Family friendly restaurant in the heart of Waterford City, serving delicious award-winning breakfasts, brunches, and lunches, all made using premium ingredients from local suppliers.
A bit about us…
No.9 Barronstrand St. opened in 2013 as a bustling 150 seat café in the heart of Waterford city. The aim was to offer high quality casual dining using the best quality ingredients all cooked and prepared on the premises. We immediately became Waterford’s busiest restaurants with a reputation for excellent customer service, and we won the title of ”Irelands Best Family Friendly Restaurant” in 2015 and 2016. Our daily specials are made from ingredients from our neighbours in the Mediterranean Food Store, which results in a unique dining experience.
Once we began attracting young families, we created an in-store playroom, and even our own activity book to keep our younger customers busy.
