Cherry Bean & Cocoa
+613 9523 0395
Happened upon a groovy little coffee spot in Elsternwick today that absolutely oozed a comfy funky vibe. But I don’t know whether I was lured in by the wonderful aroma of good coffee floating out the door, or the fact that a “devonshire coffee” was a delicious $5.
Serving and selling jasper coffee and small snacks, they also sell cacao chocolates (and we all know how good they are!). One can choose to sit inside on antique furniture and admire the wares for sale, including espresso machines, coffee (in huge sacks), chocolate, teas and other paraphernalia. Or you can move it outside onto the street and watch the passing parade.
Either way, this organic fairtrade coffee is a damn fine brew.

Hi Carolina - thanks so much for the tips! I haven’t tried the New Guinean beans, so will give that a whirl next time. I’ll drink to you next time I go
