Premium Coffee Roasters in East Bendigo | Custom Coffees
Established in 2000, Custom Coffees began as Grata Gourmet Coffees, addressing the need for independent coffee roasting beyond Melbourne's dominance. As pioneers in regional Victoria, we became the first coffee roaster based outside the state's capital, introducing artisanal coffee to local cafes. Our rebranding to Custom Coffees marked a period of growth, supported by a move to a modern facility in East Bendigo. This relocation reflected the evolving perception of coffee as a craft, not just a commodity. With over 25 years of expertise, we continue to roast premium specialty coffees, prioritising quality and innovation.Our commitment to excellence is rooted in sincerity and integrity, values that guide every aspect of our operations. We serve cafes and restaurants nationwide, offering tailored solutions that elevate their coffee offerings. Our team combines deep industry knowledge with a passion for coffee, ensuring clients receive expert guidance and reliable service. From bold espresso blends to delicate single origins, our products embody the craftsmanship that defines our brand. Today, we remain dedicated to pushing boundaries in coffee excellence while maintaining the authenticity that has shaped our legacy.

I Have had coffee all around the globe and nothing stakes up to what I buy from Custom Coffee . Bombora, Veluto and Vespa are amongst my favs . Even when Im out having lunch and chatty catch ups , I cant wait to get home and have my glossy aromatic beans freshly ground with my oat milk .
