23.01.2022 The crew is here serving up your fave brews! So grateful and happy to see the support for small business, now and always We love our Milton community @miltongreen

20.01.2022 Out of the devastation of the fires around Australia, our hearts have been lifted by the caring and generous response from so many folks. Joining businesses and... communities around the country in their fundraising efforts, on 17th Jan we supported 36 of our wonderful cafes in the Coffee For Fire Relief event and collectively we've raised over $15,994.29! We just want to say a huge THANKYOU to our cafe family and their extended customers for their efforts and support of those in need. Sending massive props to so many of our coffee industry peers who have also rallied to pitch in their own efforts. Makes us be proud to be part of this broader community. These funds have already headed towards Australian Red Cross, The Salvation Army Australia, CFA (Country Fire Authority) and NSW Rural Fire Service. Remember though, the need is not over: keep looking out for each other and lending a helping hand where you can.

17.01.2022 Waiting for the skies to break while sippin' this naturally processed Kenyan by @passportspecialty. A process that was previously illegal in Kenya & has now passed our lips. It's jummy jummy - baby talk for yum.

17.01.2022 Tomorrow, Friday 17th Jan, were donating $1 from every coffee sold. We're teaming up with @5sensescoffee in their Coffee For Fire Relief event which they have fantastically coordinated across the country. @bunkercoffee @bessacoffee @johnmillshimself are all involved.... We'll be splitting our donation across the Australian Red Cross and WIRES So drop by and grab a coffee or two or two and a 6 pack of coldies for the weekend as well !! Big thanks to @5sensescoffee for their organisation and support and for generously crediting us for the beans used.

15.01.2022 The wonderful women of @floozycoffee have yet again produced an amazing selection of coffees in celebration of International Women's Day. Here at Bessa we have 'Grace Morales' grown by Grace herself in Equador that we'll be serving on filter, and for espresso 'Carmela Aduviri', grown in Bolivia by Carmela and her son Elvis. We're proud supporters of Floozy and IWD - you can show your support to by coming and trying these delights and perhaps even buying a bag for yourself and/or a wonderful woman in your life

14.01.2022 The look of a THIEF. Staff coveting our signature jaffles is not uncommon. Jez in the background though, policing the joint

All you need apart from the coffee is: - 4 cups (200ml-250ml each and ideally the same type of cup) - 2 soup/dessert spoon... - a 1L+ Kettle We'll take it nice and easy, but if you've get yourself setup so you can see and hear the stream while accessing your cups, coffee and kettle in advance that will make it even easier. See you on the web!

10.01.2022 we skulled our flatties so fast this morn. It's 6.30am and we're going in for another . This Rwanda from @slidecoffee tastes like honeycomb w/milk (soy & maca as well), with an aniseed/cacao/lemongrass vibe drunk black . We've still got dregs of the amazinggg Timor Leste natural running through our batch brewer by @passportspecialty... We'll mourn it's loss when we see it go.

08.01.2022 Feels like spring - magpies are out, and our iced drink sales are up! These bad boiz have been iconic to Brisbane summer for 10 years & are a great way to shorten the wait time for coffee.

08.01.2022 This is how proud we are to represent QLD small batch roasters, we request our coffee injury strapping tape to match the merch.

07.01.2022 Our COVID-19 strategy: To help delay transmission, we are: - Pausing the acceptance of reusable cups - Pausing the use of dine-in cups/wares... The safety of our community is our highest priority. We have therefore decided to make these changes in order to help manage the spread of COVID-19. We are very aware that the delay of transmission is vital in ensuring our health system can cope and we will act to assist with that. We have already increased hygiene awareness and practices for staff, providing sanitiser at the counter and increasing cleaning and sanitisation of the store. But we now believe bigger changes are necessary. As the situation is changing rapidly please know that we will continue to make whatever decision is required for community safety. We are optimistic that this will be a tough but temporary situation and look forward to your continued support during this time and into the future. Can we still dine in? You are welcome, and encouraged, to please continue to dine in with us if you are not exhibiting any symptoms. Please advise us if you are dining in and we will not apply a lid. What about my reusable cup discount? Bring the band from your cup, or the cup itself, and we will continue to apply a 20c discount. We are temporarily reducing the [bunker] cup discount to 20c to offset the increase in costs. How can I pay? Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, Apple/Google/Samsung Pay, Diners Club, JCB, UnionPay and AliPay Will you be passing on the cost of card/digital payment? No. The menu price is the price. Why dont we just let everyone catch it? Depending on your sources up to 15% of people require hospitalisation and 5% require intensive care. Slowing/stopping transmission is vital to ensure our health system can cope. What about the environmental impact? As a business where being environmentally best practice is a core value this is no easy decision. For now our community safety must come first. Please place your cups and lid in the dedicated bins for composting/recycling. How long will this last? As long as it is in the public interest. Thanks for your support! We can do this!

07.01.2022 "Hey boiz let's meet at that outdoor coffee place off Coro after we whiz down the Cooth. Corey's probably gonna get one of those fancy hipster batchies ay, ha ha millennials. I'll grab us a couple'a flatties, see ya there." . . Thanks Jeff! We appreciate your leadership.

07.01.2022 Hey! We/you raised $1,418 collectively on Friday for the Bushfire Relief. Thank you to everyone who donated & for over-caffeinating yourself for a good cause. Over 60 cafes in Australia participated; thank you @5sensescoffee for the initiative. We encourage everyone to continue supporting @wireswildliferescue & @redcrossau as they will need our help when the cameras disappear! . . @johnmillshimself @bunkercoffee ... See more

04.01.2022 As restrictions lift, we've loved seeing old faces! Lincoln from Holcim said his first returning cup of Bessa coffee was like, "a warm hug from an old friend". #bettertogether

04.01.2022 There she is. The almighty Ginger Necktar. Squeezed from the necks (idk, maybe) of the ginger plant, infused with honey and lemon, bottled and shipped from Byron Bay to dirty Brisbane. Sold cold like dis or STEAMED, to warm your soul, hands & hearts.

03.01.2022 While business fluctuates due to the global health & economic changes, we will be trading within a shorter window. Many of our clientele are working from home & it is not viable to trade for a full day. We appreciate the surrounding businesses taking the virus seriously so we must also adapt. Make no mistake WE ARE OPEN. We are here for those who cant work at home. We ask that you respect the social distancing requirement when you queue for your coffee & when you sit down with mates. Thank you for your understanding, our hours will revert back to normal in the future but not at this stage. #inthistogether - Bessa

03.01.2022 Biiig thanks to all our rad coffee suppliers this year for your commitment to excellent taste, quality, and transparency. Excuse us while we chug back our Christmas presents to get us through to Christmas (we're open til 24Dec dw)
