Kines

11 Hope St, Brunswick VIC 3056, Australia

Editor's Review

The name may be Kines, but this doubles up as the house of Wood&Co. In what used to be an old shoe factory now exist a house of roasting, brewing and grilling, you find a fit out very be-fitting of the area, down a back end of a side street in an old factory garage space. It’s very grunge and Brunswick. The outdoor area used to be an open undercover car park and they've done an incredible job converting the whole space – it's vintage and nostalgic. From the plants hanging down off the ceiling and on the wall, graffiti against brick, and gym room benches, it's like you’ve walked through the garage to the backyard.

Wood&Co roast some of the finest filter and the profound flavours and aromas coming through the cup are so clear and pleasant, it’ll leave you wanting more. The twin peaks blend of Colombian and Kenyan is fudge, toffee and mandarin-like through milk and really smooth. There's also a sweet single origin for espresso and they’re also not shy to bring in some beans from different origins such as Mexico. Food-wise, there's a delectable menu, with grilled sandwiches garnished with home made jams and sauces, or if you prefer something sweet, home-made cakes and pastries. It's a great spot.
