I never rate stores but I felt others should be warned of the "service" in this particular store. A bookstore assistant thought it was appropriate to say to me in front of my children, "maybe you should question your parenting skiils" after mentioning I had my children at the Wicklow market yesterday. My children were nothing but polite in that store, as was I. Maybe she should look at herself before she starts judging other people for having a fun day out. My family, I or my friend who accompanied me will certainly not be back to this store after such horrid service and rotten comments. Luckily a nice coffee shop owner seen how upset I was and took me in for a coffee,. Thank you to Peggy's. I wish I had asked for my money back there and then but low and behold, I am a good parent who was not going to upset my eager book readers. read more

This is my favourite bookshop in Ireland. I lived in Wicklow Town for a year and I spent a good amount of time visiting here. The range of books available is very impressive, especially when compared to bookshops in other smaller towns in Ireland. Ditto the readings and other events. The staff couldn't be more helpful. read more
