    Best place for coffee in the CBD! The two barista brothers are super friendly and chatty and the other staff there are also very welcoming. I’ve tried so many cafes in the CBD and the coffee here is incredible and made expertly with care every time. Recommend trying their vegan choc almond slice with a coffee it’s the perfect duo. The vibes here are definitely on point!

    The coffee was maybe 9 out of 10 - a strong body but lacked any finesse flavour. That being said the service here is second to none and you will always be greeted with a smile

    I always feel in love with the little cosy coffee shops, I don’t know but I started to believe that there is a unique relationship between a small narrow cafes and a good coffee. Had a pleasant time here and a really fine coffee and super friendly staff. You do have great vibes at your little place. One small strong latte = 3.90$ which is cheaper than most of Melbourne cafes.

    Very small, cosy shop, but great friendly service. They were welcoming as I entered the store and prepared my drink quickly. I will definitely be returning when I'm in the area.

    THE BEST COFFEE IN AUSTRALIA, These brothers are no less than magicians!! They turn Coffee into A Golden Elixir that refreshes you up to Face the Day with Smile and Confidence. Kudos to their Coffee and Service. Way to Go. Vivek

    These guys have ruined local coffee for me now. My girlfriend and family are tired of hearing me say “it’s alright, but it’s no Bearded Brothers” every time we get coffee anywhere else. Great service, friendly staff, and really like using the app to order ahead (can even earn points to redeem coffees later on.) Go to spot in the area for me.

    Fellas are open at 6am. Can't go wrong with a coffee at that time on the way to work, plus a smile with great service at such an early time. The coffee itself is top notch too. Would rate 10/5 if I could just for the opening time.

    Delicious coffee and pastries, friendly staff and fast service! A great spot for a coffee in the city.

  • 5/5 Sharania V. 3 years ago on Google
    Such a wonderful experience this morning at their cafe! My partner had his Cappuccino and I ordered a strong chai. The drinks were so beautifully presented and the staff was very nice and friendly. My chair was a little weak and when I told them, they made me a fresh batch and it was just the perfect cup of Chai! I highly recommend them if you are in the city 🤩

    So friendly barista’s there. I ordered soy latte, and the taste was super! Fast service and good experience☺️

  • 5/5 Julian M. 4 months ago on Google
    While the coffee and pastries are absolutely on point, it is by far the customer service that lifts this place above and beyond! So nice and fast service given always so popular!

  • 3/5 Georgin L. 6 months ago on Google
    Coffee is good but not super good by Melbourne standards.

    Great little café, the staff are always smiling and very friendly… and more importantly the coffee is good! I also love the different coloured lids on the coffee cups, it’s not something I’ve seen anyone else do before!

    The mini muffins won’t disappoint you. Coffee is also good. The opening hours are early 6 am which is a good point.

    Love the coffee but the staff and service is fantastic…especially when you have customers who completely stuff up their (my) online coffee order…ha ha thanks for accommodating my numerous errors! Love the morning pick me up before work!

  • 5/5 Sneha V. 2 years ago on Google
    My go-to place for a coffee or chai before work. They're serving some of the best coffee in the city. They have the friendliest and loveliest baristas ❤️ also grab their toasties if you're hungry. They're simple and super tasty.

  • 3/5 M A. 1 year ago on Google
    It was my first visit to this café. The staff 🧔🏻‍♂️there are so friendly and welcoming. The waiting is a bit long but it is worth. The coffee is great but not super good. I believe they can make it better☕️. If you are looking for a cafe in the CBD this shop might be one of the choices but not no 1. I hope the best for them.

  • 1/5 Courtney O. 2 years ago on Google
    I was really looking forward to trying coffee from Bearded Brothers. Unfortunately, I was really disappointed. The staff were unprofessional, I also noticed the bar was really untidy with old shots left on the bench. I ordered an iced latte, basic drink yes, but can still be done right and be great if fresh. One staff member was collecting ice from the fridge and looking at it like "I think I can use this?". After that my drink was made in 10 seconds, so you know I know those old shots were used for my drink. It was so disappointing, I should have said something at the time but I just walked away, took one sip and threw the drink out. I know this place is capable of making good coffee but my experience was not that.

  • 5/5 Alisha L. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this small cafe. I've only ever been here for a takeaway coffee but the two gentlemen usually working are very friendly. They always bring out my coffee with a smile and wish me a great day. The coffee I order (Lg Oat Flat White) is consistently delicious! Thank you!

  • 5/5 Christyna T. 2 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    You know it's great coffee when you order another one for the go!! If you are after a great coffee, you can't go past this little hole in the wall. My go-to coffee shop when I'm down in Melbourne. Amazing coffee, delicious toasties, and impeccable service. I even tried these new power cubes - great for an energy hit and definatley hit the spot. A must try if you're in the CBD 😊
