About Officer Coffee

Tucked inside the bluestone corridors of Pentridge, this Coburg nook delivers serious filter coffee alongside hot, glazed cinnamon scrolls pulled straight from the oven. Locals tip each other off to the rotating Born & Raised pours, rare Magnum Sidra filters, and that surprising watermelon latte. The kitchen keeps up with hearty toasted sandos—most notably a savory, crunchy Reuben finished with flaky salt. Vinyl spinning on the deck, unhurried service, and morning pastries make it an easy retreat to linger over a fresh brew.

  • Specialty Brews: Pours rotating Born & Raised single origins alongside specialty brews like Magnum Sidra and watermelon lattes.
  • Toasted Sandos: Serves up crunchy, savory toasted sandwiches including a crowd-favorite Reuben layered with house sauce and flaky salt.
  • In-House Pastries: Bakes cinnamon buns and scrolls fresh on-site, pulled warm from the oven with house glaze.
  • Pentridge Bluestone Nook: Set in historic Pentridge bluestone corridors with natural light, vinyl tunes, and an unhurried neighborhood pace.

Why Visit Officer Coffee

Why locals make this Pentridge bluestone hideaway their daily stop for specialty coffee, house-baked scrolls, and toasted sandos.

  • Fresh In-House Cinnamon Scrolls Baked Daily

    Watch cinnamon buns hand-prepped, baked in small batches, and glazed to order on-site.

    Witnessing these cinnamon rolls go from prep to cut, to being pulled out the oven and carefully dripped is like watching ‘06 Rey Mysterio. It’s fanatically trained-perfect technique coming off as effortless theatre.

  • The Daily Delight of Scoring Fresh Morning Bakes

    Feel the quiet thrill of scoring fresh-from-the-oven morning pastries before the display counter clears out.

    I did come in here a few times before I managed to score a scroll, and the coffee was fantastic every time. The scroll was also amazing

Before you head over

Practical advice on timing, ordering, and dietary considerations for your visit.

    In-house baked cinnamon scrolls are in high demand and sell out quickly. Arrive early in the day if you want to make sure you score one before trays empty.

  • Check dietary and halal options in advance

    The menu leans heavily into toasted meat sandwiches like the signature Reuben and bacon & egg rolls; halal-certified options are not explicitly marked.

  • Plan for a relaxed sit-down visit

    Tucked quietly into the Pentridge bluestone complex, the cafe features upbeat music tracks, cozy seating, and welcoming staff where guests are encouraged to linger without feeling rushed.
