The pristine, white shop front (simply titled “Coffee”) on Manor St is home to Love Supreme, undoubtedly a cafe for coffee lovers with its cool and contemporary interior and display of home brewing equipment. Currently sourcing its coffee beans from the Cafe Sur cooperative in Tolima, Colombia, its espresso promises a rich blend of fig, blackberry and treacle notes. I order my cappuccino (€2.90) and am duly impressed by the careful weighing of the freshly ground coffee using exact measuring scales, delicately creating a finished article which is quite perfect, with its aesthetically pleasing latte art. The cappuccino itself is smooth and mild, with a subtle hint of white chocolate and soft marshmallow; to complement this I opt for the Wildflour Bakery’s white chocolate cake with toasted nuts (€3.50) a light, sweet sponge with a mixture of almonds and hazelnuts throughout. A delightful spot to escape the bustle of the city centre, Love Supreme is certainly worth a visit.
