The Wilds at The Beehive

 Located a stone’s throw from the motorway at Junction 18 on the M11, and close to Wicklow town, The Beehive was a legendary establishment in Co. Wicklow for many years. We are thrilled to have purchased and brought the derelict building back to life with our Furniture and Lifestyle store, Artisan Cafe and Garden Centre. Not forgetting our busy Drive Thru for takeaway coffees and tasty treats on the go, throughout the week.

Our Ethos

Our cafe is open daily from 9.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday and 9.30am to 5pm Saturday and Sunday. We serve breakfast, brunch and lunch along with artisan coffee and homebaked cakes. We use seasonal, local, organic ingredients and adopt a farm to fork approach where we support small scale, local, hard-working producers while also producing high quality, flavoursome food, that is nutrient dense and better for our health. 

For example, our 100% Wicklow beef burger is completely additive free and certified organic from Keadeen Mountain Farms, our lettuce leaves are certified organic and grown down the road from us at Garden County Organics.

We choose organic ingredients because they are proven to be better for our health. The farmer has to adhere to very strict standards and cannot use pesticides, herbicides, antibiotics etc. all of which are extremely harmful to our gut microbiome. Alongside the health benefits, organic farmers also farm on a smaller scale, which is the way that farming used to be and this has shown to be better for the animals, the land, our eco system and the environment.
