A Wedding Venue Full of Character
If you’re searching for a wedding venue in Dublin that’s full of charm, Wrights Anglers Rest offers something a little different.
Our historic building has all the character you’d expect, while Phoenix Park and the banks of the River Liffey provide beautiful nearby locations for photographs. Inside, you’ll find elegant private spaces, fantastic food and an award-winning team that genuinely cares about getting every detail right.
It’s relaxed, welcoming and completely focused on giving you a brilliant day.
Corporate Events Without the Boardroom Feel
Not every business event needs to happen in a hotel meeting room!
Wrights Anglers Rest is a popular choice for business lunches, networking events, client dinners, product launches, awards nights and Christmas parties. It’s close enough to the city to be convenient, but also feels like you’ve escaped it completely.
Great food from our head chef Marcin, great service and a relaxed atmosphere make it easy to impress clients or reward your team.
A Favourite with Tour Groups
Visitors to Ireland are looking for more than somewhere to eat. They want an experience, with proper Irish hospitality, quality food and somewhere with a story to tell.
Our location close to Phoenix Park, combined with efficient service and flexible group dining options, makes Wrights Anglers Rest a favourite stop for coach tours and international visitors throughout the year.
Great Food Brings Everyone Together
Whatever the occasion, the food matters.
Our chefs focus on quality Irish ingredients, seasonal menus and generous portions. Whether it’s a formal meal, a family celebration or a relaxed group lunch, we’ll help create a menu that suits your event perfectly.
