Ottimo Coffee Roasters

Cheltenham industrial estate coffee roastery with a Slayer machine and 15 fresh-roasted beans

Relaxed, warm and upbeat, with a tasting-bar feel, good music and comfortable seating inside a tidy warehouse space. Regulars are greeted by name and it is dog friendly.

In-house roasting of about 15 beans, Slayer espresso machine, bean refills with your own container, biodegradable Nespresso-compatible pods, drip coffee packets, reconditioned commercial grinders, workplace coffee machines and barista training.

A long-running roaster, with reviewers noting around 20 years roasting and a few years of the coffee bar. It reads as classic Melbourne laneway coffee culture in an industrial setting.

Reviewers see coffee quality as well worth the price. One was caught out by an unannounced price rise on the menu, and bread is about $10 a loaf but described as worth it.
