    Can people please let me know what bars are remaining open in Waterford or have suitable outdoor areas to remain open with the current level 3 lockdown?

    I actually didn't go out at all the few weeks they were all back in business and was looking forward to catching up with 2 close friends over a few pints this weekend.

    Thanks,

    Walshs in Georges St is open too. As is the outdoor set-up outside T+H's (also run by Walshs I think?). In fairness at the moment nobody is going to a pub for a session. I think its just to maintain a little bit of normality in the current climate. I would not begrudge anyone sitting down for a couple of pints, switching off and watching the world go by. I happened to be in town mid afternoon yesterday and the T+H's set up was almost full as were the two tables outside Walshs. This for an overcast Wednesday afternoon too. Sure there is some folk who would prefer if we all stayed at home but then again perhaps that is where the current surge in cases is coming from : home drinking, BBQ's & house parties since the Summer? So it looks like you are damned if you do and you are damned if you don't!

    Thanks for the recommendations lads.

    After speaking with my friends it looks like we will be postponing our pub visit to a future date when things calm back down.]

    Might try a beer garden with the wife for some lunch over the weekend though.

    I thought somewhere like Pinks would have stayed open considering their large open area? but they are going to be closed completely for three weeks.

    The Craftsman seem to be open for outdoor dining. There is a table with a parasol on it near the side plus they are using the outdoor smoking shed as a table too. Hope they gave it a good clean before they serve food in that!

    Still only can serve up to 15 people. So it's paying for waiters, chefs, food for serving 4/5 tables every hour or two versus closing and taking the Covid PUP

    I think once the open/in stock kegs get run out places may reconsider.

    Lovely spot.

    I thought hotels could only serve residents, though?

    That looks like a fantastic spot to have a leisurely pint! Nice view also. I might have to wander over that direction to give it a trial run over the weekend.

    Walsh's and T & Hs looked busy when I passed about 4pm with all the seats outside taken.

    Geoff's closed but Heerys is open and Kazbar closed too.

    Good few people in town itself with most shops open.

    Town was quite packed yesterday when I was in there. Big lines outside the bookstation, JD Sports, inside the Book Centre, are people stocking up in anticipation of a lockdown?

    If they left a dirty ashtray there then they sure as hell didnt "clean" the area after the last customer!

    And I happened to be one of the heads sitting outside Walsh's, or @ least up the little lane @ the side of it sipping a lovely pint of Guinness reading the paper. Gotta find your bit on sanity & normality in this surreal reality! I had been out in Newtown Cove swimming beforehand so I really deserved those pints. Lovely sunny day out of the covid bubble!:cool:

    J&K Walshs put up a post on facebook saying watch this space ??

    Could it be for take away pints which can be consumed in places like red square etc

    Think they could be a bit messy esp with lack of toilets around the area if you're not allowed inside the pub
