Galway city coffee shop 'incredibly proud' as staff member named best barista in Ireland
The Best Coffee Shops Ireland Gala took place in Dublin, bringing together leading figures from the Irish café industry. Galway’s Coffeewerk + Press received one of the event’s biggest honours. Head barista Daria was crowned Best Barista in Ireland, marking a first for the café. The café is a well-known city-centre staple and is regularly praised as one of the country’s top caffeine stops. Coffeewerk + Press also received recognition as one of the Top 10 Coffee Shops in Ireland. The team expressed pride in Daria’s growth and credited her success to talent, dedication, passion, and care. The event included a panel discussion with industry friends and emphasized coffee’s ability to bring people together.
"Yesterday, we had the honour of attending the Best Coffee Shops Ireland Gala. A huge thank you to Geison and everyone involved in creating such a memorable and special event. We're incredibly proud to share that our Head Barista, Daria, was named Best Barista in Ireland. An achievement built on talent, dedication, passion, and care. We couldn't be happier to see her recognised on a national stage. Watching her grow - not only as a barista, but as the person she is today - has been a privilege."
"We are also beyond grateful to have been named among the Top 10 Coffee Shops in Ireland. To be recognised alongside so many incredible cafes and people we know and admire, both from the west and across the country, truly means the world to us."
"The evening became even more special as we had the opportunity to take part in a panel discussion with friends from the industry - sharing ideas, stories, and conversations about coffee and the community that surrounds it. Moments like this remind us that coffee has a special way of bringing people together. Thank you to everyone who supports us, visits us, and helps make what we do possible - and none of this would ever be possible without our incredible team - past and present. Thank you!"
