The best restaurants in Waterford

30/11/2025: I loved my food — it was beautifully hot and full of flavour. He didn’t enjoy his as much, unfortunately. Service was ok… it really depended on who was looking after you. But is it too much to expect that the bottle of wine you order from the menu is opened for you — and maybe even poured? Small detail, but it all counts, doesn’t it? There was beautiful music, but it was a bit too low — we could hear every table around us talking, so the atmosphere felt a little flat. A small tweak could make a big difference. Still, I will definitely go back — the food was lovely.

17/11/2025: Couldn't Speaker any higher of the experience. Great service, atmosphere was nice. But it was the quality of the food that was the stand out, one of our starters was so nice we ordered a second one. An easy strong recommend, will be back without hesitation

26/10/2025: I’ve never actually been inside that place, but it’s incredibly photogenic from the outside, especially at night!

20/07/2025: Lovely local tradition pub, owned by the landlord not by a brewery. Good quality Guinness, great for a chat.

05/11/2025: Excellent place for a pint. Friendly, comfortable, atmospheric, clean and a lovely collection of local historical and cultural photos and artifacts.

18/10/2025: 12 of us went in on a Saturday evening and had a sing song. We were there maybe 3 hours and after taking our money, approx 700/800euros, and custom we were asked to keep the singing down as it was upsetting the locals in the bar......there were 3 of them. Would certainly not recommend this place with the way we were treated.

14/08/2025: Me and my daughter just came back from there today We were there for 3 days we were very happy could not ask for any better Al the staff behind the bar where lovely and friendly and the young lady tidying out room very nice and friendly we even got two bottles of water every day in our room very helpful so we'll done to all. So we will see you again hopefully soon From Noel pitman and daughter from Wexford

The atmosphere is very warm, quiet and relaxing—ideal for a family dinner. The food was tasty, well-presented.

26/08/2025: Nice and tasty gluten free pizza.

01/11/2025: While the food is gorgeous. The staff arnt the best, when you walk in and stand there waiting for a table none of the staff make eye contact with you just ignore you while they doing something, you should be spotted straight away and even just told to wait a minute and ill be right with you. Tables were left and not cleared. It's a bit of a grimy feel to to it but only for the food is lovely I wouldn't go back.

23/10/2025: we went in here for 1 drink on way home we didnt see the sign saying no children allowed after 9 so after we were served the drink they told us in a more nice way that we had to go after that drink there was no problem whatsoever with this that was our mistake -- there was a lady in there with a dog who stayed going mental & she did leave but not before she spoke to everyone on the way out while the dog was still going mental

21/05/2025: Yummy food, loved the crisps served with my toastie. Vibey atmosphere. Conveniently situated with seating available inside and outside

15/12/2025: Good food at Shake Dog Waterford. The spicy burger was perfectly seasoned, the Texas fries were bold and fiery, and the strawberry milkshake was outstanding. Great quality, great taste, and not a single complaint. Definitely worth a visit.

05/12/2025: A shadow of its former glory "Eddy Rockets". Got about 7 chips in a small bowl the burger was disaster, the bacon was raw on it and the onions raw as well. Ceasar salad is full of dressing and the teriyaki chicken is boiled not fried.All in all had it all eatin in about 2 minutes. Price on top of that was a rip off. Never eat there again. Loved the part on menu that said 20% extra charge on all items after midnight lol some neck on them

17/09/2025: Great food, great menu with healthy options. Option to dine in or take away.

04/09/2025: Very nice staff, the burger was just a little over done, I should have stuck with ramen but I'll definitely be back to try other things from the menu.
