Quists Coffee

Cafe Coffee shop

👍👍 I had a deicious latte. One of my clients at work recommended trying this coffee shop as her family has been their regular customer since World War II! I was surprised they are first coffee roasters in Melbourne since 1938. Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. People often mention coffee, shop, staff, great, Melbourne, Great, friendly, service, beans,

    They have the best soy latte ever! Very friendly staff as they helped me to choose a moka pot I can use at home. I’ll be going back to buy fresh ground coffee every now and then. Great coffee roaster indeed as it is their 80th anniversary this year!

    Our local coffee shop when working in the CBD. It's not just the coffee but the service from the owner/staff who bring your coffee out to you on the street and of course the little biscuit, it's what keeps us coming back. Thanks guys

    I happen to come into Melbourne and stumbled across Quist quite by accident. It was coffee time and today wanted to try it with soy milk due to a little reaction to cows milk recently. The coffee was great and couldn't sit and drink as this place has not seating - totally takeaway. You can actually buy your coffee beans from them as well which is nice if you enjoy what they have on offer. The look of the place is fun and interesting, something from a century ago. There is also a small retail part to this place where you can pick up an eclectic tea / coffee item for that someone special. Staff are very helpful and seem to know many of their regulars by name. Wheelchair friendly. Kid friendly. Pram/stroller accessible. Reasonable parking. Dietaries catered for. Takeaway food available.

    Pretty packed and busy esp during rush hour. Coffee is decent, not fruity but not bland either, they drop you a biscuit with the coffee though, which is nice :)

    Great magic coffee here, probably the best cafe in Melbourne🤵🏻‍♂️☕️👌🏻

    Nice almond latte and quick serving even with so many customer waiting at counter.

    Genuinely my favorite coffee shop in the CBD. The staff are the kindest, most knowledgeable, quick to remember face and name, and most importantly serve good coffee. Their prices are great as well, they could easily be charging a dollar or two more for a coffee, but dont. Only thing to watch out for is your sense of dress, a lot of suits have this as their favorite too, so I occasionally feel irrationally underdressed haha

    Best cup of coffee I've ever had. I asked what a "Magic" was, and ordered it straight away. Delicious, perfect milk to coffee ratio, and super strong and flavourful. Nice chat with the barista about his experiences sharing Melbourne coffee culture overseas. The whole experience was less than 5 mins, but incredibly memorable. Will be back next time we're in town!

    If you know, you know. A lot of well known coffee shop on this lane but all the office workers are standing outside of Quists.

  • 2/5 Chiak Si Mi P. 10 months ago on Google
    Worst coffee I ever had. It was luke warm and diluted. So much talk about making the right ratio mix and make with love. Nothing magic.

  • 5/5 Tasya S. 10 months ago on Google
    The best coffee I’ve ever had in Melbourne

  • 5/5 Em D. 1 year ago on Google
    By far the best coffee on the eastern side of the Melbourne CBD, if not the entire CBD. From espressos to flat whites - they know how to make properly good coffee. Knocks hippy cafes out of the park. If you like your coffee neat, their long black is characterful, full bodied and smooth with a balanced roast. Highly recommend.

    I have been purchasing beans from quists and know the roaster and talk to him about getting a good coffee etc, came into the city to try the coffee shop coffee finally, disappointed is an understatement, attitude of staff is very so so, tried to ask questions as I thought they’d be friendly like their roaster but couldn’t be bothered, coffee was weak and they gave more froth than coffee.Ask for more milk and instead of being no problem it was attitude.

    Fantastic take-away coffee. Smooth, fragrant, long finish. Smiling welcoming service. Awesome range of coffee (and tea) products and everything for the home and professional barista.

  • 5/5 Robert J. 1 year ago on Google
    A true coffee shop. Not a cafe, not a restaurant, not some place that serves coffee. A coffee shop! Delicious, handmade coffee.

    Amazing shop with physical weights and very knowledgable staff who know everything about their coffee. Worth a visit for the unique experience as well as some of Melbourne's best coffee.

  • 5/5 Mark G. 1 year ago on Google
    The coffee and service from this family business are excellent. I order beans online which are delivered the next day in the event they don't have stock of an item the back order is express posted free of charge.

  • 5/5 Adrian S. 2 years ago on Google
    No pics but this is a great little coffee shop in one of the smaller lanes. Very pleasant staff (even though one supports Liverpool FC) and the coffee is great.

  • 5/5 richard a. 4 years ago on Google
    A very good black coffee, probably the best in Melbourne

  • 5/5 Luke M. 3 years ago on Google
    The best coffee in Melbourne hands down. The friendly staff served an extremely flavoursome latte and even threw in a delicious amaretti with the coffee. Quists Coffee are my new go-to coffee roasters. Do yourself a favour and give them a go.

    Go to for coffee. Worth the trip wherever you are for the iced coffee. Variety of coffee implements for sale as well as beans and cocoa.

  • 5/5 Caz G. 2 years ago on Google
    Great coffee. Great service. I ordered online at 11.14 and it was delivered to my door at 11.44! I also ordered some of the chocolate powder (French Mint). Wow. Delish!
