JARRZ
Waterford
12/07/2026: Read this was a popular sports spot in the city. Met expectations!
Watched a World Cup quarter final. Busy spot with lots of movement. Screens left and right.
14/05/2026: We recently had a small 40th birthday party down in Jarrz and it was perfect. I was dealing with Suzanne via email beforehand to confirm and she was very helpful. We wanted somewhere with a good atmosphere, where we could get food and also watch the Arsenal match. It must be the best sports bar in Waterford at the minute with the sheer amount of screens and every single sports catered for. We had the match on in front of us, we ordered food down from Espresso and the bar staff were very good. There was also karaoke at the end of the night so our party were happy out!

La Fontana
Waterford
16/08/2026: Great restaurant. Lovely food however disappointed that there is a requirement to order one main per person. Will prevent me from going again as we like to order a few starters abd pizza/pasta to share.
14/08/2026: Unfortunately we have to leave a bad review. We walked not being local and knowing the menu.
We have changed our mind as we have a child with a disability and while deciding we asked for a big bottle of tap water. Was brought a tiny bottle of water. We apologised when we left and was charged 5e for the bottle of water that we didn't touch.
Very bad service do not recommend.

Bishop's Palace Café
Waterford
18/11/2025: Beautiful restaurant with lovely food and very nice staff. Visited there today while visiting Waterford. I'll be back.
07/11/2025: We ate here yesterday. It was my first time eating here in over 18 months and I really enjoyed it. I had the Vegan Bap which was Brioche Bap which was slightly toasted with Halloumi Cheese, fried egg, avocado, lettuce, tomato and a nice relish on the side. I did apply all of the relish to my bun which was very tasty. This was so delicious - one of those times you make a noice when you eat because of the lovely taste. Afterwards we had a coffee and the Tunisian orange cake which was very light but very tasty indeed. Service was excellent and it was quiet enough to talk. I look forward to returning.

The Haven Hotel
Dunmore east
19/06/2026: Stayed over the Easter , Mac Fleedwood band playing sound was terrible seated tables but people standing in front blocking view . Spoke to Manager /owner who was extremely unhelpful and quite rude .. rooms were very dusty but breakfast was lovely 😊
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.

Tom Mahers
Waterford
15/07/2026: What a unique place. It felt like I can become a local here. The barman was nice enough to answer some questions about their whiskey, and even gave us a little to taste, for free. Although he didnt seem like one for small talk or chats, but he did try.
He has extreme attention to detail, which I found sweet, it was like he wanted everything to be just right for us.
The atmosphere was amazing. I wish I could be a fly on the wall and just exist there for a while.
13/02/2026: Great Pub!! Definitely you have to stop here for a pint or two !

UNioN Wine Bar & Kitchen
Waterford
17/08/2026: Food was delicious and very well thought out Wine explained and very good too lovely fish gougons and real chips for children A good venue wish them well
15/07/2026: Excellent experience! I had two starters, which were more than enough for me, and both were absolutely delicious—the crab salad and the scallops were outstanding. Of course, I still had room for dessert, and the dark chocolate pavé with raspberry sorbet was the perfect finish to the meal.
The service was excellent throughout—attentive, friendly, and very knowledgeable about both the dishes and the wine, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
If you’re ever in Waterford City, be sure to treat yourself to this fantastic restaurant. Highly recommended!
