A Galway cafe has ranked no. 39 in a roundup of the 100 top coffee shops in the world.
Coffeewerk + Press on Quay St in Galway City was the only coffee shop in Ireland to make the list.
The first ever World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops list was revealed on February 17 at Coffee Fest in Madrid, Spain.
The top 100 cafes were determined by a judging panel of coffee experts and industry experts, as well as a public vote worth 30 percent of the final score.
Rankings were based on barista expertise, customer service, ambience, innovation, consistency, sustainability practices, and the quality of pastries and coffee.
The winning cafes span across the globe, from Australia to Peru.
