The Jonathan Swift Room

The Ivy Dawson Street houses a private dining venue with a difference. Hidden away, The Jonathan Swift Room, named after the Dublin-born author, is still very much rooted in the local landscape, featuring a stunning image of Dublin’s horizon c1800. Meanwhile, the ceiling celebrates another of the city’s famous writers, James Joyce. His famous fictional hero, Leopold Bloom, is pictured alongside a host of multicoloured, exotic flying birds, pairing perfectly with the room’s colourful collection of art. This sense of artful, careful curation extends to the menus – all exclusively crafted by our Executive Chef and like the room itself, designed with a sophisticated versatility that can welcome private events, wedding parties and corporate receptions, morning noon and night. Available to book for breakfast, lunch and dinner reservations it offers the perfect setting for group bookings whatever the occasion, whether you are looking to book for a private event, family celebration, business meeting and Christmas party.
