Aunty Peg's

Fitzroy, Collingwood & Abbotsford


For a peek behind the scenes at Proud Mary – producer of some of the city's best coffee – swing by Aunty Peg's roasting house. The warehouse shows off the production side and hosts workshops and barista boot camps; it also has a tasting bar (black coffee only) with a one-on-one barista experience.

Free cuppings are held 10.30am Saturday. Coffee merchandise and Proud Mary beans for sale, too.
