The Roasted Berry

From a humble seed grows a coffee plant… as the plant matures it produces brilliant red berries.

Inside these red berries are the heart or seed of the world’s favourite drink… coffee!

Once this seed is roasted, it becomes a beloved coffee bean. This… is our inspiration for The Roasted Berry, where your coffee is always made with love.

AJ, The Roasted Berry Supervisor says “When I serve a customer a coffee, I want them to feel loved, I want them to feel warm, I want them to feel at home. And I want them to taste the passion that’s been put into that coffee.”

Our Barista’s genuinely love coffee. They’re masters in creating great coffee just the way you like it.

Espresso, long black, short black, mocha, cappuccino, latte…they even experiment with specialty flavours like cold-drip and nitro.

We also have artists amongst the Barista team…feathers, leaves, swans, flowers and teddy bears, but our signature is the heart. It’s the symbol of passion.

Love and care, and this is what we put in every cup.

Our coffee

The love coffee is something we don’t take for granted at The Roasted Berry.

We understand how people feel about great coffee and how it sets up their day. To ensure we deliver consistently great coffee we found a coffee partnership with world-renowned Australian coffee producer, ONA Coffee and World Barista Champion, Sasa Sestic.

This wonderful partnership has seen the team at ONA give the gift of expert coffee training to our team, as well as speciality roasting us our own coffee blends. There’s nothing ONA don’t know about coffee. Their team are among the best in the world and ONA is a believer in quality coffee that is ethically sourced, sustainable and provide support to farmers and their communities along the way.
