Waterford’s Apple Market
Best known for its selection of pubs, eateries and nightlife, the area has been revamped in recent years (huge shiny ceiling included) and lies in heart of Waterford. The Apple Market is where you can start and end your night – flitting between pubs and enjoying a drink with friends (subject to COVID restrictions, of course). It’s where you can relax and soak up the atmosphere and watch the world go by. Discover some of the best pubs, bars and eateries on your doorstep in The Apple Market right here.
Pubs & Bars
Now where to first? Two’s company, three’s a crowd…
Heery’s Bar & Restaurant
Good food, great cocktails and wine on offer. What’s more, Heery’s have outdoor dining which is a bonus right now. An enjoyable spot or a drink with a friend.
Geoff’s Cafe Bar
A legendary place for a pint in the heart of the Apple Market. Catch up with friends over lunch, relax and enjoy being waited on and listen to some decent music range playing overhead. We spoke to Anthony Mullane, Bar Manager there last year, check out the interview.
Market Bar
Bang in the middle of Waterford’s Apple Market district and neatly tucked in beside Heery’s pub, this pub has a lovely atmosphere and has a small stage set up at the back. Big selection of craft beer on tap.

Some more top notch bars to enjoy a tipple or two.
Kazbar
Known for its late bar pre-COVID, this venue has multiple levels and good outdoor space for lite bites and pints. Nice decor too.
Revolution Craft Beer & Whiskey Bar
This whiskey bar has won many awards and has almost every kind of drink you could think of! They make really, nice chicken wings to order too and are set up for outdoor dining.
The Hub
Traditional Irish pub on the corner of the Apple Market. Popular with locals and those who enjoy a cozy drinking environment. Before COVID, the pub put on live music many nights of the week and will do so again when possible.
Davy Mac’s Bar
Love G&T’s? With over 70 Gins and winners of ‘The Best Gin & Tonic‘ award, a refreshing drink here is a must. The pub has been beautifully restored and is a lovely place to enjoy a quiet drink in comfort. Their cocktail menu is great and their gin menu has all sorts of exciting twists to the traditional G&T. Well worth a visit.

Chips, or pizza & ice-cream?
Gino’s Pizza Applemarket
Love pizza? We do! Gino’s pizza and ice-cream parlor is a longstanding establishment here in Waterford and a favourite with locals. Reasonable prices, delicious toppings and with homemade ice cream to follow, sure what more could you want?
Hillbilly’s
Sometimes you just want a box of tasty chicken and chips with a tub of curry sauce. This takeaway offers freshly cooked Irish chicken breasts that are hard to beat. Their burgers are pretty mouth-watering too…try for yourself.
