Our Story

Out of a humble garage in Abbotsford, the vision of Au79 – to create one of Melbourne’s premiere cafes – was brought to life.

The simple idea was to share our passion for coffee, thus having a roastery on site and to source the best coffee beans from all around the world. Driven by a very passionate and dedicated team, it quickly turned into an ambitious project, where the same values were implemented into every corner of the cafe. Our new dream then became – to be of Gold Standard in everything we do. Thus, an on site bakery, patisserie, chocolatier as well as function space were added to the picture. Seating over 200 guests, the amazing fairy tale came to fruition. Now everyday we get to share this story with our customers and guests and can’t wait to continue this journey with each and everyone of you.
