About Vintage Grind

Perched above the retail floor at Australia Fair, Vintage Grind trades shopping mall chaos for water views and serious coffee. Regulars head upstairs specifically for espresso pulled from Silipo’s bold Nero blend, paired with stacks of pancakes or a toasted sandwich. It is an unhurried perch overlooking the Broadwater—equally handy for a quick breakfast or a quiet pit stop while an EV charges downstairs. Behind the glass counter, thick slices of peanut butter cheesecake and passionfruit sponge share space with tall glasses of iced coffee topped with ice cream.

  • Broadwater Outlook: Spacious seating area set high above the mall bustle with clear views out across the Broadwater.
  • Silipo Specialty Coffee: Baristas pour the bold, smooth Nero specialty blend from local roaster Silipo.
  • Crowd-Pleasing Breakfast: Generous morning staples, from eggs Benedict to fluffy pancakes and kids' breakfast stacks.
