The best restaurants in Waterford

20/02/2026: Nice pint, great location- very central! Friendly service 🙂

30/11/2025: never been but heard dj stephen richard's live mixes on soundcloud and want to show love and respect from bangkok. dope!

17/03/2026: OK place. Reasonable prices, wife and I ordered burgers. Not impressed, cheap cheap cheap, you can find better quality ingredients at a chipper. Place needs TLC. Staff were nice thought.

02/02/2026: Disappointing visit. The place looks tired and in need of a serious refresh, and there was absolutely no atmosphere. Not somewhere I’d rush back to.Food was good

15/02/2026: The service was quick and very friendly, however the only let down was the food. The dishes came out suspiciously quick. The starters were good, but small portions. The pasta was very bad, chicken was like ready to eat chicken not fresh and the sauce was watery, pretty bland, and expected more from an Italian restaurant. The pizza base was so thin and burnt, with the toppings falling off, and again watery. We got a cookie sandwich and tiramisu for desert, cookie was hard and basic Hp ice cream. The tiramisu was basic nothing special. Disappointed in the food overall.

20/12/2025: I have been eating at espresso for years now. I visited the other night and unfortunately left disappointed . The menu appears to have been reduced and a number of the Italian dishes seem to have been removed such as the Tagliatelle Al Fungi (which is strange considering it’s an Italian restaurant). I thought the food was very overpriced for what it was, €19 for a carbonara! And hardly any pancetta in it. For dessert, my friend and I ordered tiramisu’s and tea and were given cups that were visibly dirty and given no spoons to stir our milk. I was also Disappointed to see the portion of Tiramisu had greatly reduced but the price had increased. Overall, the experience was disappointing and I felt like it was poor value for money and I don’t think I’ll be in any rush to return.

08/11/2025: Got a brownie and a cinnamon roll from here, and was not disappointed at all!!

29/10/2025: Fabulous coffee, pastries, bread and superb service. Love this place

30/04/2026: Hi everyone! Did you know that Sake Dog now offers Mexican food? We were pleasantly surprised and decided to try their burritos-they were delicious. The service was great, the music was enjoyable, and the place itself is clean, bright, and welcoming. I highly recommend it -definitely worth a visit!

16/04/2026: Great value for money food is always good 👍

08/05/2026: Recently discovered Romayo’s, and simply refuse to go towards any other take away, it’s so hard to pick something because it’s all just so good! love their new spicebag, always been a fan of chinese spicebag but always thought they lacked chipper chips. Romayo’s fixes this by providing real chicken with fresh chipper chips. Highly recommend!!!

13/04/2026: €8 for a tiny chicken fillet wrap, chicken dry and bland, wrap itself very stale, cold by the time I'd left the shop. Customer service absolutely shocking, staff more concerned with laughing and joking between themselves rather than preparing food or serving customers. As well as that, none of the staff wearing gloves or hair nets, raw and cooked food handled with their bare hands. Will not be back, steer well clear.

26/10/2025: A bot empty down the back but whats there is fantastic.

12/10/2025: Great place, good choice of sandwiches and pastries. Recomen!

09/05/2026: The. Worst staff working. There take. Your money. And. Don't giwe. The Food!!!!

25/07/2025: We had our wedding cake made by Rob&Steve's as we love their cakes. We had a two tier red velvet and lemon cake and it was delicious. I got my flowers from Bizzie Lizzies and dropped them in and the lads arranged them beautifully on the cake. They also delivered and set up our cake at the venue.

11/07/2025: OMG fantastic selection of cakes and confectionery.

06/01/2026: A must go to great place right in the heart of the town

12/04/2026: Love GIY love the food and fantastic staff

24/08/2025: Popped in for breakfast. Mini breakfast was grand although a euro or two more expensive then other places. Staff are nice.

20/08/2025: I have to say this was my favorite little spot I spent 2 days in Waterford and this little gem was right across the way from me I'm coliac and get left out from their amazing menu I can't tell you how rare it is for me to enter an establishment and dine like everyone else in the place thank you so much the food was amazing the atmosphere was class and the staff were too notch helpful not only accommodating to 2 moody pre teens but 3 tired adults even helped us with bus time tables I highly and whole heartedly recommend this place and can not wait to make a return for some delisous food.

06/05/2026: Delish and a beautiful place. Worth a visit, staff are friendly and the food is plated so we'll.

03/05/2026: I don’t eat in, only takeaway so I can only comment on food, The general tso and spider futomaki is probably on my death row meal, 10/10

05/05/2026: We usually order food from this restaurant but yesterday my family and went to dine in. Fantastic food and brilliant staff. I highly recommend this restaurant in Waterford if you are looking for authentic Indian/ Pakistani food.

01/03/2026: Worst Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to no flavour from food whatsoever starters were burned and dry and main course had no flavour at all rice was from microwave staff were friendly but doesn’t help when the food is rubbish definitely don’t recommend at all
