About Us

Welcome to Canvas Town Coffee.

Our journey through the aromatic world of coffee began back in 2005 when our founder dipped his toes into the captivating waters of the third-wave coffee movement. Fast forward to today, he continues to share his love, dedication, and expertise in crafting the finest coffee experiences with you.

Embarking on this delightful venture in 2018, our roasting odyssey started in a cosy co-roasting space in Coburg. Since then, we’ve been roasting at Port Melbourne, where magic happens every Tuesday.

"What sets Canvas Town Coffee apart?", you wondered.

At Canvas Town Coffee, we believe in the art of hands-on craftsmanship. Each specialty-grade green bean variety is handpicked and meticulously curated by our founder, to ensure nothing but the highest quality makes it to your cup. And we take pride in roasting these treasures to be enjoyed as single origin coffee or as a blend of several coffees, such as our award-winning Seasonal Espresso Blend - "Placebo".

Now, here's the exciting part – you can bring the Canvas Town Coffee experience home! Our carefully roasted beans are available online, waiting to be brewed and savoured in the comfort of your own space.

Alternatively, let the skilled baristas at Philoçoffee Espresso Bar, our cosy café arm located at South Melbourne, craft your perfect cup just the way you like it.

But wait, there’s more! If you find yourself indulging in the culinary wonders of Komeyui, the one-hatted Japanese restaurant nestled in South Melbourne, be sure to ask for a cup of Canvas Town Coffee to elevate your dining experience.

At Canvas Town Coffee, it's not just about coffee; it's about weaving connections, one delightful cup at a time. Join us on this aromatic adventure, and let’s make every sip a memorable one. 


Cheers to the perfect blend of warmth and friendship,

Chee Loo
Founder
