Our Cafe Family

Our partners in exceptional coffee experiences.

While a large part of our world is sourcing and roasting delicious coffees, an equally important focus is on developing great relationships with cafes owners around Australia who share our vision of accessible, excellent coffee experiences. These partnerships come in all shapes and sizes, but this uniting goal to craft our coffee with care and to share it generously unites us.

The family of cafes we now work with warms our heart – some of them are just starting on their specialty coffee journey, while others have many miles under their boots and are part of shaping how we, and the world, think about this tasty brew. Put a face to a name and hear why they’ve chosen to partner with us.

Hemingway by Mo

158 St Georges Tce, Perth, WA

In their latest venue touted ‘a love letter to coffee,’ Hemingway is the Barrett families expression of their appreciation for all the hard work and decision making made from origin to cup. From humble hospitality beginnings back in 2013 with Mo Espresso, they showcase that expression and love with the ultimate brewing experience of an elegent undercounter modbar espresso system from La Marzocco and theatrical Poursteady brewer. If coffee making is art, then Hemingway is the Art Gallery.

“We did our research. Looking for the best coffee provider available to us, be it within Western Australia, or elsewhere. Every experience we had at venues supplied by Five Senses Coffee was outstanding. They were also the provider of our favourite coffee machine in the world; the Synesso. Then, when we met with the Five Senses team, we were just so impressed by their enthusiasm for coffee. The training, the experience, and our shared values was exactly what we were looking for.”
