Leible occupies a compact ground-floor bar at 89 York Street in the CBD. A luminous ceiling sits above the slim counter; most of the room is standing space, with a few tables and stools.
Coffee
Founder and head roaster Yama Kim was Australia's first World Cup Tasters champion. Leible roasts blends, single origins and decaf, with retail beans and brewing equipment available alongside the drinks.
The York Street bar serves espresso, batch brew and hand-brewed filter. Ask about the current selection before choosing a method.
Filter
The hand-brew menu gives you a choice beyond the house espresso. Check the origin, processing and price of the available coffees; the range changes, so a previous recommendation may no longer be on the bar.
Pastry
Bagels and pastries provide a light meal alongside coffee. Seating is limited, so this is easier to plan as a short stop than a long breakfast.
Service & Room
The narrow counter and few stools keep you close to the preparation area. Allow extra time for a hand brew, or choose batch brew when you need to move on.
Why Filter Notes shortlisted Leible Coffee
Choose York Street for house-roasted coffee, several brewing methods and retail beans in the CBD. The small room suits a brief pause; check individual branch details before visiting elsewhere in the Leible network.
