There is an illusion that Melbourne is a coffee heaven, but unfortunately that is not completely true. Some of the best cafes occasionally make a bad coffee - in fact most Artisanal Roasters concentrate too much on pulling perfect shots but goes on to make you a super weak milk-based coffee! Sometimes the blends change too quickly and a substituted bean or different roast batch will make the cup taste entirely different. Quists Coffee is a traditional European roasting coffee style, which tends to use blends and dark roasting levels more resembling Mocha-Java in taste.
Also found in the City, next to wonderful Italian restaurant il Bacaro ..
Definitely no 3rd Waver modern equipment here -

You know there is a café that I really hate in Melbourne and it is called Pellegrini, but they always get mentioned in the outdated travel books. I refuse to go there for coffee because the last time I went I donated the bitter drink to a nearby tree. Unfortunately, this suffered the same fate. This was darker and roastier, more bitter than French roast coffees or anything I’ve drank in Italy. It is certainly not a Terzi Caffe or Caffe Tazza D’Oro ~ 3/10
It might have its own crowd that it can attract -
But it is not really my style at all.

Sounds great. It will surely be cool to hang out in Quists Coffee and try out these different flavors.
