The best restaurantsof irish in Waterford

12/03/2026: Martha was an absolute delight, the food was marvelous & the overall atmosphere was very welcoming

09/03/2026: Unforgettable! We enjoyed a lengthy visit with the current owner. Our Montana connection gifted us with a forever memorable history, flag, and Meagher lesson. It's been a few years, but an memorable, meaningful time!

27/03/2026: What a lovely place, great atmosphere, everyone is enjoying themselves and the delicious food.

22/03/2026: We had a family gathering for Trish's "significant" birthday last Friday. What a brilliant night! The setting, the atmosphere, the service, the food...all top class. We had three children with us (ages 5 & 7) and Kamila made a special fuss over them making them feel very much at home and generating a very happy atmosphere around the table. A visit to this fabulous restaurant is always a treat but Friday night was extra special. Míle buíochas mór from all the Kavanaghs!

21/03/2026: This is honestly the best service I’ve seen in Ireland in my 20 years working in gastronomy. The two ladies working here are incredible — they’re worth a million to this bar, and they’re what truly make it special. First of all, they’re beautiful, professional, and incredibly well-organized. Together, they complement every aspect of this place perfectly. Everyone here feels happy and well taken care of. The highest respect for the service here — and of course, the food is top-level too, from traditional Irish dishes to a mix of international cuisine. Personally, this is my favorite bar so far.

15/03/2026: It was very busy, but despite this we were seated in a few minutes, served quickly and checked in on regularly! The food was fabulous, it's a lovely pub too!

12/03/2026: Beautiful hotel. Staff are fantastic. Rooms spotless and top class breakfast. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

11/03/2026: Fabulous bar, food served too. Decent Guinness 👍

04/04/2026: Had a great time at Geoff's today for lunch. Called to reserve a table and the manager said they will keep a seat for us. Got there, got seated, and had a great time. Shout out to Alex who answered the email query and Sam at the bar who got us sorted!

01/04/2026: A wonderfully cozy pub – exactly how I imagine a pub should be! The pie of the day (beef) was excellent, served without extra chips, but with a green salad and haddock with chips! The staff was very attentive and friendly, never intrusive – truly lovely hosts 👌🫶 made our visit perfect! 🙏

01/02/2026: Chris helped us to get a waterford curee whiskey taste and another taste menu for the craft beers. All the staff and the atmosphere were really welcoming.

28/12/2025: Going to revolution for years but last time pizza was terrible, dry tastles, in all honesty hard to mess up a pizza , first bad meal from revolution in years think I'll give it a miss try somewhere else , sorry food not cheap to have poor food .

26/03/2026: A standout vegan dining experience at Everett's. We reserved a 3-course vegan menu a day in advance and were impressed by how smoothly everything was handled—from prompt email confirmation to accommodating our request for a high chair and space for a stroller in a cozy setting. Service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Drinks arrived quickly (the Irish Old Fashioned is excellent), and every vegan dish was thoughtful, creative, and clearly made with care—far from the uninspired options vegans often encounter. What really stood out was the effort to include vegan guests in a true fine-dining experience. It felt considerate on a human level, not just a menu checkbox. If you’re vegan and comfortable dining at an omnivore restaurant, this is absolutely worth going out of your way for.

15/03/2026: Food was great, service generally great and staff very polite but used side plates were left blocking up the table and water wasn’t refilled without asking /coats weren’t taken etc.. small things that didn’t detract from a great meal overall. Could do with turning up the heating a little!

01/03/2026: The atmosphere the food, the cleanliness, the friendly staff. All 100%. What more can I say. Great place to meet up. Well done guys.

28/01/2026: Great atmosphere....food spectacular, every time l went into the Cove enjoyed ,would recommend to friends and family. Love the Cove

09/03/2026: We had the pleasure of performing for international women's day 2026, the staff went above and beyond for us. Accommodating every need we had or question we needed answering. The room was beautiful and intimate and they didn't mind us having some extra decorations. Can't wait for the next one 😉

08/03/2026: Nice place with good food and nice staff. We had a lovely lunch and we came back night time for the women's day concert. Historical place, recommended

02/01/2026: Overall, the food was not great. Most dishes came out, colder incorrect, and had to be remain. The oysters were the only thing that was worthwhile. Other than that you have an inexperienced kitchen and a wait staff, too worried about their tip and not about the customers experience.

28/12/2025: We really enjoyed it. The view was spectacular, the staff were very friendly, and the food was amazing.

19/01/2026: Wonderful experience.lovely friendly staff made us so welcome.food superb .

15/01/2026: Location of the hotel is great. No room services . Nice to stay
