We were staying at a B & B nearby, Blenheim House, and the lady of the house recommended this pub. However we found the pub was lacking in atmosphere although the staff were quite friendly. We sat in a covered area that had plastic awnings. This was not especially clean and the staff didn't seem to worry. My husband had... More

We went to Jack Mead's while on a tour of the British Isles. It was a fascinating old pub and the entertainer, Tom Comerford was a wonderful host/singer/tale teller. We did not eat at the pub, so I can't comment on the food, but we thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon there. I don't know whether this entertainment is a regular public... More

Recently called in for something to eat in Jack Meades.To say I was disappointed was an understatement.Had barbecue chicken and chips and it was horrible.Chicken was at least a day old and the chips had a taste of horrible stale oil from them.Will be back but will eat before I go. More

If your looking for a great steak while in Waterford, Jack Meade's is the place. We had an evening meal here recently. We both had the steak which was excellent, cooked to perfection, exactly what we asked for and it was complimented by lovely mushrooms, onions and chips. More

We had read several reviews suggesting this restaurant and we were very disappointed. The food was over priced and of poor quality. Our chips were bland, the steaks were poor quality, and the pepper sauce had little flavor. I wouldn't recommend anyone eat here. More
