# Coffee in Collingwood Collingwood packs some of Melbourne's best coffee into a few backstreets. Proud Mary is on Oxford Street, with its roastery bar Aunty Peg's a block away on Wellington Street. Everyday and Acoffee are neighbours on Sackville Street, Ageyo is on Easey Street, and tiny Plug Nickel is a short walk south on Peel Street. ## The shops 1. [Proud Mary Coffee](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/proud-mary-coffee.md) (Collingwood · Must-try). Proud Mary opened off Smith Street in 2009 and roasts all its coffee a block away, at its Aunty Peg's roastery. It was one of the first Melbourne cafés to brew its blends and single origins on V60, AeroPress and cold drip, and those methods are still on the menu. It ranked fourth on the World's 100 Best Coffee Shops list in 2025 and 27th in 2026. Expect a queue, a bright warehouse room and a kitchen that runs until mid-afternoon. 2. [Aunty Peg's](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/aunty-pegs.md) (Collingwood · Must-try). Aunty Peg's is Proud Mary's roastery, opened in 2014, with a coffee bar at the front. At the brew bar a barista serves you one to one, talks you through the coffees and may offer a taste or a smell before you choose. The list runs to champion roasts and rare Geisha lots, and the nitro cold brew comes in a beer glass. It is also a training space and a shop for beans and brewing gear, a short walk from the Proud Mary café. 3. [ACOFFEE](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/acoffee.md) (Collingwood · Must-try). Acoffee roasts in a converted Collingwood garage painted so white it looks more like a tech store than a café. Co-owner and coffee director Byoung-Woo Kang, Australia's 2014 cup tasting champion and a former Market Lane roaster, roasts lighter than is usual to keep each coffee bright and clear. The espresso machine sits on a long island bench, and filter roasts and drip bags are on the shelf to take home. A second Acoffee works on Russell Street in the CBD. 4. [Everyday Coffee](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/everyday-coffee.md) (Collingwood · Must-try). Everyday opened in 2013 pouring beans from other Melbourne roasters, and since 2019 it has roasted its own at the back of this vast red-brick warehouse in Collingwood. Espresso and filter both come from the house roasts, and every coffee arrives with a glass of sparkling water. The menu is mostly bagels, with cinnamon scrolls in the cabinet, and local DJs play on the sound system. As the name says, it trades every day of the year. Its smaller CBD sibling, Everyday Midtown, is on Little Collins Street. 5. [Plug Nickel](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/plug-nickel.md) (Collingwood · Good). Before ONA opened its own Melbourne café, this tiny Collingwood spot was one of the few places to drink the Canberra roaster's beans, and it still pours them. Broadsheet calls it one of the city's most innovative coffee spots: alongside long blacks there is batch brew, càscara, cold brew and bottled lattes to take away. ONA lists it among its stockists, open every day for breakfast and lunch. 6. [Ageyo Coffee](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/ageyo-coffee.md) (Collingwood · Good). Ageyo is a Collingwood coffee company with roots in Ethiopia, and that culture runs through the cups and plates it serves. It roasts sustainable, traceable beans in small batches and sells them with brewing gear chosen by the team. The Easey Street café is a place to sit back or chat, open on weekdays and Saturdays, and the space can also be booked for events. ## Sources - - - [All coffee shops in Melbourne](https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne.md) --- [Good Coffee In](https://goodcoffeein.com/) · https://goodcoffeein.com/melbourne/n/collingwood
