The sweetest place in Athlone. Exceptional coffee, great food, greater treats, and the greatest hosts.

I’m heartbroken to be saying goodbye to Fine. For more than 5 years, I've worked just a few steps from this place and throughout the years it has felt like more than just a coffee shop to me.
The coffee? The best in town as said by many. The food? Delicious and comforting. The vibes? exquisite and cosy. But what truly made Fine special was the people. Ciaran,Laura, Axel, Laoise, Gary, Claire, Sinead, Emily, Shane and many other lovely staff members not only kept me well-fed but also have provided a warm, welcoming space where I’ve started my mornings, taken many many breaks, vented, laughed, ended my day, the team who knew to be reaching for the teabags and oat milk before I was in the door and who always greeted me and said goodbye with a smile, and made every visit feel like home.
It’s hard to imagine my routine without this place, and I know I’m not alone in saying that Fine will be deeply missed. Thank you for everything—you’ve created something truly special, and I wish you all the best in your next chapter. ❤️

FINE is an absolutely exceptional spot in Athlone that impresses on every level – from the quality of the coffee to the food and the overall atmosphere. If you're looking for a café where every detail matters, this is the place for you!
First and foremost, the coffee – the selection is impressive, and every cup tastes like a small masterpiece. They serve beans from top European roasters, so you can try something truly special. On top of that, their homemade pastries and delicious breakfasts are light, fresh, and perfectly balanced.
The staff? Absolutely wonderful! You can tell they love what they do and are always happy to help with recommendations. The atmosphere is cozy, and the interior is stylish but not overly fancy – the perfect place to unwind.
Another big plus is the variety of options for vegans and those avoiding gluten – everyone can find something delicious here. And let’s not forget – it’s pet-friendly, so you can enjoy your coffee with your furry friend by your side.
I highly recommend this place – it's a café you'll want to keep coming back to!

Had a wonderful lunch here with a family member today. Staff greeted us with a warm smile and the service was excellent. We both ordered sandwiches, which were absolutely delicious. Their coffee is up there with one of the best. The cafe has a lovely charm and cosy vibes, definitely one of my favourite places to visit when in Athlone.
