Why it's worth checking out
Code Black Coffee sits on Weston Street in Brunswick, one of Melbourne's most vibrant and eclectic inner-north suburbs. The Brunswick HQ of the renowned Code Black roastery — a name highly regarded in Melbourne's specialty coffee scene — it's a genuine destination for coffee lovers, combining genuinely excellent, freshly roasted coffee with quality cafe fare and a characterful, warehouse-style setting.
The appeal is that combination of seriously good specialty coffee, quality cafe fare and a cool, characterful atmosphere in a great Brunswick location, ideal for a proper cup, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up. Code Black's stellar reputation in specialty coffee makes it a real drawcard for anyone who takes their cup seriously, and it's clearly won over a big, loyal following.
