Networking event celebrates new partnership to showcase food and drink

Taste Waterford - group at Coach House Coffee

Coach House Coffee was the setting for our networking event yesterday (21 October 2025) to mark the exciting partnership between Taste Waterford and Visit Waterford.

Members and stakeholders came together to hear about the organisations aim to ensure food and drink is core to the visitor experience in the city and county.

Richard Povey, Taste Waterford’s project manager, spoke about the world-class food and drink offering in the county, and their latest campaigns working with Visit Waterford. And Mealla Fahey, manager at the Lismore Heritage Centre, talked about Visit Waterford, and their marketing which last year achieved a global reach of 80 million people.

It was also a great opportunity for new and existing members to network, and enjoy delicious food and drink from the team at Coach House Coffee.
