Best Independent Newsagency: Newscaf

As the name suggests, this is a great place to drink coffee while reading the news. If the morning paper is too dry for your tastes, a deluxe newsagent exists on the premises. If it wasn’t enough to be able to enjoy shaded outdoor seating on King Street, the edible portions will knock your head off. Large coffee is undeniably large. The friendly staff will quickly whip up a tasty meal too – try the haloumi cheese grill for an afternoon delight. Like most cafes, sweet treats are on display, but Newscaf sets itself apart with its wide selection of friands. (James Gilronan)
