    There are various good pubs in waterford depending on what you like..

    The cross roads where Parnell St meets John st is where most of the pubs and clubs
    are based... Here are most of the most popular pubs, Geoffs, Muldoons, Masons,
    Rubys lounge and the Woodman.. further up John St are Geoffs and The Kasbah..

    The clubs here are Rubys, upstairs over the Woodman and Rubys lounge and Oxygen
    which is upstairs over Muldoons..

    Another club called Axis Mundi is down on the Quay side opposite the Tower Hotel and behind the Round Tower called reginalds tower..

    Visiting places:

    If you have a car, go to Waterford crystal and do the tour.. fairly interesting..
    There is also Tramore which is about 7 miles away, Dunmore about 10 miles away.

    If you're into history there is Reginalds tower on the end of the key and half way up
    teh key is the Granary which is like a high tech museum of the history of waterford
    and from what i hear is fairly good too.. but i dunno, never been there..

    Thats about it really.. :)

    Play safe now! Waterford/Wexford debate can be fought on a seprate thread! :)

    Danni there a tour of old Waterford which I understand is well worth the 2 hours it takes, just be ready for lots of Yanks going "how Quaint!"

    Also do the Granary on the Quay-O'Connell Street and of course Reginalds Tower.

    One more question! Is there a Dunnes Stores in Waterford??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc


    Yeah - the Mens, Food and Drapery section of Dunnes is in city square and the womens section is just outside city square.
