The best restaurants in Waterford

09/08/2026: Food was fantastic. There was so much on the menu I wanted to try. I had the goats cheese salad and the chilli prawns. Both were absolutely delicious. Staff were friendly and we had great service even on a very busy night. We knew it was going to be good when the taxi man told us we picked the best place in town when he dropped us there.

08/08/2026: Cannot stress enough how good the service is , the atmosphere the staff the food ! Big shout out to Quila ! Waitress of the year award goes too!!

01/08/2026: Its was closed Under new management

01/06/2026: A gem of a place...traditional irish dishes dome superbly. Great staff , and the personal touch from the owner is wonderful and unique.

10/08/2026: Clean place, a good range of hot fresh foods on the menu, coffee and iced lattés. Comfortable booths, some outdoor seating. Decor bland. Very convenient after visiting the garden centre and hardware stores. Plenty of parking right outside.

06/08/2026: The owner worked us in tho this busy restaurant was full. I ordered a fish pie which was superb, added some veggies which I was almost too full to eat, and G ordered plaice and loved it. We were so glad to have found this wonderful restaurant.

02/08/2026: To me, this place is a hidden Gem in Waterford. We have eaten there a few times now. The bread is so fresh and the sandwich combinations are really nice. I'd highly recommend it for a lunch option.

01/08/2026: Had an excellent sandwich, spicy salami. Sizes are very generous and the bread is so fresh. Polite and prompt service.

09/07/2026: Fabulous food. Perfect portions. Short but perfectly composed menu. Ill be back.

04/07/2026: Wow just wow!! This was the nicest food I ever got in any restaurant, I got the tagliatelle with mushroom sauce tonight and it was just amazing!! I came for my birthday and the waiters even sang happy birthday and had a candle in my desert, such a lovely touch!! The waiters were so friendly and even showed my little boy a trick with toothpicks which he loved! Thank you so much , best restaurant in Ireland 🙏

04/08/2026: Friendly staff. Minimal portion. We came for a bite to eat around 4 pm, so we didn't want a main course. We ordered the Caesar salad starter for €14. The taste was good, but this was a really small portion. There were barely 3 small pieces of chicken in it. A shame.

29/07/2026: Everything was good and delicious!)

12/08/2026: Perfect place for a typical breakfast and the bar staff are very friendly

09/08/2026: The food is great, but there's a discrepancy between the menu published on Google Maps (not just the pictures, but also the menu itself) and what is available at the restaurant. The East Road Grill was supposed to cost €13.95 each and be served with tea/americano, but it actually costs €14.95 and the tea/mericano is excluded. The difference of more than €4 per person is significant.

08/08/2026: Rarely have we eaten such an exquisite meal with such friendly staff! AAA Plus! Thank you! It couldn't be better! We came back again, and it was truly exceptionally delicious, with impeccable service. We have many great restaurants in Switzerland, but this one is among the very best! Thank you ♥️

02/08/2026: Possibly the best 3 course ever stunning!

27/07/2026: Sat down for 12 minutes did not get served. Large group came 5 minutes after we arrived and sat down next to us and were served first as the waitress turned her back on us. Bit rude and bad service.

25/07/2026: Difficult to score as we were turned away at 04.10 on a Saturday as they were closing..

15/08/2026: Alexander was top class, absolute gentleman and clearly passionate about his craft. He gave us his signature whiskey sour recipe and it was delicious, the best I ever had. We also tried a lavender cocktail which was a pleasant surprise. A Great bar with very friendly and accommodating staff.

09/08/2026: Great Guinness and Alex the Manager makes the best Cocktails. The atmosphere was great, the pub has a great interior and vibe. Would definitely recommend!

07/08/2026: Excellent coffee provided, beautiful calm seating area within café. I am deeply sorry, I forget the beautiful ladies name that served me my coffee. However, I said to her I like my coffee dark and strong, like herself. She was obviously local, extremely professional about her work. She provided me with honey for my coffee, which I ❤️, thank you for your kind assistance. This lady should get a pay rise as she added to the ambiance of the Cafe. Amazing selection of wines also provided within this establishment. Local products on hand. I would highly recommend a visit to this location. Thank you for a short but beautiful experience ❤️. On this ladies advice, I then headed for the Haven in Dunmore east. A sunny day in my beautiful country 🇮🇪.
