What we love

  • Roasts its own coffee on a 6kg Giesen, with every batch cupped for quality control.
  • Green coffee selected through structured in-house tasting sessions, not bought on reputation alone.
  • Named single-origin lots on rotation, plus retail beans to take home.
  • Flat whites specifically called out by reviewers, who describe the coffee as cared for 'from the beans to the presentation.'

ARTISTA PERFETTO★★ Specialty

The menu runs from pour-overs to the Magic, Melbourne's ristretto format done properly, and the staff will walk you through the difference before you order. The espresso stands up on its own.

Just Between Friends★★ Specialty

Assembly Coffee from London, pulled with the precision the sourcing decision deserves. Beehive Mill is an unhurried room; worth the walk into Ancoats.
