At Vacation Coffee, we focus on the highest quality specialty coffee, roasted right here in Melbourne.
With a passion for naturally processed coffees, we bring years of knowledge and care to every roast — always aiming to highlight the best in each bean.
Our Roasting Style
Espresso: Medium
Filter: Medium-light
This approach creates approachable, smooth coffee that’s sweet, balanced, and full of character — with a deliciously silky mouthfeel.
Because when it comes to coffee, there’s no such thing as too sweet.

Our coffee is roasted in Melbourne
Vacation started in 2016, then an unnamed roastery supplying coffee to some of the best cafes around Melbourne, and operating out of a communal roasting space in Cremorne.
Founders Jimmy, Matt and Kael, each well-established within the specialty coffee and hospitality world, sought out a venue for the first brick-and-mortar Vacation cafe.
A year later, in 2017, their search was over. An espresso bar that seats 10 was built at the base of a historic building, with views of Flinders St.
In 2021 Vacation Cremorne opened it’s doors. A more intimate space, Vacation Cremorne is a beautifully styled espresso bar tucked away off Church St. Concrete slab and natural woods frame a more contemplative coffee experience, away from the buzz and bustle of the CBD.
The same year, Vacation moved house. Now roasting out of a dedicated space in Brunswick, equipped with a Diedrich IR12 roaster. The roasting team is now afforded greater space and flexibility to tweak roasts and to taste and cup coffees, ensuring a high level of quality control and consistency.
Vacation Coffee respectfully acknowledges the traditional owners and custodians of the country on which we work.
