Melbourne's Best Coffee

admin

hey Pat - would love to but doesn't sound like anyone's going to get within a few hundred miles of the place because of the weather - is it still raining?

askthecoffeeguy

Not sure I'm still on the nsw south coast relatively isolated in a bush setting across from the beach so I'm not too sure what's happening in the rest of the world - besides it's prob going to be another week before we're in Byron proper...

Just booked my flights to Melbourne for the 5th and 6th of March for a wedding and it is with great glee that I see that foxy brown is only just down the road from the ceremony, probably have to drop in before and after. Hope you will be there on Sat arvo Pat. Cheers Brett

Hi Brett ironically I've got a bucks do that afternoon and a wedding to go to the following weekend - I will be at work on the sat you're here - though I prob have to leave at 2pm latest Be great to see you though !

Might struggle for 2pm do you work sun?

askthecoffeeguy

it's getting to be the time where we start looking at great cafes for Melbourne, so let me know any recommendations and recent new openings... tx A

askthecoffeeguy

there's been a few great places pop up in melbourne in the last 12 months or so such as monk bodi dharma - who are consistently producing great coffee, and others that I havent had a chance to get to - but it will be interesting to see if the standards have been raised recently, or if we have levelled out a bit!

Melbourne's specialty coffee scene just keeps growing, there's probably close to a dozen new cafes that could make the top 5.

Spending 2 or 3 days doing advanced research on this subject in a couple of weeks ;D The list is long but someones got to do it. Reports to follow.

Hi All First Post. Went to the new Padre cafe (League of Honest Coffee). Had a great espresso SO (PNG Sigiri) and love the decor. The painted slayers and roburs are worth a look. BF - Put it on your list, and would be good to catch up in person!. Ben

I am a poor boy from the country someone sold me really expensive perforated metal things a while back so I am broke 😉 I think I might buy a gps with route planner for the pushbike before I come up, so many new coffee places including a long put off trip to Pat's place.

@ admin shame you couldn't make it to my joint today we did 200 covers for lunch!

Sounds like Axil Coffee will be up and going as a cafe later this week. Might need to add another day to the coffee crawl/cycle through the burbs. 200 covers for any service is good going too 🙂

... well guys, just got back after a mini-cafe crawl this afternoon, and have to say things are really 'hopping' in Melb; just some great cafes [& more importantly] fantastic coffee... some would say Seattle is the coffee capital of the world at the moment, but having just got back from there, I have to say it's Melbourne [& I don't say that lightly].
