A Melbourne Coffee Icon: Quists Coffee Roasters - Serving the City Since 1938
Melbourne's love affair with coffee is undeniable. We're a city where cafes are as ubiquitous as trams, and baristas are revered artisans. But in this bustling world of flat whites and lattes, one name stands out: Quist's Coffee Roasters.
Established in 1938, Quist's holds the esteemed title of Melbourne's oldest coffee roaster. That's right, for over 85 years, they've been fueling our city's coffee obsession. With Melbourne being a global coffee capital, it would be remiss of Only Melbourne not to celebrate this long-standing institution.
A Legacy Brewed in History: The Little Collins Street Anchor
Quists' story began on Little Collins Street, where their flagship store still proudly stands today. Founded by a Danish gentleman named Mr. Quist, the shop catered to a growing European migrant community, a testament to Melbourne's rich multicultural tapestry.
Over the decades, Quists has witnessed the city's transformation. They've remained a constant, the aroma of freshly roasted beans a familiar comfort amidst the ever-changing streetscape. Their Little Collins Street store is a living piece of Melbourne's coffee history, a place where tradition and innovation meet.
