The Wicklow Heather in Laragh

20/09/2025: We attended the Wicklow Heather last night and can't recommend it highly enough. It was Culture night and they had a wonderful event being run in the beautiful Writer's Room. An oasis for anyone passionate about literature, full of first editions from Ulysses to Dracula. The well established actor/writer Jack Walsh was performing. He provided a background of various Irish writers including Yeats, Wilde, O'Casey amongst others. He gave a wonderful synopsis of various plays and read some beautiful poetry from Potrait of an Artist, Dorian Gray to Plough and the Stars. He also gave us a fascinating background of their journey in life. There was a bit for everyone whether you are a novice or a literary fan. It was a set course meal with some bubbles to start with and ended with the Irish digestif, a delicious Irish coffee. The food was amazing, the food was cooked to perfection. David the manager and he's staff are super friendly, professional. The service was impeccable. A lovely way to spend an afternoon in the Writer's Room or as an alternative for a company team event etc. Thanks again, I will definitely be back soon. Great for couples, groups and the solo travellers 😍

18/09/2025: Turned up without a booking on a Tuesday evening. Couldn't sit in the very atmospheric dinning area so we're put in the additional seating area, thought it might not have any atmosphere but it soon filled up so did! Tasty food, well presented and lovely friendly waiting staff. Thanks
