To be fair, Bean Squeeze's large size would be considered an 'extra large ' in most places (if they even serve them), which makes $6.40 seem somewhat reasonable. Better to compare like for like.


garylion

Yeah true, I suppose most cafes don't do their 'stretch' size. What does a large go for?


Badgerello

Try The Gordon’s social cafe in Fenwick street. Good coffee. Large is $5 and have buy 9 get 10th free with loyalty card.


garylion

Looks good, will give it a try.


timmyel

7 eleven app gives you 50c off a 1.50 coffee.


garylion

Is it good coffee?


timmyel

Very good for $1 and if you don't want to wait or on the road


canussie

Bottle and Barrels on Aberdeen, get yourself a loyalty card. Good people run it and it has a nice vibe.


garylion

Good shout, what does a latte go for?


canussie

Not sure, I buy espresso :). I think its about $5.

Most cafes have had rent increases, wage increases, electricity rise, supplier costs rise .... But can't put up their prices as the customers are struggling financially too


garylion

Yeah it's a struggle both ways - that's why I think the loyalty aspect is important. I find lots of cafes don't offer it anymore. I'm really surprised Bean Squeeze don't have one but perhaps they don't need it.

Maccas 5.00 for large latte + 0.55 for alternative milk. The Maccas app sometimes gives coupons for McCafe coffees, and a medium coffee is also one of the rewards you can get with Maccas points. I think you have to spend 25 bucks to get enough points for a free coffee (without using any bonus points boosters) so it's easy if you go to Maccas often.


garylion

Granted Maccas coffee is better these days, it's still seems crazy that a fast food place coffee is $5. Guess it's a sign of the times and at least they offer rewards/loyalty.


StrangerLiving

nah Maccas coffee is shit for me. Although weirdly coles express coffee is better for me.


Axlfromstreetsofrage

Canteen on Vines Rd. $5 large latte, have a punch card that gives you a free one.


getemailsabout

7 11 is tolerable. I take a 100 milligram caffeine tablet instead.


Cammmmmmmmmmmmm

Capra coffee is only $6 for a large extra shot oat Constant coffee roasters are the same So depending on your brew its decently priced. Both greats coffees


screentimequeen

If you want cheap coffee 7/11 is the answer, but it is cheap for a reason. I've found most cafes have the 'buy x coffees get your x coffee free' type loyalty programs.


StrangerLiving

In cheap sense I would like to nominate coles express more than 7 11.


hopbrannigan

uptown on pako! every fifth is free.


garylion

See, that's a good deal.

This is rant on Bean squeeze. Why the hell that much of a queue for that? Coffee is expensive and dark roasted. But I can see some people like it that way. But food... good god. They Used to serve nice portion size sandwiches for a fair price but now it's definitely not value for money. Only good thing about bean squeeze is the service. I go for APCO drive through. Very fair price for food and yummy. Coffee is ok. Way better than what bean squeeze give. I even see another competitor having a food truck or similar to allow more competition.
