What is it?

A restaurant with a pub in Laragh, the village at the entrance to the valley, about two kilometres from the monastic city. It is open every day from breakfast to dinner, so it works just as well for a coffee before your walk as for dinner if you are sleeping in the valley.

What is there to eat?

Irish cooking with a touch of the Continental. The most popular dish is the Wicklow lamb, the slow-roasted leg or the rump; there is also steamed cod, chicken and homemade desserts such as the warm brownie.

How to get there

It is at the village crossroads. The St Kevin's bus stops in Laragh, opposite Lynham's Hotel, on the way out and the way back, and the free council car park, beside the weavers' mills, is next door: from there a 3 km path leads through the forest to the Upper Lake.

What to order: the slow-roasted Wicklow lamb.
