A working roastery first, café second, Criteria Coffee sits in a bright Port Melbourne warehouse where independent baristas come to learn the roasting side of the craft. The public-facing espresso bar is almost incidental to the operation, which makes the coffee feel more considered than performative. Craig Simon, a three-time Australian Barista Champion, runs the show, so the seasonal filter and espresso options are taken seriously by people who have trophies to prove it.
