility here is good. The decor here is very traditional. Quite clearly once a thriving pub, the food offering here has taken primary purpose of the building now, but that traditional pub feel is retained with a wood burning stove, high ceilings with open rafters, lots of traditional pub decorations such as a vintage pushbike mounted in the rafters as well as pictures from around the locality, and pub based curios on display. The Holy cross has a great atmosphere whenever you call. At peak times, it can be very busy, but a large spacious inside area ensures plenty of people can get seated, yet it doesn't feel too large or cavernous. There are a few nice separate areas to sit. Despite its capacity for large crowds, on busy days, queues do form, which in itself is a good sign. My advice if you are thinking of visiting at what you may consider to be a popular time, try to beat the crowd. Get in ahead of 10am for breakfast or before 1 for dinner.

One of my first choices in Waterford for lunch. I ve never got a bad meal here no matter what I choose. Most options allow a ' half dinner' reduced price choice. Free diluted squashes with your meal. Toilets nice and clean ( I always think that's a reflection of kitchen standards too). Friendly service. Easy parking straight ourside. Heartily recommend.

Food and staff excellent ,reasonably priced, easy parking, great location, highly recommend

Pleasant welcome, friendly atmosphere, and superb breakfast, top-notch cuisine. You can sleep peacefully. The only downside is that there's no shower. Clean toilet. We had a great time.

The café serves typical Irish food. It's nice that you can choose your own dishes — the selection is pretty good. I wouldn’t say the food is amazing, but it’s definitely decent enough to eat.

Everything about this pub restaurant is good

I have been going to the holy Cross for many years now and it's always been consistently good for food be it breakfast lunch or dinner, used to go yhere years ago for pints and live music unfortunately that is no more, they open Wednesday through Sunday and close each day about 8.30 highly recommend the holy for food , staff are always friendly and polite
