ME Coffee Merchants Coolum Beach

ME Coffee Merchants Coolum Beach is part of a coffee-focused café brand that began as Mr Espresso in 1998, founded by Veni Chorafitis. The business describes its approach as artisan roasting, careful espresso preparation and freshly made food, with an emphasis on friendly service and attention to detail.

The published menu covers espresso coffee, breakfast, lunch, cold drinks, juices, smoothies and milkshakes. Named options include nitro coffee, avocado smash, halloumi stack, big brekkie, ME cheeseburger, steak sandwich and several fresh juice combinations. A kids menu is also listed, with chicken nuggets and chicken schnitzel strips served with chips. The site notes that dishes can vary between stores, so local availability should be checked before visiting.

The brand’s story centres on traditional roasting and coffee expertise, with its coffee described as having caramel and chocolate notes. It also outlines community initiatives, including distributing unsold food to homeless shelters and contributing to environmental projects through ME Water sales. The menu makes the café a possible option for a quick coffee, breakfast, lunch or family stop, although the available website material focuses on the group’s Sydney locations and does not provide specific details about the Coolum Beach space, local service or current menu.
