This is a small little cafe on Mc Curtain St in Fermoy Co Cork it is run by a lovely and friendly Thai Family who are very attentive and interact with their customers. All baking ie scones, cakes etc is done in house by the resident cook. Spottless in everyway including the toilets. Food is directed to suit an Irish Audience so you can get most dishes that you would find in any Irish cafe. It is small I think I counted 14 seats in total here, the food is lovely well prepared and served by a lovely Thai lady give her time when ordering her English is good but we appear to talk very fast. We enjoyed our visit to Jeni's Cafe we had breakfast when we visited which was lovely, the only thing I would say is that they serve streaky bacon with the breakfast which is very fatty as streaky bacon usually is, we would have preferred to have back bacon as we are used to in Ireland and England we noticed other customers leaving the bacon off the breakfast and other dishes. We would definitely go back there again everything about it is prefect apart from the bacon served.

If there’s one cafe I’d visit again in Ireland, it would be Jeni’s Cafe Deli Bakery. I’ve ordered food and desserts here and the taste were perfect, bite after bite. Also, cleanliness is one thing they keep up, the place is properly maintained, sanitation 10/10. The food preparation is fast too and the staff are super friendly and nice. I would recommend this Cafe in Fermoy.
