Our story

A neighbourhood café, since 2016.

Saltbush & Co started as a small family thing. A good coffee machine, one long communal table, and a proper commitment to doing things the right way.

A decade on, we're still family-run. We roast with a local Geelong crew, bake everything in-house before the sun's up, and know most of our regulars by their coffee order.

Come in for a flat white and stay for brunch. Bring the dog. It's your local.

Why locals love us

Small things, done properly.

Locally roasted

Our house blend is roasted weekly by a small Geelong roastery. You can taste the difference.

Kind words

What our regulars say.

"Best flat white in Geelong, hands down. The staff know my order by heart and the courtyard is perfect on a Saturday morning."

"The salted caramel scroll is dangerous. I've stopped pretending I'm here for anything else. Everything on the menu is spot on."

Jack
