Perched on Waterford’s bustling quayside, Dooley’s Hotel has been welcoming guests since 1947, proudly family-run for three generations. Behind its warm hospitality lies a real passion for local food.
The New Ship Restaurant is at the heart of the experience, celebrating the flavours of the region with menus crafted around the finest local produce, all showcased with creativity and care. The team works closely with trusted suppliers, ensuring that every plate reflects the seasons and the richness of the county’s larder.
For a more casual setting, the Dry Dock Bar & Bistro serves hearty dishes and lighter bites, with a strong focus on Irish classics elevated by quality, local ingredients. Guests can also enjoy a perfectly poured pint or a glass of carefully selected wine alongside their meal.
From breakfast through to dinner, Dooley’s champions Waterford’s food culture. Whether it’s a leisurely lunch, a celebratory dinner, or simply soaking up the atmosphere with friends, dining here is about more than just eating—it’s about connecting with the story of the region, one dish at a time.
