Wexford Town, nestled along Ireland’s southeastern coast, offers visitors a brilliant blend of history and culinary delights. The medieval streets and narrow lanes hide lots of unique dining spots waiting to be discovered.
Ranging from cozy traditional pubs to modern restaurants, with many serving fresh seafood caught daily from the nearby harbor, there are plenty of choices. The local food scene draws inspiration from both Irish heritage and international influences, creating a diverse dining experience for food lovers.
Here are my personal favourite places to eat in Wexford Town when I’m in the area.
I found this Asian fusion restaurant on Wexford’s waterfront to be a great spot for street food flavors. The menu features a mix of dishes made with quality ingredients that bring authentic Asian tastes to Ireland. I personally like the Pho Bo, closely followed by the Duck Curry.
The restaurant offers a relaxed dining atmosphere where you can enjoy your meal with cocktails, beer, or wine. Their drinks menu has plenty of options to complement the food. If you prefer eating at home, you can order takeaway or delivery through their mobile app. The service is quick and convenient, making it easy to get their food wherever you are.
The setting along Crescent Quay provides nice views while you dine. Their focus on street food favorites sets them apart from other Asian restaurants in the area.

Jasper’s is a pretty stylish restaurant in the heart of Wexford town. The vibrant 75-cap space features modern decor, colorful designs, and a striking mural depicting the three sister goddesses of Ireland.
The menu focuses on local Wexford ingredients prepared by Executive Head Chef Tony Carty. Diners can choose from sharing starters, Irish fillet steaks, fresh fish, and vegan dishes. The restaurant serves brunch, lunch, and dinner with a special “Taste of Jasper’s” menu available on Fridays and Sundays.

La Côte sits along Custom Quay with views of the Irish Sea and Wexford’s mussel trawlers. I found the mix of Irish seafood and modern European cooking styles creates a unique dining experience.
Michelin-trained chef Paul Hynes runs the kitchen while his wife Edwina manages the front of house. Their dedication shows in the restaurant’s numerous awards, including Seafood Restaurant of the Year 2016 and Best Restaurant in Wexford 2018.
The menu changes based on fresh local seafood and produce from trusted farmers and suppliers. The restaurant holds a Michelin Plate award, which marks it as a place for quality food. I normally order Scallops for starter and Lemon Sole for my main, but sometimes I like to mix it up with some pork belly.

Vine Restaurant is a really impressive Thai restaurant right in the heart of town. It has been serving authentic Thai cuisine since 2001, led by Executive Chef Raywat Wongprachan from Udan Thanai, Thailand.
The restaurant’s setting in a high-ceilinged neo-classical room creates a striking backdrop for dining. The open kitchen makes it a great place to bring kids or to go on a date so that you can watch the Thai chefs work their magic and smell your dish from across the room.
Some standout dishes include the Duck & Prawn Combo and Spicy Seabass. The menu uses local ingredients combined with traditional Thai elements, and the chefs can adjust dishes for different dietary needs, whether you’re vegan, gluten intolerant, or allergic to nuts.
The restaurant works well for both intimate dates and larger group gatherings. I found the downstairs seating area more comfortable, as the upstairs section can get quite warm during busy times.

I love the modern take on Asian fusion cuisine at Mi Street Food. The restaurant brings together influences from across Asia to create exciting flavor combinations that work perfectly together.
The menu features a mix of noodle dishes, rice bowls, and street food favorites. Each dish is made fresh to order with high-quality ingredients and authentic Asian spices and sauces. I was especially impressed by the generous portions and reasonable prices when I visited. The relaxed, casual atmosphere makes it a great spot for both quick lunches and leisurely dinners with friends.
The friendly staff are always happy to explain menu items and make recommendations based on your preferences.

If you’re looking for a great place to eat in Wexford then this pizza spot right won’t dissapoint. The cozy restaurant brings a taste of authentic Italian pizza to the local dining scene.
The pizzas come out of their wood-fired oven with perfectly crispy crusts and generous toppings. Each pizza is made fresh to order using quality ingredients that really shine through in the final product. I love the Nduja Pizza but I’m also partial to an Irish 4 Cheese every now and then.
The dining room fills up quickly during peak hours, so I suggest booking ahead. The staff provides quick and friendly service, making it a pleasant spot for both lunch and dinner.

I love visiting Rob’s Ranch House for their authentic American-style grill dishes. The menu features classic steaks, burgers, and ribs cooked to perfection over an open flame. The rustic ranch-themed decor creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The wooden beams and western artwork transport me to a Texas steakhouse every time I visit.
The portions are generous and the meat is always tender and flavorful. I wish I knew how to make their signature BBQ sauce that adds just the right amount of smokiness to every dish!
I would highly recommend Rob’s Ranch for families and groups of friends as it’s a more relaxed environment, making food sharing easy (not that you’ll want to)! I felt that the prices are quite reasonable for the quality and quantity of food they serve.

Green Acres is a unique spot in Wexford Town that combines fine dining with wine retail, art, and specialty foods. The O’Connor family has run this business for seven generations, building a strong reputation for wine expertise.
The restaurant serves modern Irish cuisine in an elegant setting. I love the stylish bistro’s distinctive atmosphere, with its floor-to-ceiling wine racks creating a sophisticated backdrop for dining. Speaking of wine, they have a really impressive and extensive wine list which makes this a personal favourite for date night.
Beyond the restaurant, Green Acres houses an art gallery and a deli filled with organic and specialty foods. The wine store offers an extensive selection, making it a go-to destination for wine enthusiasts. This multi-purpose venue also hosts events, bringing together food, wine, and art under one roof. The combination of dining and retail makes it perfect for both a meal out and shopping for specialty items.

Sometimes you just fancy a burger and haloumi fries, and when I’m in that sort of mood, I can’t think of anywhere other than Charred! This fast food spot on Selskar Street feels rustic and adds a lot of charm to the local food scene.
The menu features juicy burgers made with locally sourced beef, grilled to perfection. Their signature char-grilled flavor sets them apart from other burger places in town adn I personally get the Iberian Burger and Haloumi Fries. Sometimes I’ll get some Spring Rolls to start with (the diet starts Monday).
The restaurant has a modern, casual atmosphere that makes it perfect for both quick lunches and relaxed dinners. I find the service quick and friendly, making it a really reliable choice when I’m hungry in town.

I found this gem of a restaurant tucked away near the Wexford quayside. Copper Chimney brings both Indian and Thai cuisine together under one roof, making it a really unique dining spot in Wexford town, offering a flavour profile I hadn’t experienced before.
The menu spans traditional favorites from both South and North Indian cooking. They also serve authentic Thai street food dishes, giving you plenty of exciting options to choose from. Persoanlly, I tend to opt for the Thai Green Curry unless I go for a classic Butter Chicken Masala.
The restaurant creates a cozy atmosphere that works well for both casual meals and special occasions. They keep things interesting with daily specials that feature seasonal ingredients and unique flavor combinations.

Unfortunately, I recently discovered that 10 West Bistro & Cocktail Lounge has decided to close its doors. This well-loved establishment in Wexford Town had become a local favorite for fine dining and cocktails. During its time, I found that 10 West excelled at combining the best of Irish and European cuisine. The restaurant earned a strong reputation for its elegant atmosphere and exceptional service.
The venue stood out for its dual identity as both a sophisticated bistro and a stylish cocktail lounge. Its location in the heart of Wexford Town made it a popular spot for both special occasions and casual evening drinks. If it ever opens again, I highly recommend giving it a try.
