The Three Shippes — Restaurant in Waterford

We walked in about 19:30. Outside the sign said dinner a la carte ended at 20:00. We didn't know if this ment dinner service ended at 8 or of after 8 you could only eat specific meals, so we went in. The atmosphere was warm and exactly what you would expect an old pub to look like. We were greater warmly and seated, but across the way I saw an irate chef staring at us. Dinner ended at 8. I rushed my party to order and as soon as we got our food the chef stormed out of the kitchen and out the doors. He wasn't happy. But we were. The food he gave us was awesome! He did not forgo the quality of his food in spite of his mood. And if he did I couldnt imagine the food being better. We got beef stew and potato soup and it was hearth, flavorful, and the portions were huge. The restaurant is outside the center but...

The owner of this place is so rude I now understand why the place is so empty. You want to be spoken to like a child? ring Justin. No words, tried to organise a 21st for my sister, and contradicted what we were told about the venue ie areas we could use, music we could play etc and reminded her several times "he was the boss". boss of what? Boss of the tumble weed blowing around the place in there? He must own the place because the revenue he generates from the two chess players in there twice a week wouldn't pay half the (really nice) barmans wages for the evening.

I hope you take this feedback on board Justin, maybe enrol yourself some customer service type...

Huge bar near the wonderful People's Park just on the outskirts of the city.Chess club every Tuesday night,,but it's a nice pub if you'd like a quiet pint or to watch the football..they do food,but I can't comment as I've never eaten here...seems to have standard fare(Soup and sandwiches chicken Kiev's,casserole/stew,fish and chips etc.)Plenty of room and a cosy snug with fire at the front.Has potential to be a great pub.Could do with a makeover...
