About Little Homey

Tucked away in Brunswick, Little Homey pairs carefully pulled espresso and warm vinyl beats with the communal soul of a creative living room. Settle into an armchair while hip hop and R&B spin on the turntable, or browse through the adjacent art gallery between orders. Regulars pass up standard cafe fare for spiced Africafe coffee, red lattes, and house-made cookies.

  • Gallery & Vinyl Sessions: Spins vintage soul, funk, and hip hop records alongside a rotating art gallery and community workshop space.
  • Distinctive Specialty Brews: Pours non-traditional drinks like spiced Africafe coffee, red lattes, and strawberry matcha alongside espresso.

Why Choose Little Homey

Discover why locals make Little Homey their go-to Brunswick sanctuary for vinyl, art, and crafted drinks.

  • Curated Vinyl & Lounge Atmosphere

    Guests relax on comfy couches surrounded by curated vinyl spins, warm decor, and soulful hip hop, funk, and R&B records.

    They also do music nights with classic vinyl records which is my absolute favourite playing hip hop, reggae, rnb a bit of everything really

  • Unpretentious Homestyle Comfort

    With an intimate and cozy setup, visiting feels like relaxing in a close mate's lounge room rather than a conventional commercial venue.

    Cozy and unpretentious, with an array of tasty beverages and bangin’ tunes (the café pays homage to black hip hop, soul, funk, and R&B artists), Little Homey feels just like you’re hanging out at a mate’s place.

  • Creative Workshops & Gallery Co-Location

    Neighbours and locals drop by to catch up over coffee, browse the adjoining Honey Bones gallery, and attend sewing and art workshops.

    When we visited, there was an introductory sewing workshop taking place and the feeling of community was vibrant.

  • Community & Creativity Collide

    Regular patrons and visitors find a lively hub where neighbours stay for conversations and connect over events.

    It’s where community and creativity collide. A cosy space inside but plenty outside. Plus they support local in all the right ways.

  • Distinctive Specialty Drinks

    Beyond classic coffee, the bar crafts specialty creations including caffeine-free red lattes, spiced Africafe, and iced drinks.

    red latte is an incredible, soothing, vegan, caffeine free drink - highly recommend if you're looking for an afternoon treat.

  • House Spiced Coffee Roasts

    Warm spiced coffee options like Africafe provide an ideal pick-me-up to enjoy alongside a book in an armchair.

    I tried the Africafe coffee which was absolutely incredible, perfectly spiced and warm for the cold weather.

    If you're in need of a coffee (or, in my case, an oat milk iced chocolate) Little Homey is well worth the visit.
