MELBOURNE | Rumble Coffee have been roasting coffee in Kensington since 2014. During that time, Rumble have not only built a reputation as one of Melbourne’s best coffee roasters, but as one of the city’s most ethical. They’re B-Corp Certified, dedicated to full transparency in their sourcing process, and ensuring at those involved at all steps of the process, from farm to cup, are paid fairly.
Rumble recently opened an Espresso Bar around the corner from the roastery, which I recently visited for What’s on Melbourne. Rumble Coffee Espresso Bar is located inside Kensington’s new “Local:” apartment development, and is a bright, modern space that allows co-founders Matt Hampton and Joe Molloy to showcase the heart of what they do.
It’s all about coffee here, with no on-site kitchen. You’ll find Rumble’s signature blends on offer, as well as rotating single origins for both filter and espresso. It’s a tight drinks menu with white or black espresso-based coffee, and batch brew of pourover for filter. Choose your bean and brew, and you’re sorted. For non-coffee drinkers, there’s also hot or iced chai, hot chocolate, matcha, and a cascara spritz.
You can buy the full range of Rumble beans for home, along with an assortment of coffee equipment and accessories. If do want a little something to eat, there’s a small selection of quality pastries from Matt and Joe’s nearby bakery, Double Dutch.
