Plan your visitAbout Midi Coffee
Tucked behind the Corner Hotel, this compact Richmond outpost pairs dialed-in specialty espresso with standout takeaway sandwiches. Natural timber warms the small space, cutting through morning transit rush. Instead of barking names from the counter, the crew spots your face and brings your order straight to you in the waiting room. Commuters lean on creamy almond caps, snappy batch brew, or an afternoon magic. The concise food cabinet keeps it focused—think hearty sopressa baguettes and toasted sourdough melts like cauliflower or cheddar alongside a slaw-packed salad sandwich.
- Personal Hand-Delivery: Baristas memorize faces and hand-deliver orders directly into the waiting crowd rather than calling names from the counter.
- Curated Takeaway Counter: A tightly edited cabinet spotlights hearty sopressa baguettes, cauliflower melts, and stacked salad sandwiches.
- Calm Transit Respite: Clean timber accents provide a grounding pause just off Swan Street and Richmond station.

Before you head over
Practical tips for navigating queues, seating, and takeaway orders at Midi Coffee.
Expect Crowds but Hand-Delivered Orders
Expect a morning and lunchtime rush with lines out the door, but staff memorize who ordered and personally bring items to you rather than calling out names.
Plan for Takeaway Over Dining In
Seating inside is intentionally minimal, making it ideal for grabbing a quick coffee and takeaway sandwich near Richmond station rather than sitting down for a long brunch.
Watch for Beetroot Drips on Salad Sandwiches
If taking away the fresh salad sandwich, be mindful that the beetroot can leak through the packaging on your commute.
