Wholesale showcase: Bunker, Bessa, John Mills Himself, and Anytime Coffee (Brisbane)

It doesn’t go a month without us receiving an appreciation message or new online subscriber from the Brisbane area; they all mention how much they loved our coffee after trying it at Bunker, Bessa, Anytime, or John Mills himself.

These four venues are located near the CBD and are run by a group of coffee professionals and enthusiasts who, obviously, care about the quality of the product they put forward in this city.

For this latest wholesale showcase edit, we threw our usual questions to Marcus, director of the group.


Bunker Coffee, in Brisbane.

Bunker

Bessa Coffee.

Bessa


your name and role:
Marcus, director

your venue/vibe/offer in one sentence:
Each location is unique, just see the photos, but all are centred on a caring, friendly and professional service style with high quality coffee.

most popular food order:
Every location has the fantastic Sprout pastries delivered daily with croissants still reigning supreme. Our newest location, Anytime has a small but killer food menu. For breakfast the Wholly Crumpets with Gary’s Honey and smoked salt are a winner. For lunch the Chicken and Tarragon Sandwich is the best seller, and for good reason!

most popular coffee order:
12oz Flat White


Anytime Coffee.

John Mills Himself cafe in Brisbane.

2 things you love about working with/serving/drinking Sample:
Consistency of the blend and the variety of the omni roasts and the quality and value provided by them all. Philosophy: Our own business ethos aligns very closely with the Sample Coffee ethos, that synergy ultimately drives it all.

most played track/artist/playlist right now (at the venue):
Personally I’ve been doing a good amount of “radio based on” LEISURE

something new you learned in the last month:
I’ve been learning about LiFePO4 battery storage and solar charging systems. Reacquainting myself with all things Watts, Volts and Amps and related charging systems.
