Tradition Meets Passion

Gigante Coffee has been a cornerstone of Melbourne's coffee culture for over 50 years, starting from humble beginnings as the city's first café roastery in Cheltenham. Founded by Italian immigrants, the business has been passed down through three generations of passionate coffee roasters, each dedicated to perfecting the art of roasting. With a deep respect for tradition and an unwavering commitment to quality, Gigante Coffee has grown from a small family operation into a beloved name among coffee lovers, blending time-honored techniques with modern innovations.

All of Gigante’s coffee is carefully profiled and roasted on a vintage Probat roaster from the 1960s, preserving the craftsmanship and precision that has defined their approach for decades. This classic machine, with its rich history, plays a key role in unlocking the full potential of every bean, ensuring a perfect roast that highlights the unique flavors and aromas. Through the years, their dedication to exceptional flavor and craftsmanship has made them a trusted name in Melbourne’s coffee scene, continuing to provide coffee enthusiasts with the finest, freshly roasted beans.
