About Us
About South Coast Coffee Co.
Coffee, rooted in the Gold Coast
South Coast Coffee Co. began with a simple goal: make coffee that tastes great.
Founded on 1 July 2015 at Capri on Via Roma on the Gold Coast, we’re a specialty coffee roaster built around thoughtful roasting, welcoming service and the pleasure of a genuinely good cup.
In mid-2020, Pomeroys Coffee Roasters became South Coast Coffee Co.—a name that better reflects where our journey began and the community we’re proud to call home.
Why South Coast?
Before it became known as the Gold Coast, the region from Southport to Coolangatta was called the South Coast. Following World War II, it became a popular holiday destination, and the nickname “Gold Coast” emerged as property prices rose. The South Coast Town Council formally adopted the Gold Coast name in 1958, and the city was proclaimed in 1959.
For us, South Coast Coffee Co. is a quiet nod to those original roots. It represents who we are: local, grounded and focused on the things that matter.
We’re not interested in making grand claims. Coffee is personal—what one person loves may not be another person’s cup of tea. Our job is simply to roast and serve coffee with care, so you can discover your own favourite.
Our journey
Since opening, our coffees have been recognised by some of the industry’s most respected judges. We’ve earned two silver medals in 2016; a silver and bronze in 2017; two bronze medals in 2018 at the Australian International Coffee Awards in Melbourne; and a silver and bronze at the Golden Bean in 2019.
But awards are only part of the story. We started as coffee drinkers fascinated by the craft and transformation of roasting, with a desire to create a café that feels as welcoming as home. Every coffee we roast and every customer we serve is part of that original vision.
Coffee and tea, made with care
We bring the same attention to our tea range. Every tea has its own character, so we brew each one at the right temperature and for the right amount of time to bring out its best flavour. It may take a little longer, but we think it’s worth the wait.
Whether you’re looking for a new coffee to enjoy, quality tea, or an experienced roasting partner for your café, we’d love to welcome you in.
