The Cove
Waterford
22/04/2026: The best Sunday roast in town now that the greenway manor is closed. Portions are great and its got a varied menu.
10/04/2026: I was never served with such bad attitude by a waitress. I duno her name but she had dark hair and threw menus at us and looked annoyed thar she was taking our order. I could hear her cursing and givin out and she didn’t check if we were ok. I wish someone else served us. Very unprofessional. What a pity because the food was really tasty and the portion size was great. Disappointing service that will stop people going to the cove.

Katty Barry's
Waterford
14/05/2026: Got recommended this bar as a place for Guinness. Every pint was cream and the cheapest pub we went to all weekend. Live music but you can still have a chat. Staff are super friendly and great to tell you about the local area. I'd go back to Waterford just to go here for a pint here. Highly recommend.

The Park Hotel Holiday Homes & Leisure Centre
Dungarvan
02/09/2025: Had out family holiday here this summer. Staff were so friendly, lovely hotel and the food was excellent. Dined out in 3 other places too and the food was spectacular. Dungarvan is a lovely town and plenty to keep kids entertained from playground, to beaches, pools and Greenway.
29/07/2025: Far too expensive for what you get. Rooms are more like 3* standard, Wi-Fi is very poor, breakfast is "just okay," and the parking lot is usually overcrowded. The sauna is very small, at no more than 3 square meters.

The Haven Hotel
Dunmore east
29/04/2026: Called in with friends for lunch, the waitress in the restaurant was friendly and service was quick, food was very good, the only reason I didn't give a better rating was i found the receptionist rude.
05/04/2026: We visited as a group of seven and came specifically for the restaurant. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The food was good, with plenty of options to suit everyone in the group. Dessert was yummy.
There’s also lots of outdoor seating, which would be perfect in the summer.
