The Grattan
Waterford
11/01/2026: Very warm and welcoming atmosphere. They really go above and beyond for their customers and it shows. We stopped by while it was raining out for a bit of food before our train and was greeted with nothing but kindness. We had the wings and soup, and they also prepared a toastie on request. 10/10 would recommend.
05/01/2026: The place is nice, the food is homemade, and the atmosphere is pleasant. The worst thing is that the owner is quite intrusive; he talks a lot and takes too many liberties, in my opinion. The lady, however, is very friendly.

27/10/2025: A very good place, the food was delicious and plentiful. The service was also very good.
It's a place I would recommend.
The only thing we didn't like was that they don't have very good ventilation, so if you eat inside, your clothes will smell like food afterwards.
