The best restaurants in Waterford

15/06/2024: Great place to eat, out of the way of the crowds but still close enough to join the beach. At the moment I think the place is temporarily closed, such a shame.

06/10/2024: A local recommend this pub to us as we were travelling and just passing through the town. It was the best food we ate out in the 2 weeks we were travelling in south Ireland. Food was exceptional. Fresh, fast and hot. We had Vol au Vents and wraps. Onion rings were delicious too

16/09/2024: Popped in the anchor and found it to be quite busy, not packed so had a calm atmosphere. The two members of staff who were working there were friendly and polite and a credit to the owners, nothing was too much trouble. Ordered falafel wrap and the Irish burger which were outstanding. Compliments to the chef.

18/09/2023: Dog friendly. Good food. Little expensive i thought but it was really nice flavour. Chicken gougons had a harf cripsy coating and the smash burger was really good. Order took a bit long but we'll worth the wait.

02/09/2023: Good food, friendly staff. I had "Squash bhaji" which was really good. Chips could have less or non salt, especially for kids meals.

22/06/2024: 100 percent authentic Italian pizza and pasta ever ate 🍝🍕best place in Waterford @pheonix food market and reasonably priced

31/05/2024: Can't rate the food I got sent here via Google maps. Seemed impressed showed inside and outside of a restaurant on photos. Arrived at said address nothing. Needs to update Google page. If u haven't a restaurant please don't pretend u do. Apparently it's A converted horsebox.

05/05/2025: Shocking, would let a 3 year old in with a 40 year olds ID absolutely plagued with underage drinking.

22/03/2025: Little disappointed in the chicken dish , 4 bits of chicken in a bowl of watery sauce., Service is great very friendly....

05/03/2025: We ordered from Naas in February for collection and they forgot an item (only prawn crackers but still really wanted them for with our meal). We drove 15 mins down 15 mins home to get them and it was sh*t but they were very apologetics and said they would add 20 euro to our account as we order regular enough every other week. Called today less than 2 weeks later and when I said about the credit they said no they would just give us free prawn crackers now. I said it wasn’t the prawn crackers it was the 30 mins drive down and back and my ruined meal the previous time. I should have got them to replace the whole meal at the time but was trying to be nice about it. Will not be ordering again very poor customer service. They have lost a regular customer.

31/03/2024: Got the chance to have a few pints there on its final night in business. It will be missed.

08/02/2024: Great little place, nice pint, small room, open fire, friendly chat with locals.

06/07/2025: What a wonderful surprise, website photos dont reflect beautifully restored building/guest rooms and 'continental breakfast' doesnt adequately describe tasty, hot (& coeliac-friendly!) breakfast offered. Wonderful hostess too!

18/05/2025: Great little hotel. Full of old building character. But also modern, clean and convenient.

12/12/2023: Excellent staff and very friendly atmosphere

12/12/2023: An amazing bar on the quay in Waterford Live music Pool table Friendly service Great pints
