"What an amazing place!... Great seating outdoors, great service, the girls are really something else and give their best. Of course coffee is superb, aside from espresso they also have batch brew and a nice pourover menu! I spent here almost all my holiday mornings in Brisbane!"

"I really enjoyed the bright and comfortable atmosphere — it made the whole experience very relaxing. Being able to choose from such a great selection of high-quality coffee beans was also a lot of fun. Most of all, the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. I’d especially like to thank Enru, who consistently recommended excellent coffees and prepared them with great care. A wonderful place for both great coffee and a great experience. I’ll definitely be back!"

"The barista is enthusiastic and interesting. She will introduce different types of beans for you to choose from, including single-origin beans and ona blends. There is also an excellent dirty. The bottom is cold milk and the top is hot espresso. The taste is very magical when you finish it quickly"

"Believe me when I say this coffee shop will be my go-to for the rest of my days. Every single worker at Cups delivers such an incredibly positive and warm experience every time I rock up - which is everyday for my morning cappuccino before work! A special shout out to my girls (and boys) Monica, William & Sarah because they seriously are the dream team. Coffee is by far the best in west end and I can say that because I live & work in west end so I’ve tried most of the spots! 10/10/10 for service, experience and product at Cups on Melbourne."

"The Halloween special coffee was amazing — I loved the chocolate and berry notes! The citrus summer coffee was also really good, and the foam on top is my absolute favourite. The barista girl was super lovely too! I’ll definitely come back."
