The Coach House in Roundwood

Great place, you can see that the staff loves what they do 😃.

Didn't stay there but had a wonderful lunch. Their food is excellent but a very popular restaurant - so booking very much advised. Great separate coffee bar as well.

We were very satisfied. The food, room, and staff were all excellent. Breakfast was excellent.

We eat at the coach house restaurant on regular basis, as we stop here after we do a hike in Glendelough. The service is great and their food is even better. They really know how to make a good cod! The kids options are great and very fresh with addition of fresh juice. It's nice to see a restaurant making the effort for the kids as well as adults. We had a dessert today as well, which was amazing. Thank you very much for always looking after us so well!

Great place to visit would recommend 👌 excellent experience

We ended up booking The Coach House spontaneously after a bit of a mishap caused us to miss our original flight for a post-wedding trip to our family in Canada. We wanted to ease that blow with a nice little getaway, and we definitely made the right choice. The cozy rooms are beautifully decorated, along with the rest of the building. Every staff member we encountered was lovely and welcoming. But the food really blew us away. The dinner we had in the pub was absolutely delicious. A meal here alone would be worth travelling out for from Dublin. We won’t soon forget those flavours! The breakfast at the bakery next door was also amazing, though beware, the portions might make it difficult to get out of your chair afterward. They don’t leave anyone going hungry, that’s for sure! We highly recommend the Coach House. You’ll love the incredible food and Irish hygge aesthetic design, all while surrounded by some of the most beautiful landscape in Ireland.

Delightful inn in historic building, 6 rooms upstairs with highly recommended restaurant on ground floor. Restaurant kitchen is closed on Wednesdays, but associated Roundwood Stores cafe is open all day, with a pizza night on Wed which was fantastic! Staff at stores and inn are very welcoming and friendly, even when busy and managing both a cafe counter and check in. We stayed on a particularly warm night, upstairs was cooled with windows open and emergency exit door down the hall open. Some have complained about the construction noise- we were not bothered, it was done by 5pm, though starts early along with trash truck at 7am. Most of Roundwood seems to be under construction at the moment. Update- after our lovely night, with another day of planned hiking, my husband was too sick to hike the next morning and they allowed us to stay until noon and helped us figure out transfer to the next town. Overall a lovely stay!

It was a planned dinner, we were just passing Round wood after a long mountain walk, and decided to stop for an early dinner. Having already been to the Round wood store we had said we owe to try the Coach House restaurant. Well we haven't been disappointed at all. We had a great time, some amazing food and we were served with many smiles. It is not exactly cheap but it is well worth it. Great quality of Irish products are served here, and amazingly prepared and presented in the plates. I highly recommend the fish options. I went for the monkfish which was delicious. I highly recommend.

Visited for Sunday lunch yesterday and loved it. The Donegal Squid and Pork Belly salad were excellent starters, whilst the lamb shoulder was as good as I've ever had in Ireland, beautifully tender. And the tiramisu topped off a really enjoyable Sunday lunch. My Mam is coeliac and the staff were very helpful and the kitchen flexible in maximising the range of options from the menu which could be prepared gluten-free. The restaurant has a wonderful ambience, classically elegant but not at all stuffy. Staff were friendly and attentive. Some may consider it a little pricey but I've eaten in plenty of other places post-Covid at the same price point where the fare was average and/or service was poor, so for genuinely good food and service in the Ireland of 2025 I think people need to be expecting to pay around these prices. I live about an hour's drive away but hope to be back soon!

Myself and my husband along with our little dog stayed here for two nights over the bank holiday weekend ….. we were made extremely welcome on arrival and showed to our room by a very friendly guy who’s name I can’t remember but he was from spain , our room was very warm and cosy and had everything we needed , very comfortable bed .we had cocktails in the bar that evening which were delicious and the lady with the blonde hair made us and our little dog so welcome she even brought him little doggie treats! We had breakfast both mornings in their onsite bakery/restaurant which was lovely ….great choice of coffee and the quality of the food was second to none , we loved our stay and we will definitely be back , thanks a million for a lovely stay
