The Coach House in Roundwood

At lunch outside. Very decent spot. The menu does feel like they added a load of French words just to justify the very high prices. The cheeseburger was ok. Its "fancy word" was Wagu but it wasn't far off any other mid quality burger for me. The chips were perfect. Great Guinness. The outdoor area was very noisy with the extractor fan on since they were BBQing things that day. Ruined the outdoor chill vibe a touch. The service was top notch, they add a 12.5% service charge so we didn't have to tip but worth noting they add it to the bill.

We came to eat dinner/lunch. The menu was very confusing, meals were fine but not very big and for its price its expensive including the 12.5% service charge. Overall good quality food but for its price and size I had better.

Nice cosy pub, but €6.95 for a pint of Guinness in rural Co. Wicklow is fairly extortionate even at today's prices.

Great staff, great food, great setting, loved it!

My husband and I had lunch in The Coach House today Saturday the 15th March 2025. We were absolutely delighted with the service, food and ambience. The staff were knowledgeable, attentive without being intrusive and eager to assist with the menu. The food was fresh, really flavoursome and generous helpings. We will be back and look forward to it. Mim and Bob

Firstly, this is a review on the pub only. I recommend the owner split the accommodation and restaurant for accurate reviews. Food was really good. I thought my schnitzel was really flavourful and well presented. My wife enjoyed her cod. I will say, it's a tad expensive for what you get, and portion sizes might be slightly under what you get in other pubs. I've seen many reviews comment on good service, but I'd describe mine as adequate (i found myself having to flag staff down for everthing). Also need to mention that this establishment has a discretionary 12.5% added to all bills regardless of party size, since that's also fairly uncommon in Ireland. And another thing with soft drinks, i got a coke zero and it was 200ml (i feel like that's info you might need since prices don't vary much in restaurants but you might get any size drink

Super nice restaurant, worth a stop if you are in the area. The space looks like it’s been recently renovated and has a charming barn/ country home feel. The food was delicious and the menu very interesting and varied.

I made a visit to The Coach House today with some friends after a hike. I am not local to the area, but this was my second visit & on both occasions not only was I impressed with the good food but also the excellent. service. As we each tottered up to the bar individually to place our orders, we were told to just make ourselves comfortable at a table & someone would come down & take our orders. Glasses & a couple of large bottles of water were placed on the table while we waited for our food to arrive. Thirsty after a day on the hills these were replenished as soon as they were empty. Our orders arrived - mine a delicious fruit crumble served in a warm bowl with the cream in a separate side dish. Some in the group had ordered crisps - their preferred flavour was not available so to compensate they were given a few extra packets free gratis. When it came to payment - doing so separately was easily accommodated by the staff. My previous visit last year was also as part of a larger group. Again the food & service was exemplary . Moreover the staff were accommodating in every way for the large group, which can be hard at the best of times & even more so during what was the busy Christmas period . My experience on both occasions was of good food, good service & all delivered by delightful staff, so a big thank you to them for this. However in my experience good service does not 'just happen' but is driven by a management who has an ethos to deliver the best and then the skillset to build & train a team around them who share that goal. Congrats & thanks to all the team @ The Coach House.

Food and service were up to the usual high standard. Our only gripe was that dogs are allowed into the restaurant, when there is ample heated outdoor space to cater for dogs. We love dogs but not in a restaurant being fed from the owners table. The menu is very varied and tasty to boot.

We were in Ireland visiting friends for a couple of days and this pub was recommended as a good place to stay, I’d have to disagree! It was a fantastic place to stay. From the outside it looks like any small town pub, white walls and slate roof. The moment you enter though you’re treated to a beautiful eclectic space with art in the walls and a mixture of chairs and sofas. We had a small lunch with our friends which was delicious, I wasn’t too hungry so just had their Donegal salt and pepper squid with lemon aioli which was delicious and shared some sourdough and parsnip& feta dip/paté After that we went to the bar and had a Guinness or two before being shown to our room. The pub has six rooms I believe and we had number 6. The room was a surprise, it was beautiful decorated and the bed was covered in a beautiful heavy throw. I’m not sure what I expected but this room was above standard. The bathroom was also lovely, we later found the shower was one of the best we’d experienced whilst travelling. Our evening meal and breakfast was amazing in the adjacent cafe that’s part of the pub.
