The Wicklow Heather in Laragh

A very warm and friendly restaurant. The servers are welcoming and the food is delicious, featuring Irish specialties. I highly recommend this restaurant.

High recommended restaurant around Glendalough mountain and lake. Parking available. Excellent service. Nice food. I would comeback there.

Fantastic place !! Recommending !!

The service at this restaurant was truly excellent. We were greeted by a woman who seemed to be the manager, and she was very pleasant. The waitstaff were also friendly and attentive, which made the experience welcoming from the start. The restaurant itself has a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. I ordered the venison, which was the Sunday special. It was my first time trying venison, so I can’t judge the meat itself, but the dish as a whole was quite bland and came with very little sauce. My friend ordered the vegetarian option, which he found lacking in flavor and also quite small (just three small cheese balls with a side of salad). While the service and ambiance were great, the food did not live up to expectations.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere. Quaint pub vibes with excellent service. Our server Avinash was attentive, cheerful and polite. Would strongly recommend to anyone who is in the Glendalough area and gets their walk postponed by rain (as we did! :) )

Exceptionally good food with good service.

Our waiter Avinash was very friendly and attentive. Food was very tasty. A lovely lunch

Falafel salad set me up for the day - Avinash was incredibly friendly and recommended walks in the local area. Will definitely come back again

My husband and I were staying in the Airbnb next door for a week so it was an easy walk. I enjoyed having my breakfast of scone and coffee here almost every morning. The staff were always very accommodating! We brought our adult children, all vegetarian, for dinner and sat outside. Quite lovely.

We spent Fathers Day 2025 in Wicklow Heather. Brilliant restaurant for that homemade Irish feel, with fantastic atmosphere buzzing throughout the insides and outside areas. We ordered Fish & Chips, and a Turkey & Ham dinner. Food was fantastic! Finished off with a sneaky jelly & ice cream, and a mini brownie. Staff were extremely busy on the day and it showed. General attentiveness to tables was low, and we had to ask if our drinks would be arriving soon 3 times. Only after our main course arrived, did our drinks follow 2 minutes later. Glasses and cups started to pile in large quantities around the bar area, directly in front of where we were seated. I can understand the constraints in staffing considering the day that was in but something to be cautious of, per management feedback.
