Price Range €10–20

Alla Patisserie in The Square, Fethard, offers a quietly refined spot for anyone who appreciates top-tier coffee and carefully crafted pastries. This cafe is less about a bustling brunch or lunch scene and more about slowing down with a well-made cappuccino or mocha alongside a rich cinnamon roll or a slice of chocolate fudge cake. Locals and visitors alike seem to favor it as a relaxed stop for afternoon coffee, where quality consistently takes center stage.

The atmosphere is intimate and calm, noticeably less noisy than some other nearby cafes, which makes it a good choice for a catch-up with friends or a moment of quiet reflection away from the town’s busier spots. Seating is cozy yet roomy enough that even when it's busy, staff respond by bringing out extra tables to accommodate visitors comfortably.

What stands out here is the connection to craftsmanship—this is a place where the bakery display feels like a window into serious baking skill. The patisserie-owner’s background shines through, bringing a distinct touch to the cakes and pastries on offer, including specialties like pecan maple danish and lemon meringue. These treats, combined with rich coffee options like iced mocha and mocha coffee, highlight the place as a coffee-and-pastry destination rather than a lunch venue.

Visitors driving through Fethard will find the location convenient, with the added bonus of free parking nearby. The pace here invites you to come for a quality coffee break, perhaps in the later morning or afternoon when it’s perfect for a casual stop during a day of exploring or errands. The steady quality over the years suggests a dependable place for those who prioritize what’s in the cup and on the plate over trendy buzz.

Lovely bakery with top class baking on display. It's fairly expensive but you get what you pay for here.This lady is from the Ukraine and what an addition to fethard she is.A few years ago, before she set up her shop she made our wedding cake and all the guests were raving about it.Highly recommended

Finally arrive in Fethard coffee restaurant with great cakes and pastries. One of my favourite coffee, absolutely top quality. I think there is great opportunity for icecream in summer time. Great location with free car parking. It's not for lunch, which is ok for me, just enjoy amazing coffee and cake. Edit: Even after months and years in business, Alla didn't change quality, still NICE

My friend and I stopped in to this delightful place to grab a coffee when we were on a trip around Ireland and we both agreed it was the best spot we were in and we were in quite a few on our travels. The coffee was of excellent quality and the scones and apple tart (freshly baked i must add) that my friend and I had were out of this world i spoke with the cook and owner Alla and discovered why everything was so good in there, as you can tell very quickly after speaking with her for a minute or two that she is the real deal and is a kind and respectful person and it shows in the way She takes care of her patrons great luck to you Alla and we I look forward to going in to your shop and enjoying your great cuisine next Spring when we are home from Boston

Visited Alla in Clonmel today, one of the best coffees we have had in a long time and the mango and passionfruit cake we had was amazing, lovely cute venue, nice and calm compared to some of the really noisy cafes in Clonmel, we will be back.
