Celebrate this year's Six Nations at The Ball Alley in Kildare

The Ball Alley in Kildare Town has quickly established itself as one of the area’s most exciting destinations for food, coffee, social occasions and live sporting moments.

Officially reopening on September 3 last year following a complete and thoughtful revamp, the venue now seamlessly blends café culture, restaurant dining and an inviting private events space upstairs — creating a destination where there is always an atmosphere, no matter the day of the week.

Located on Station Road in the heart of Kildare Town, The Ball Alley offers a welcoming space built around quality, comfort and genuine Irish hospitality. Visitors regularly highlight the friendly, attentive team and the sense that staff go above and beyond to make every guest feel at home.

The service ethos is clear — great food, excellent coffee and warm, personal interaction sit at the centre of the experience.

The interior design reflects both modern style and respect for the building’s heritage, resulting in a space that feels stylish yet relaxed.

Guests can enjoy beautifully prepared food, artisan coffee and homemade treats in surroundings that are both contemporary and cosy — perfect for long catch-ups, casual lunches or special celebrations.

During the Six Nations, The Ball Alley truly comes into its own. The team have created a vibrant but comfortable viewing atmosphere, where sport lovers can soak up every moment of the tournament in style.

Whether gathering with friends, family or colleagues, the venue strikes the perfect balance between lively match-day energy and a snug, welcoming environment where you can settle in for the full game.

With its combination of café, restaurant, retail and event space, The Ball Alley is more than just somewhere to eat or grab a coffee — it’s a social hub for the community.

Pop down to The Ball Alley to soak up the celebrations of The Six Nations.
