McLeary's
Waterford
08/10/2026: Great food and atmosphere. Food was fresh and flavorful. Service was wonderful. Would definitely eat here again
03/10/2026: We came on McLeary's by chance. So glad we did. They don't take bookings but they suggested if we were there by 17.45 we would get a table. How right they were,by 18.00 it was full. They operate a very good wait system ,advising people to return at a given time. It works well,and certainly stops the 'no shows'.
The food we had was probably the best in our recent 2 weeks in Ireland. Superb, totally recommend đ

Paddy Coyneâs Pub
Waterford
05/09/2026: Amazing food and service. Fish is so fresh. Would recommend to all
01/09/2026: A very nice pub. We had excellent oysters with Tabasco (a new discovery!) and mussels, both served in very generous portions: one with a tomato, vodka, and chili sauce, and the other with a traditional white wine sauce.
After an Irish coffee, the owner offered us a glass of whiskey.

Berkana Bakery
Waterford
27/10/2026: Casual, convenient & bright. Good for Brunch or lunch. They make there own bread. Nice variety available.
22/10/2026: The food and coffee are lovely, but unfortunately, the service is subpar. There is a rather pretentious atmosphere that makes you feel as though the staff consider themselves above their paying customers. Itâs disappointing, because the quality of the food and coffee is good, but the overall experience really lets the place down. Sadly, I wonât be returning.

We had the âMeat Ball Heroâ and âRoast Chicken & Chorizo â it was divine.

The Olive Cafe John Roberts square
Waterford
29/10/2026: Their soda cans are really dirty, and so are their outside tables. Thereâs barely any room inside; so youâll most likely have to sit outside unless you reserve a table. The food is quite good however, and the employees are very nice, but the waiting time is a bit long.
28/10/2026: Unreal food banging tunes canât complain
