What a perfect find for a local cafe . Coffee brilliant , vibe cruisie and super friendly , food delicious so all of those elements and I’m one happy food addict! I had a hash with smashed peas and added a side of bacon and loved it all! The beetroot was a nice little element as I love beetroot!
Would highly recommend and certainly return !

Mother’s Day brunch with hubby, son and daughter. Love their coffee story. Every dishes we ordered are fabulous. Burrito serves with their special chili sauce, so fresh and taste so good.

Walking towards city from Coburg market a few blocks away, this cafe is on the left.
Looks very popular for the locals and full on Friday noon.
The coffee was very deep traditional strong flavour without ordering strong.
Total scores 4.5. -0.5 is my Mr expected full avocado for extra order.
We are happy to come back again.

Really yummy mushroom on toast and great coffee for a good cause. Service was friendly and helpful! Their spicy chili chutney is very very hot but addicting and definitely will be back to try more off the menu.

I really loved this place, the staff were super friendly and attentive. Initially me and my friend went to just have a cup of coffee and a chat, but ended up coming back for lunch because this place was so warm, cozy and friendly. I had the Baucau Bowl (?) which was delicious, they have a lot of vegetarian and vegan options as well.

The food and coffee doesn't get any better than this! The best breaky/brunch without doubt. The menu items are a little different, with a distinct Timorese style as the name suggests. I always pay a visit when I'm in Melbourne. Can't go past the sweet and sour eggs and a large flat white.

Lovely lovely lovey.
You know the menu is good when it takes you longer than the allocated time the waiter gives you to decide. I wasn’t even fussed when they told me the special I wanted was all out because I had about 5 other choices ready to go. Almost everything on this menu is veg friendly but has something for just about everyone.
The food was delicious and presented in a very humble way. The highlights were the eggs which were cooked perfectly down to the absolute second, the red pepper relish and the spicy grilled eggplant.
The coffee was very good too along with the beetroot latte that had a very subtle and present flavour.
The only thing that I could fault them on would have to be the wait staff who while most very friendly and relaxed, there were some members that we found to have a slightly stand offish demeanour which is not really what you want at a cafe. Despite that, the quality of the food and coffee along with the enticing menu will definitely see me coming back for more.

Boutique coffee beans, exotic ...

On the Latte alone .... this place is a gem for showcasing exotic East Timor or Timor Leste or Timor Timur coffee beans.

Great work guys ... JT-10/02/2018.

Perfect little local cafe, cozy space, friendly staff and nourishing food.
Tried the Buddha Bowl today, it was delicious, full of flavoursome veggies and goodness. Paired with a coconut hot chocolate I was one happy customer. The lovely lady at the counter then bought over a free vegan slice for me to try, how sweet and the slice was also yummy! I don't drink coffee but hubby said his coffee was excellent.

Wild Timor serves ethical, fair trade, organically sourced coffee that is brewed to utter perfection by fine baristas. I popped in for a quick takeaway long black on a Saturday morning and was greeted at the counter by friendly enthusiastic staff. The cafe was very busy and the food looked delicious, so as I was waiting for my brew i glanced at the mouthwatering menu. I barely got to the end of the menu when my coffee was placed in my hot little hands. The coffee was utterly divine, lighting up my plate with acidic nutty palatable flavours leaving a pleasant tartness at the back of ones throat. 

It safe to say I will certainly have to return to this cute little cafe to try some items off there menu, but the amazing quality of coffee is enough of an incentive to return.

I agree with most comments that the coffee has been enjoyable on my visits. The menu is full of options that entice me. I've only tasted a couple of things and they hit the spot.

I love what the cafe is doing socially re Timor, however I disagree with other comments on one point - I don't find the staff welcoming. They may be smiling and attentive but not friendly or welcoming. The barista is totally bossy. I walked in and was bossed and directed where to sit. And I've sat here and listened to her do the same from behind the coffee machine to other customers. Makes me feel uncomfortable and that customers are not valued. I won't be back too often at that rate.

Sweet ambience serving in-your-face long blacks! Créma with an abundant and humid jungle-kick collapsing into a smooth and reviving undertone. GF menu options, catering for many dietary requirements. Good, simple, wholesome food. Decor is slightly provincial, minimalistic and relaxed. Prams welcome. A real Gem in the slightly industrial section Sydney Road.

Today I met up with a work colleague and she said she will take me somewhere nice to lunch. Knowing I have high expectations, she knew I am super picky. She told me about a local cafe that's her local hangout and boy was I glad that she took me.

Wild Timor has one of the best coffees around - the blend smooth and strong. I went on my friend's recommendation of one of the best burgers around - the pulled pork and I was not disappointed. The pork was full of flavour - deliciously satisfying - I could easily return just for this.

Wild Timor Coffee is one of those places you can walk by and simply miss it. The atmosphere is warm and cosy. The service attentive and friendly. It is a true hidden gem in Coburg - many locals know about it and the place I am told is packed on weekends.

I love what they do and how they support Timor and the programs and projects for local communities. It is definitely a place that I would be more than happy to return to.

I've driven past this place many times and finally ventured down to get a coffee, and was fairly satisfied. The coffee (skinny cappuccino) was great, and it was value for money. The service was friendly and most importantly quick. The interior is very different and makes you feel like you've walked into a complete different place from that of Sydney Road. Will definitely keep this place in mind for a future breakfast visit.

This is one cool little joint. Awesome coffee - I buy their beans to take home as well - a strong, rounded and full flavoured brew, not too acidic, love it. Will try to eat here one day at which point I'll update this review. Big ups.

This place is such an unassuming little cafe! I've been 4 times already and the food is fantastic! Many veg options, great coffee and customer service with a smile! My favvvv thus far is the halloumi burger, seriously ive had many a hamburger and for a vegetarian burger it packed more flavour then some hamburgers ive had!

Really bold, strong creamy coffee. Great grub. Waitress could of smiled more but you get that on the big jobs. The food was fresh and a great menu for the health conscious but I went the Breakfast burger and my son the  Halloumi burger and it didn't touch the sides.  The cafe invests the money back into Timor for projects like bringing water to the community. I left a tip and felt good.

Had a fantastic brunch here today. The Timorese Sweet & Sour egg with chorizo was absolutely delicious. The Timorese chilli sauce and rocquette pesto really added the bang to the dish. My friend said the Eggs Benedict was perfect. The coffee was strong and very good. Will definitely be back for more.

Wild Timor donated a heap of coffee to our school fete. They were really helpful with ordering is some extra equipment for the day. We went along to pick up the items and decided to stay for lunch. As the waitress was taking our order my friend and I laughed that we were going to share a veggie burger and a halloumi burger. Imagine how happy we were when our order came out not only pre cut but half of each burger on each plate. It's a little thing but it made us so happy! Well played. The halloumi buger is awesome too. So much so I may have gone back the next day for another!

Interesting coffee menu and friendly, helpful staff. If you need any more proof that coburg is becoming north brunswick, check this place out. just up from that other outpost of the comfortably hip, the post office hotel, i've been here twice and liked it both times.

chilled vibe, excellent service and an interesting range of coffees. also, a good place to read.

Stumbled upon it and. I love the atmosphere, chilled out vibe, friendly guys behind the counter and their coffee. It is a well prepared strong coffee, perfect for me as this is the way I like it. If you like smooth coffee order a weak one. Patrons of all ages come and go, something that is always a good sign.

Family & friends have been telling me to go for ages so I finally did & it did not disappoint. My latte, haloumi burger & Portuguese tart were amazing. Being so close to home, I'll be going a lot more. I recommend the Portuguese tart to anyone. I've been to Portugal & this is just as good as the ones I ate there.

Awesome Coffee!. Probably been to this wild Timor coffee 10 times. Coffee is high quality. You can imagine it really does come straight from the jungle! Staff are fantastic and it is a great atmosphere. Couldn't believe the crowd the other day when I walked in! Seems all the other locals in coburg are becoming fans as well! Going to try the holoumi burger next time I'm there.

Coffee with a conscience. Funky little place with great ethical coffee from Timor Leste.
These guys are only new to the cafe game but already they are running a pretty tight ship.
Cheap prices and a delicious, but limited menu. Would love to see these guys expand their menu to include breakfast options.
Will definitely return.

Located at 282 Sydney Road in Coburg, the moment you see the store, you knew you were in for something special. And once you stepped in, that’s when the magic really happens. Surrounded by all the photos of the ways this endeavour gives back, along with the way the cafe is set up, just oozes charm and welcome. Having a chat to one of the founders Shannon French, you could see that these men really wanted to give back to the Timorese people. The same people who, after having nothing, suffering from the fallout of war and still managing to share with our patrolling Aussies the coffee they have, is something left to be admired. And ultimately

Wild Timor Coffee was established by four ex-soldiers who were part of the peace-keeping mission in East Timor in 2012. While they were there they discovered that the coffee grown by the locals was being traded unfairly by middlemen taking a huge cut of the profits. The soldiers set up Wild Timor Coffee Co. and raised enough money to begin trading the coffee to Australia and paying the farmers a fair and equitable price for their product. So now you and I can enjoy the incredibly fresh and powerful Timorese coffee along with traditional flavours of the region like P

Wild Timor Coffee is a welcome addition to the area, judging by how busy it was on a cold Monday morning. The small-ish interior is nicely decorated with stripped-back  brick   and  wooden shelves, giving it a cozy and welcoming feel, and staff are friendly. The coffee was excellent. I had muesli, which came in a jar with flavoursome thinly sliced strawberries, yogurt and an interestingly textured mix of seeds and grains drizzled with honey. D had the halloumi burger which packed a  spicy  punch.

One of Coburg's absolute gems. A great friendly crew pumping out their own delicious blend of coffee, coupled with great food and a great local vibe. The bacon and egg burger is an absolute belter. Get around it.

Wild Timor coffee has a large selection of menu items and plenty of cold brew available. Make sure to get in early as this place was pumping when I got there. The mushroom eggs Benny was actually really good, the mushrooms where cooked perfectly and where generous. The choice of bread for the Benny was great and crunchy and didn't really get too soggy. Will definately visit again 😁
