I mean, there’s not much higher praise than that is there?

Fancy some of the best coffee in the world? Turns out, you don’t need to travel too far, just to Galway. Coffeewerk + Press made it onto ShopKeeper’s 2021 list of the Best Coffee Shops in the World. Yes, you read that right. The world.

To be fair, we can see why. Coffeewerk + Press is a stunning coffee shop that also acts as a small publishing house for art. They curate art from around the globe, and also sell postcards and prints in their shop. Coffeewerk + Press also sells monthly coffee subscriptions.

The coffee shop describes itself as:

a space created with mindful intent, to emphasise the meaningful, lived experience of quiet moments amidst the hectic cycle of daily life.”

Coffeewerk + Press also practices ethical trading when it comes to coffee. Their website states:

Our house roasters utilise direct trade, a practice by which they pay above and beyond market value to both individual and collective farmers throughout the world. This ensures fair compensation for growers who apply environmentally and socially conscious growing methods.”

Other coffee shops on Shopkeeper’s list include Monmouth Coffee Company, London, Homecoming, Brooklyn, The Greens, Berlin, and Nomad Coffee Lab, Barcelona. You can check out their full list of the best coffee shops in the world HERE – we’re just honoured to see Galway’s shoutout.
