The Coffee Staines shopfront on Ford Street, Beechworth

Ford Street · Beechworth · Victoria

All day breakfast,
proper coffee,
and a kitchen that
takes gluten free
seriously.

A cafe in the heart of Beechworth, run by Jamie and Helen. Breakfast is on all day, the coffee is specialty, and gluten free is built into the kitchen rather than bolted on the side.

Jamie and Helen

Opened at the start of Covid, which was either brave or daft.

“We are Jamie & Helen, fondly known as teamstaines. Welcome to Coffee Staines, a business started right at the start of Covid, crazy yes, but its been an awesome ride with loads of laughs and tears, and the most beautiful friendships forged with our customers along the way.”

Helen and Jamie

Ford Street is the middle of Beechworth, and a fair few of the people who walk through the door are seeing the town for the first time. The regulars come in six mornings a week. Both get the same coffee and the same welcome.

Absolutely blown away by this place. I grabbed an iced coffee and a chicken & cheese toastie (added red onion), and everything was spot on, fresh, tasty, and honestly just hit the spot perfectly. But what really made the experience unforgettable was the owner, Jamie. The customer service was next level, so welcoming, genuine, and you can just tell they truly care about every person who walks in. It's rare to find a place where both the food AND the service are this good.
