Overview
ONA Coffee Brunswick is more than just a café—it’s a showcase of specialty coffee at its most thoughtful, innovative, and accessible. As the Melbourne home of the award-winning Canberra-based roaster founded by world barista champion Sasa Sestic, ONA brings its passion for traceable sourcing, ethical practices, and exceptional flavour to a new level in this spacious inner-north venue.
Tucked into a quiet residential street, the converted warehouse café feels open and calm, with soft timber finishes, high ceilings, and communal tables that encourage connection. At the heart of the experience is coffee—served in multiple forms across rotating menus. Whether you're ordering a silky milk-based blend, an intricate filter brew, or diving into the adventurous “reserve menu” of rare beans and competition-level extractions, every cup is dialled in with purpose and precision.
The food menu is equally refined, offering a selection of seasonal brunch plates with modern Australian and global influences. Think miso-roasted mushrooms, smoked trout benedict, okonomiyaki-style hash browns, and house-baked pastries. Vegetarian and vegan options are well-considered, and presentation is consistently on point.
ONA Coffee’s commitment to sustainability and producer relationships sets it apart, and the Brunswick café brings that story to life in every aspect—from the coffee bar to the kitchen. It’s ideal for coffee aficionados, brunch seekers, or anyone chasing a slower, more immersive café experience in Melbourne’s vibrant north.
