The best restaurants in Waterford

26/08/2025: Was in there today and got myself a Cappucino, it was awful, The coffee is very very acidic, the cocoa powder they use isnt great either, its not the first time ive questioned the taste but it will be the last, I dont know if its the type of Beans, The dosing in the machine, the machine or the water but that coffee is not right. its actually sickening

24/07/2025: had a cold drink it was refreshing

29/04/2026: this is the second time we have had a delivery from Roma in Dungarvan Everything was available and piping hot on arrival. delivery person was friendly and polite cant fault fantastic 5Stars

27/04/2026: Horrible food and very bad manners . Its called roma but they are estern European with there stupid manners don't recommend

22/05/2026: Favourite pub in Dungarvan It has a nice mix of the old and the new. For us "older", say mature, folk there the traditional side of the pub on the lowest level. For the younger folk, there's the noisier upstairs so there's the best of both worlds whatever your tastes.

19/05/2026: We had a hen weekend in Dungarvan recently and we couldn't be happier with the service that The Lady Belle offered. I got in contact with Deirdre a few months ago and she has been so helpful and supportive in organising this weekend. Any requests we had were implemented without question and lots of options were given. Communication was excellent throughout and as for her staff on the weekend, they were fantastic and again so helpful. We had the top floor as our private area for a few different activities. Would highly recommend Deirdre and The Lady Belle for any gathering and celebrations!

18/02/2026: Beautiful meal and lovely staff

13/12/2025: A few of us went here for the early bird deal. All our meals and starters were delicious and the poppodoms with dips were unreal. Also, the naan was the best naan I’ve ever had! I had the Saag, highly recommend! We will be back.

05/04/2026: Had a great experience at this restaurant! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The menu had a good variety, so there’s something for everyone. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel really welcome from the moment we arrived. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable, perfect for both a casual meal and a special occasion. Service was quick without feeling rushed, which I really appreciated. Overall, a lovely dining experience — I’d definitely come back and recommend it to others!

04/04/2026: Best Irish breakfast and coffee. A good place to enjoy with friends and family. 🩷🩷

14/03/2026: Food amazing value for money definitely worth eating here

07/12/2025: The food was so delicious and the personnel was so kind and welcoming! I had an amazing experience

07/03/2026: Terrible rude service, items missing from order didn't care or offer to send them. I was still charged though-so basically robbed. When I rang the restaurant the man on the phone couldn't care less and blamed the app aven though I saw on my screen that I had ordered garlic bread. He said I should get in touch with the company as the app is nothing to do with them. No wonder they have high staff turn over, nobody cares.

29/11/2025: Just off main Waterford to cork road very helpful if you ring in a order plenty of spaces to park up and eat your food

31/08/2025: Cheap food good prices lovely lady helped with gluten free options.

18/08/2025: Great food,pleasant staff and good atmosphere, beer garden is lovely.

02/11/2025: The spring rolls were HUGE! Tasty food for average price.

30/09/2025: Ordered spicebox waiting 40 mins food came and it was raw chicken was all pink inside absolutely disgraceful

07/03/2026: Put through an order online at 11:15 paid over 30e and then about 5 minutes later they cancelled the order. Had to wait until the following day to ring them and was told it would be between 3 to 5 days to get them money back. Whoever answered the phone was in no way apologetic made it seem like it was my fault. Won't be ordering again

25/02/2026: The portions are very small and extremely poorly cooked. I have ordered the mushroom and chicken breast soup several times. It was basically just water, with a few mushrooms floating on top and some long strips of chicken breast. No greens, no seasoning, no flavor – absolutely nothing that would make it a proper soup. I also ordered two portions of chicken noodles. Again, just some tasteless noodles – honestly terrible – and poorly prepared chicken. The food is definitely not worth the money. Even though the restaurant is only 2 km away, I waited almost two hours for the delivery. The packages arrived wet. The whole experience was very disappointing. I absolutely do not recommend it.

21/10/2025: Very friendly and welcoming staff! We had hot chocolate and wonderful brownies! Highly recommended!

20/10/2025: Staff went out of their way to accommodate me with my toddler. They moved furniture around, gave us a window seat to keep him entertained, brought out colouring pages and gave him a free chocolate treat. My only criticism of Carter's is the paper cups and plates but I will be returning again as it is definitely a family friendly cafe. Nice coffee also.

28/10/2025: Usually love Hook & Ladder, but last visit wasn't the best experience. We couldnt get out of there quickly enough literally tormented by the same looped 4 traks of 'musak' and at way too loud a volume for comfort. We couldn't believe none of the staff seemed to be aware that the tracks were replaying, I think we heard them almost a dozen times. The other unbelievably loud noise compounded the first. Five or six late teen to early twenties waitor/waitresses were making a right racket having a congress at the counter, blissfully unaware of the volume they were at. Very nice, each one, but we genuinely felt agitated and stressed by the time we got out of there. Not a visit we'd ever like to repeat.

18/10/2025: One of my favourite spots for brunch in Waterford. We recently hosted a baby shower here and the service was lovely. We were accommodated nicely and also the food was great. Highly recommend for a cozy and relaxing vibe .

02/12/2025: Service used to bet a lot better , new group of staff alot slower at serving always a que a mile long in the morning and seem to be making one coffee at a time

16/11/2025: Such lovely girls working here. Always so chatty and friendly

04/02/2026: Bad service and don't reply to emails.

25/10/2025: Always on top with their services.Kate welcome you with smile every time you walk in and she is happy to help you with absolutely everything. Highly recommend 😍
