Owner-operated in the real sense, with the person who set the standard behind the bar. The flat whites are what the neighbourhood keeps coming back for.

Ben cares about your flat white more than most Woodstock cafes do.

Cedar Coffee Roasters★★★ Purist

Winston is a South African Barista Champion and roasts every bean in the cup. Order a single-origin pour-over; it's what serious coffee travellers cite when asked for the best they've had.

Oscaffè★★ Specialty

A family roastery with Italian-Brazilian roots, built around a single-minded focus on Mogiana single-origin beans. Come for the espresso, leave with a bag that smells like it was roasted this week.
