    As of today, a quality of roast coffee beans from the Industry Beans is one of the best in Australia. Swing by this city store located in Lt. Collins street every morning is a joy of opening the new day in Melbourne CBD. Staffs are very professional, welcoming and friendly. Nothing to add for roasted coffees in this store as I believe this is the top quality. The taste is full of aromatic, smooth, and tempting flavor. Recommended!

    The customer service was friendly and no complaints there. The quality of the soy flat white I ordered wasn't the best unfortunately. The take away cup was almost too hot to hold, the coffee was too hot to drink, the coffee was a bit too bitter for my taste and the soy milk had "curdled". Judging by the other reviews it looks like it's a hit more than it is a miss - so your experience may differ!

    Just paid $6 for a latte and it tastes like poison. Literally tastes like someone has dumped a bottle of nail polish remover into my coffee. Couldn’t even drink it which is something that has never happened in my entire existence. Absolutely foul. If you like the taste of acetone, this is the place for you.

    A busy coffee spot in central Melbourne. Not many seats are available and it's not a pleasant location to sit down, especially during peak hours. The cafe offers quick quality coffee and a good bite. Highly recommend the bacon and tomatoes sandwich. The mustard flavour is too salty for me. I ordered a soy latte which is made at the right temperature with perfect milk frothing.

    This is the type of place you go to because you want to order single origin beana by aroma profile, but also want to pretend you're not a hipster. Or if you want that perfect crema, but you have a job. In other words a great balance.

    Not too bad for ice coffee but not sure if it’s just me but coffee bean didn’t felt the best. It was good to try but not maybe once in a while thing. The cafe set up is quite simpler and nice. Service was okish not very friendly. Good for one time try.

    Just walking past, saw this cool clean looking cafe and grabbed a rather delicious deep flavoured coffee. Friendly staff, open on Sunday, on the way to the hotel... perfect. I'll be going back again

    Large flat white + Almond milk == $6.40 (Sunday rates). Fast service, polite staff, and a long counter with bar stools to sit and meditate at.

    Two male staff are both extremely rude and short. I don’t think we own you money insead we are here as customers. We say Please and Thank you don’t even get a reply. Average coffee, poor service and dirty table.

    Is it because I ordered takeaway coffee? My friend recommended it to me, and I was very disappointed. The temperature of the milk was good, but the coffee taste was weak, and the flavors of the milk and coffee didn't complement each other well. I didn't understand why this place was considered special.

  • 2/5 Elly Y. 6 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    Visited Tue during peak hours, nothing to complain about the service and price. Both the long black and flat white tasted ‘flat’ with some almost unnoticeable acidic flavour, overall a bit like water. Probably will not return, there are other choices that suit my preference better

    Based on coffee alone, I'd give 3.5. However, the vibe was nice, I liked the fact that the seats face the wall, perfect book reading time. The barista was very friendly and the place was well located.

    Gave them 5 stars last time I was here & I wasn’t disappointed once again. Simply for been open after 5pm they deserve 5stars, thanks guys! With so many good coffee shops in Melbourne, best coffee in town comes down to taste but this would sit amongst the best. This place can get busy & it’s understandable why. Deep roasted coffee so it speaks to the stronger palate, I enjoyed a tall macchiato & the Mrs. had a flat white. Great pastries but I would recommend the ham & cheese croissant. Will definitely be back.

    My absolute favourite place to buy coffee beans from. Not only is shipping always so quick, they’re coffee is of the highest quality. I recently ordered their new Fitzroy Iced Coffee to try it and it tastes wonderful!! Will definitely be restocking when I run out. Will continue to purchase from Industry Beans for years to come. They’re the absolute best.

    This is the brand you heard of all the time. That’s why I stopped and tried flat white. Might not come back for it. Due to my experience in the store wasnt meeting the standard. Staff can be more attentive. nice coffee, beans tastes acidic, can’t taste much aftertaste, smell gone when start drinking. I like the design of lids, transparent .

    Came here to try their new $7 matcha bubble coffee and due to cold weather so I ask for no ice. Taste was not bad, but next time I will bring my own milk/water to fill up the glass 🙂

  • 5/5 Carlo L. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the nicest iced coffees I have had. The cold tap brew was awesome & mine was made non-dairy, with Oat-ly! Even better than my usual Soy. A great recommendation from cheerful Matt. Thx Matt!! This guy deserves a bonus, he is a real ambassador. It was so delicious, I went back for a second cup & suggested that he re-use my cup & straw &... no problem at all. Great to see the absence of plastic straws!! As Arnie says, "I'll be back".

    Lovely coffee for the most part and cheaper than the Fitzroy location (I think? Might be surcharge issues but 1 small cap on the weekend was $5.2 here and $5.7 in Fitzroy). But ruined by my last sip of coffee which was filled with coffee ground. Might had been an overfilled shot or something but yeah not great.

    Industry Bean's foray into the city, houses a very minimal selection of baked goods. The Almond Croissant's an easy crowd pleaser.

    Loves the simplicity and decor of this nice little cafe, there are very limited seats but I think people mostly do takeaways anyway. Will be coming back to try different coffees on the menu and maybe pastry too?

    Update Dec 2021: Coffee was good and the staff are friendly. I would happily have coffee here if I was in this part of the city. Check out the updated pics! Ok coffee and great interior fitout... It looks very promising so I might check it out later to see if the coffee is any better the second time... Second visit and the coffee was a smidge better so I chucked on another star. I reckon it can still be better though 😉

    I expected a little more from this place because it is on the list of the best cafes in Melbourne, however it was not bad. The service was very friendly.

  • 3/5 Evin L. 3 weeks ago on Google • 50 reviews New
    The coffee taste a little milky than it should be. The staff doesn’t look professional when she’s preparing the coffee. I was there at 3.20pm and wanted a dine in cup to have my coffee there instead of a paper cup but the reply from the staff was “we are closing in 30 mins” then proceed with the takeaway cup. She did not get my acknowledgment at all before proceeding. I understand if I’m there 15-20 mins before closing and they need to clean the place for closing but I’m 40 mins away from closing and I don’t expect such a reply from the staff. Not a pleasant experience.

    This place looks so good! From outside you can see how modern and clean this place looks. They have an amazing coffee bar and they are serving delicious food! The Food menu is short but the good thing is that every menu item seems to be perfectly thought, from the flavours to the presentation. I was looking for something fresh so I got a sweet granola bowl with watermelon for breakfast. It was amazing! The textures on the plate were unbelievable and mixed really well, the mango gel, the pineapple foam, the fresh watermelon and the crunchy granola and the chewy dried cranberries just blew my mind, then I added the milk to the granola and it rounded it all up. On the coffee side I had a Filter Coffee with a very nice taste and it developed a very nice acidity after a while. They have different drinks preparations to try if you fell adventurous. This is a place you definitely have to try. I saw people having some pink bagels that looked amazing. So, What are you waiting for? Stop reading and Go Visit!

    I was craving for coffee in the city and found this place hidden away in Lt. Collins Street. I was greeted by a super friendly staff, and after ordering almond flat white & an almond croissant, I took a seat in their indoor bench. I just loved everything about this little place. The coffee was amazing, and the croissant was the perfect size. Will definitely come back again.

  • 4/5 Benjamin M. 2 years ago on Google
    A tiny bit disappointed, the coffee was really good but for a coffee place like this. You should get a small glass of water when having in. And unfortunately my almond croissant was dead dry. But still would recommend it for a good expresso.

    Nice cafe with clean and simple interior. Vibe was great with minimalistic interior with a section featuring products that you can bring home. Food was fantastic, though very small portion for the price point. Coffee was alright, have had better. Overall, nice place to chill if you are heading to explore the fitzroy area!

  • 4/5 Muhammad Kamran K. 8 months ago on Google
    Found the coffee taste slightly sour, like the machine is not roasting the beans enough, though I took a triple-shot long black. Feeling a bit pricey too seeing $5.70 for a long black.

    I went to grab a coffee and the man with a beard who served me couldn’t manage a a smile or a verbal response to my hello. Obviously I wasn’t cool enough lol Then I asked for a piccolo latte and was told it was $4.50 what the ? When I said $4.50 for a piccolo he said yep!! Don’t go here if you want service.

    I read about this place in a Broadsheet article on good coffee in the CBD. They had it second, but it should be first. This coffee does all the talking here, the place is simple, stark even. But the brew!! Oh the coffee!!! I often have the filter, last time it was Columbian, and today's a Costa-Rican. Both are outstanding. Spot on with the tasting notes also. Great, great coffee in the centre of town. What more do you want?

  • 4/5 Marco F. 4 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Josephine L. 4 years ago on Google
    Not impressed. All I asked for is a perfect long black. Given the robotic coffee machines that they do have, it's a matter of getting the right level of water. All I got is some diluted dark fluid. Poor coffee beans! If I am thirsty, I would get a bottle of water and not a long black. Dear oh dear. It's a totally different story to the one in Fitzroy.

  • 5/5 Nata S. 2 years ago on Google
    Staff were very welcoming. Great interior as well. One major advantage is you still can sit comfortably here, compared to other small specialty coffee shops in the CBD. And of course most importantly the coffee. Ordered latte, taste as same as the last time I went there. Consistent, well balanced espresso, with more on the fruity notes. Just how I like it. Though, price is slightly higher at $4.8 for regular size compared to other places. Apart from that, their coffee beans are usually my go to for filter coffee. Awesome beans choices.
