Outdoor Seating in Dunmore East | The Spinnaker Bar Deck

The Spinnaker Bar's outdoor deck faces the harbour at Dunmore East — the finest outdoor pub seating on the Waterford coast. In summer, there's no better place to sit with a cold drink, fresh seafood and live music in the air.

The Spinnaker Deck

The outdoor deck at The Spinnaker Bar is one of the most sought-after seats in Co. Waterford on a warm summer day. Facing directly onto Dunmore East harbour, with the fishing fleet and the open Waterford coastline ahead of you, the deck provides an outdoor dining and drinking experience that is simply hard to match anywhere on the Irish coast.

In summer, the deck is in full operation — food and drink service available outside, live music floating out from the bar on music nights, and the natural theatre of the harbour providing constant interest. Families, couples, groups of friends — the deck accommodates all of them and creates the kind of atmosphere that makes summer in Dunmore East so special.

Best Time for the Deck

The deck is at its best on warm summer evenings when live music is on. The combination of good weather, harbour views, a cold drink, quality food and acoustic music drifting through the air is genuinely one of the finest pub experiences in Ireland. Summer weekends are busiest — book ahead by ringing (051) 383 133 to secure your outdoor table.

Year-Round Outdoor Area

While the deck is primarily a summer facility, the outdoor area can be used at other times of year in suitable weather. Dunmore East has a relatively mild coastal climate and outdoor dining extends beyond the peak summer months for those who don't mind a bit of fresh sea air.
