The aroma is fantastic, and the crema and flavor are simply outstanding—it tastes as if it has just come out of the roasting vats. Locally roasted in Queensland, Merlo offers exceptional quality. Why spend $60 on subpar coffee like Vittoria Brazil Rex when you can get Merlo for just $55, delivered? When you think about it, you're already paying $44 for Vittoria at the supermarket. Merlo is, without a doubt, the best coffee out there. I wouldn’t consider buying Vittoria Brazil Rex even if they offered me money!
In my opinion, the most you should spend on Vittoria coffee is $20 per kilo. I recommend avoiding these brands altogether: Vittoria Brazil Rex, Lavazza, Toby's Estate, Aurora Coffee,...
Merlo at Fortitude Valley was the perfect spot to indulge my coffee passion. After wrapping up a meeting in Southport, I decided to stop by Market@Ferry Road to check out its sister location. I was amazed by the number of people waiting for takeaway orders, and even with two espresso machines going full blast, they struggled to keep up with the demand. I was fortunate enough to snag a small table and enjoyed a delightful treat—banana bread. To my surprise, the aroma and texture of the bread made it feel more like I was indulging in fresh bananas rather than just bread. It was a fantastic experience that perfectly complemented my favorite coffee. Thumbs up!
Buzz is a fantastic coffee roasting house located in the Ferry Road Markets complex. This place has a vibrant atmosphere, always bustling with people and energy. You can watch the roasting process happening right before your eyes, while a skilled team of baristas is busy crafting the next perfect cup of coffee. They offer a wide variety of beans for sale, in addition to delicious cups of coffee. It’s a lovely spot to enjoy your afternoon caffeine fix.

The long black coffee is rich with a bitter and nutty flavor, while the cappuccinos are wonderfully frothy. As the coffee is ground right before your eyes, you can be sure that you’re getting fresh beans every time.
The best coffee on the Gold Coast! Whenever we visit, we make it a point to stop by Merlo Coffee every day for our caffeine fix. The coffee is consistently excellent, and the service is fantastic.
I had a Long Black, Skinny Latte, and some brownies. The coffee was nice, and the brownies were fantastic—crunchy on the outside with a wonderfully soft center.
This is a fantastic cafe with friendly staff. They also offer an impressive selection of coffee-related items for anyone in need of accessories!

One of the top three coffee shops in Brisbane! I had their Iced Long Black (12 oz) and an Iced Latte with oat milk (8 oz).
You'll receive free coffee when you buy coffee beans. The quality of the coffee is consistently excellent!
