The best restaurants in Waterford

18/06/2026: I had lunch here for the first time yesterday and I think it’s now my favourite place! The pies are incredibly tasty, there’s a good selection of food and the staff are so friendly! I also found out that it’s a real local café with a long history, which makes me respect the place and its owners even more. One of the nice perks – and probably one of the most important ones – is that you get a proper, tasty lunch, just like at home, for a modest price 😻

19/02/2026: I go here regularly for my lunch and i must say the the food and staff are all amazing. Fantastic value for a fresh and delicious selection of cold and hot meals to suit your mood.

02/07/2026: We recently had the great pleasure of dealing with Tom and the team. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful every step of the way. We truly appreciate all the guidance and support he provided throughout the process and would highly recommend his services.

16/06/2026: I recently had the pleasure to deal with Jerri-Ann Durney at Sherry Fitz-Rohan, and she is extremely efficient and helpful. She was not even my agent and still has gone out of her way to help me through this process while I was out of the country. So glad to meet her and the team and they will be my Waterford agent for life!

19/08/2026: Excellent selection of shops and two good cafes, plenty of parking and there is toilet facilities too.

31/07/2026: I’d lunch yesterday and today (called in whilst visiting UHW)…. Enjoyed - both days.

08/07/2026: The best pizza in Waterford by far. Definitely recommend it 👌

06/07/2026: If you aren’t getting your pizza from Pizza Dome, you are seriously missing out! I just left after having the absolute best experience. The staff here are incredibly lovely and genuinely care about their customers—we had a great chat about the Portugal vs. Spain match tonight while waiting, and they even threw in a free dip out of pure kindness. ​As for the food? Unbelievable. The pizza looks and tastes incredible, perfectly cooked with fresh toppings. This isn't just a takeaway; it’s a spot with real community spirit. Do yourself a favor and run down here tonight!

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.

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.
