Previous incarnations as a tailors, fish tank shop and brothel lends an oldie feel to Hennessey’s, an absolutely wonderful cafe. There is a slate floor with bare stone walls painted red and white; pieces of driftwood hang above the door; and old hessian coffee sacks are dotted around. Books sit on every available surface. The literary theme continues on the walls beside the sacks, where there are framed posters of Penguin Classics and classic French films.

It's been a long time since i've heard anyone rave about a good coffee shop ,so when a coffee snob friend of mine told me about a place called Hennesseys, I just had to check it out. The cappuccino I had was so uniquely different to the usual watery bitter milk drinks of others. The feel of this place is so different to others I have visited, not only could I have been in another country, but also another era. I love it, I want to move to Southville!
