Since 2018, Bermuda has provided the best seasonal ingredients and house made food that we possibly can to staff and students at Edith Cowan University’s Joondalup campus. Designed to cater for a largely female and health conscious student base, the grab and go and made
​to order menus evoke Mediterranean island vibes, with house made vegan falafel, yiros made with a traditional spit, loaded fries, burgers, sandwiches, salads and more.

Corner Café is open seven days a week in the busy central library at Deakin University’s Burwood campus, from early morning until late
​at night.
​
All food is designed to be grab and go, and highly trained baristas are accustomed to producing large volumes of quality coffee at a fast pace.
This campus has a high concentration of international students, so items such as matcha tea, rice paper rolls, rice bowls and roti were first introduced and trialled here before being rolled out to other stores.

NINE BARS

Nine Bars is our coffee sourcing, roasting and distribution company.

We regularly travel to Africa, Central and South America to source our favourite coffees. Our experienced roasters profile roast each bean based on each coffees variety and terroir in order to highlight the distinct flavours found at each origin. They then use these flavours to construct unique blends and single origin coffees for each of our brands.

Training is also provided throughout all our stores three different ways; in store training, training at the roastery with our roasters and coffee education through our online training platform, which can be accessed by all baristas at any time. By controlling everything from sourcing to roasting to brewing, we can tailor the flavour of each coffee from store to store.
​
As well as coffee, Nine Bars also has a boutique range of delicious teas, drinking chocolate and chai for the non-coffee drinkers.

​In 2018 Nine Bars was awarded the prestigious Golden Bean Award.

With two Aroma Cafes already on campus, Common Ground was designed as an alternative licensed venue that both students and staff at Curtin University’s Bentley campus feel equally comfortable socialising in.

Common Ground’s fitout is casual and modern and food is mostly made to order from a balanced menu that includes our popular vegan pad thai, extensive breakfast options, pastas, burgers, pizzas, loaded fries, bowls, burritos, beer, wine, cocktails and more.
​
Common Ground’s catering menu is our largest amongst the group, providing solutions for both formal and casual BBQs, sundowners, meetings, functions, ceremonies and more.
