Rio's hidden gem: where Australian craft coffee meets Brazilian soul. Discover unique blends, a renowned cortado, and a vibrant community hub.

Nestled down a long corridor, this specialty coffee haven, founded by Australian expatriate Daniel Hobbs, offers an exclusive "hidden gem" experience in Rio de Janeiro. Hobbs, with over a decade in Brazil, infuses an authentic Australian coffee cultural perspective into the vibrant local scene. The café's unique soul blends Australian memorabilia with rotating works by local artists, creating a distinctive aesthetic.
More than just a coffee shop, it functions as a cherished community hub where patrons often work, fostering a culture that values experience and connection over high-volume turnover.The commitment to exceptional coffee is evident in their dual-sourcing approach, utilizing both local Brazilian farms and specialty roasters from Australia. This ensures a diverse and high-quality bean selection, expertly prepared on a La Marzocco espresso machine, a hallmark of third-wave cafés.
Their signature cortado is renowned for its distinct rich, chocolatey undertones, a must-try for any visitor. Complementing their food menu, a popular house-made spicy sauce offers a unique culinary creation, adding another layer to this truly special establishment.
