Urban Grind has reopened in Paddington at 131 Latrobe Tce.
the shop
Urban Grind is a small cafe dedicated to coffee and community. We like to keep it simple – no decaf, no cream, no frills, just good coffee. Sure we sell some food, cold drinks, and a small choice of teas that includes an awesome chai tea… but basically it is Espresso Coffee – fast (not instant) – prepared with care, attention and passion by a team of great staff that understand the joy of building and being part of a community.
Urban Grind strives to be a community encouraging business. For me a big attraction to coffee is the way it has the potential to bring people together. Conversation is also very important to us. Still trying to find the words to describe this side of Urban Grind which for me is a really core aspect.
the coffee
DiBella has, for over 10 years now provided us with a coffee that has never failed to impress. We use their Premium Blend which is a full flavoured, medium to strong, aromatic coffee with a distinctive rich velvety texture, delivering to the palate a smooth aftertaste, which leaves you wanting another – the way coffee should be. Phillip DiBella’s Premium Blend is roasted locally using top quality arabican beans.
We NOW offer a selection or single origin beans from louie louie. You have the option of tasting this selection via four brewing methods: espresso, siphon, chemex or cold brew. Just ask our friendly staff about what beans are availible and what method you would like to try.
We do the basics. Flat White, Latte, Cappuccino, Short Black, Long Black, etc. We can do just about all coffees as long as it doesn’t have cream, ice cream or a lack of caffeine. We also do iced coffees made on Cold Brew or espresso. We have take-away 250g bags of beans that we can grind fresh to your needs. If you like Syphon coffee we do that too.
For the non-coffee drinker.
We have an awesome Chai Tea and a small selection of other teas. We also have a selection of cold drinks that include Charlie’s Juices and Phoenix soft drinks.
Food
We NOW OFFER a full breakfast and lunch menu to compliment your coffee. Muffins, Brownies, Small Cakes, Muesli, Banana Bread, Organic Fruit Toast & Short Breads are all still availible but with addition of some amazing NEW options.
