About MAKER Richmond

Tucked behind a roller door in a Richmond backstreet, this airy roastery pours dialled-in single origins and batch brew beside humming machinery. Large viewing glass reveals the roasting workshop out back, while the front room fills with sunlit greenery, cycling crews, and the hiss of sparkling water on tap. Regulars stop in for a smooth flat white and an almond croissant, lingering over pour-overs at the communal benches.

  • Precision Filter & Single Origins: Baristas pour dialled-in batch brews, V60 filters, and single-origin espressos alongside retail beans for home setups.
  • Visible Roastery Workshop: Massive glass windows let guests watch beans roast in the production workshop while sipping at sunlit warehouse tables.
  • Sparkling on Tap & Bites: Still and sparkling water flow on tap to accompany fresh almond croissants and toasted sandwiches.

Why Visit MAKER Richmond

Why coffee enthusiasts and remote workers make the Richmond warehouse their regular roastery destination.

  • Curated Single Origins and Pour-Overs

    Specialty coffee is meticulously dialed in across pour-overs, V60s, and precision single origins roasted on-site.

    At $6.00 ... one of the best Pour Over Colombian Aldemar Quistal beans I've had in Melbourne.

  • Fresh Beans for Home Brewers

    Patrons rely on the roastery to restock bags of signature beans suited for home brewing methods like Aeropress and stovetop.

    Remains my preferred choice for both espresso and buying beans for my Aeropress at home.

    You can see the workshop through the glass and the roasting machine.

  • Educational Barista Engagement

    Knowledgeable baristas enthusiastically guide visitors through bean origins, tasting notes, and extraction techniques.

    I really appreciated her going out of her way to explain the different coffee varieties. I can tell she is really passionate and knowledgeable about what she does.

  • Sunlit Warehouse Work Haven

    The airy, naturally illuminated warehouse offers a calm spot with street parking to focus on laptop work or unwind.

    great place to sit and enjoy a coffee & in my case, get some online work done.

  • Sparkling Water on Tap

    Attentive hospitality extends to complimentary still and sparkling water brought directly to tables without needing to ask.

    Still and sparkling water on tap and they brought us our water without asking, which is great to see.
