Who is Project 281 Coffee Roasters?

Project 281's in-house roaster is multi-award-winning and female-led. It's run by champion Anne Cooper, who brings more than 30 years of experience. Anne has trained and roasted coffee for notable names. Her work centres on sourcing the best beans and roasting them with precision. Behind the roastery is a plant-filled café in Brunswick, Melbourne, open since 2018. The room runs a seasonal menu, offers full table service, and welcomes dogs. This suits anyone who wants specialty coffee with a proven roaster behind it. If you care who roasted your beans, Project 281 gives you a clear answer.
