29/06/2025: 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.
