Mecca's Alexandria café occupies a warehouse on Bourke Road, south of the CBD. High ceilings, long timber tables and patterned flooring frame a large dining area beside the roasting operation.
The former King Street café closed in August 2024. Alexandria is the branch to choose for coffee and a meal together; Mecca also has cafés on Glenmore Road and Foley Street.
Coffee
Mecca serves its House blend alongside rotating Producer Series coffees. Espresso, batch brew and pour-over offer different ways to try the range. Ask which lot is brewing that day.
Retail bags include blends, single origins and decaf, with drip bags and brewing equipment also available. Taste a coffee before choosing beans when you can.
Food
The kitchen serves breakfast and lunch, with substantial savoury dishes as well as sweet options. Check the seasonal menu before visiting; this is a full meal stop rather than just a pastry counter.
Service & Room
Long tables provide space for groups, while outdoor seating gives another option in good weather. The large dining room can be busy, particularly at weekends; choose a quieter time if conversation is the priority.
Why Filter Notes shortlisted Mecca Coffee
Alexandria brings Mecca’s roasting operation, filter coffee and a full kitchen together in one large room. Choose it for a meal and coffee, or a visit that includes buying beans.
