The best restaurants in Waterford

19/07/2026: Fantastic spot for fish and seafood

25/06/2026: Brilliant restaurant, along with their other place, Fish Shop in Dublin. The best F+C, with a crisp white wine. It would be our restaurant of choice BUT it doesn't have veg/vegan so my poor wife has to stay at home, hence my 4*. We always reserve, so no wait.

08/07/2026: Hidden gem with an amazing view! Don't let the small entrance fool you—once you step inside, the place opens up into a fantastic, spacious bar! The food was absolutely great, the staff were incredibly friendly, and you just can't beat the fabulous sea views. Highly recommend stopping by!

06/07/2026: Cool building but staff were weird. Really weird guy with a beard (I think a bartender/waiter named John or john joe or or something similar) in the staff made my group super uncomfortable. Could feel him watching the woman in my group non stop. Then he kept going out of his way to try talk to them and we left early bc of this. Felt like a dog waiting for his dinner 😭 He tried to mention hanging out with one of the woman in my group and it got so awkward in a creepy way. It’s a shame as the rest of the staff were so professional. all the woman were not impressed

09/08/2026: Was here when on holidays ,this became our go to place for evenings. Staff so good ,shack out back for food ,great pints , music some evenings which was great. Great outside space too .

29/07/2026: The chicken chorizo sweet chilli jalapeno toastie was amazing, and the coffee tastes great which is a huge +

14/07/2026: Very popular busy place. If you're in a hurry,, seriously why are you hurrying if you're at the beach.. go somewhere less popular. This place is popular for a reason. Lovely staff. Plenty of choice, including oat coffees and I also got a lovely, very rich, yummy vegan peanut type bar. You can sit in or out. I chose out because, again, beach day, lots of little birds will come and stare at you when you're sitting out but unless you decide to share they'll leave you alone. If you do decide to share you'll be mobbed 😂 which is ok if you're a bird lover. Go get some coffee and food there, you won't regret it 10/10

04/07/2026: Fantastic pint, great craic, and when we were there an amazing musician called Taylor. 5 stars all round.

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.

10/05/2026: Heard about this little gem but never got there until last night! What a great pub, great atmosphere, unique surroundings, excellent pint of Guinness and friendly folk! I will be back many a night God willing!

15/07/2026: Friendly staff, a lovely pint of Guinness too, well done folks, keep up the good work 👏

07/07/2026: Notice to Customers I would like to share a concern regarding my experience today while watching the Argentina World Cup match. I ordered three pints of Heineken and was charged three different prices: ● 1st pint: €6.40 ● 2nd pint: €6.20 ● 3rd pint: €6.70 When I asked about the difference, I was told it was due to “human error.” However, I was not able to speak with the manager about the matter. Please review your bill carefully before paying. While mistakes can happen, customers should receive a clear explanation and consistent pricing. This was a disappointing experience.

21/01/2026: Amazing experience so much fun totally recommend

28/07/2026: Very high quality coffee beans, always freshly roasted, great taste and great prices. Staff are all very friendly.

05/05/2026: ’ve been ordering coffee from this Blue butterfly for a while now, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. The coffee is absolutely wonderful—rich, fresh, and you can really taste the quality. I also love that they have organic coffee, which makes it even better. On top of that, their customer service is consistently amazing. Every interaction has been friendly, helpful, and efficient, which makes the whole experience feel personal and reliable. Highly recommend to anyone who appreciates great coffee and great service
