Over 25 Years in the Australian Coffee Scene

The Coffee Emporium began in 1991 in Bankstown, Sydney, a vibrant community where cultures and flavours intertwined. Founders John and Sam launched their first roastery café, blending traditional European brewing methods with a passion for exceptional coffee. Their café quickly became a sensation, drawing visitors from across Sydney after a glowing newspaper review.

Seeing an opportunity to share their signature coffee blend on a larger scale, John and Sam established The Coffee Emporium. By 2006, they launched their first franchise in Blacktown, Sydney, setting the foundation for a growing network of over 30 locations, from kiosks to full-service restaurants.

Resilient through challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, The Coffee Emporium continues to thrive, bringing premium coffee and great food to communities nationwide. With a legacy of quality and innovation, the journey is far from over—more exciting openings are just around the corner.

Welcome to The Coffee Emporium—a passion for coffee, built to last.

THE STORE FORMATS

KIOSK

INVESTMENT: FROM $250K

Our kiosk is a smaller store that requires less team to operate, a refined menu, and requires the smallest investment.

You’ll find our kiosk stores in community centres anchored by supermarkets and fresh food offers. This model is perfect for someone who is looking to purchase their first food business.

CLASSIC
INVESTMENT: FROM $350K
A Cafe store is a full store format located in a non-traditional location such as hospitals, universities, high street tenancies or transport hubs (rail stations, airports etc.).
CAFE
INVESTMENT: FROM $400K

A traditional store is based in larger shopping centres and relies on high levels of foot traffic.

These stores can be either kiosks or in-line layouts and are typically located at the entrance to a food court or a highly visible location in a fresh food precinct.
