Our Story

A neighbourhood café, built cup by cup.

Ember & Oak started as a two-person roastery with one belief: great coffee should feel unhurried. Eight years on, we're still small on purpose — one café, one roaster, and a team of baristas who remember your name and your usual.

The Craft

Three steps between the farm and your table.

Anyone can buy good beans. The difference is in the daily discipline — roast, dial in, pour — repeated without compromise.

01

Roast light, roast fresh

We roast in 12 kg batches and rest beans 7–10 days, so every cup lands right in its sweetest window.

02

Dialled in daily

Grind, dose, and yield are checked each morning — and again after lunch, when the room warms up.

03

Poured with intent

Milk steamed to silk, shots pulled to order. If a cup isn't right, we remake it — no questions.
