    Thank you every one for your kind words. We are trying very hard to create a place where baristas, roasters and enthusiasts can meet, exchange ideas and just simply hangout. We will be starting our summer cupping series, which runs every Wednesday and Saturday and is free of charge. Keep you eyes posted on CS for the commencement date and coffees that we will be showcasing.

    On the opening day I had to work as well, and the best two coffees i had all day were from you guys. I couldnt top it all day.. DOH!!

    I am stoked that you have bought yourselves a simonelli for braistas to have a crack on and practice for the up and comming comp, and are willing to help and answer any questions no matter how silly they may seem...... e.g my questions.

    I visited Veneziano yesterday and found the staff to be fantastic - very helpful and welcoming. The only negative was that it was quite hard to find a carpark, as its a very busy area in the middle of the day with so many other businesss nearby. Ill be going back for sure.

    Heyya!

    Dropped by the other day, wow it is nice there! The staff are soooo friendly and the coffee is great too Ill have to find a better way of getting there other than walking from uni, that was a major hike.... By the way! The beans were fantastic (Estate). I had every intention of letting them rest for a few days, but I couldnt resist! The pours were fantastic! Such rich red earthy colours... Two words, yum yum! Ill be sure to come back as soon as I run out of beans

    P.s My attempt at latte art, not the best but sure tasted great!

    Sorry for the late post
    But here are a couple of pictures I took of the Opening Day

    Shop busy and staff working happy but hard behind the Orange/Red La Marzocco  FB/80



    In a room next to the shop proper. A picture of the new Syncro 3 Group Espresso Machine



    PS
    While at Veneziano Bris, I viewed an area set aside in the corner with a sign
    "Roast your own beans here"
    Later speaking with Peter he informed me that yes he is installing a German make coffee roaster soon. So coffee lovers can roast green beans for home use and sample a coffee or 2 while waiting

    Peter can post more info on this when he has a bit more time

    Hey AngerManagement

    please tell your daughter that I am frequent visitor to her place of work and that I will ordering a mocha frappe...  ;D

    Peter
    I dropped in today at Midday ... Quite neat and larger than I expected.. So how are the TEETH ;D

    As it became obvious that I and the other visitor were SNOBS, one of the staff offered to show us around... Many thanks as it added to our break and added a little something extra...

    The other Snob has a sweet tooth: Thus it was great to see him drink a Latte coffee and not add sugar

    For myself, I can only state that it was a little cooler than I expected (FW) and can only assume that the cup may not have been heated enough... As compared to the glass that the latte came in.

    All in all a great place to visit, have a chat and a coffee. Who knows, maybe I will even buy some beans next time :

    Take care and trust the man with the big pliers did not hurt you too much :-?

    Hi All...

    My wife made it in on Sunday as my Daughter was doing an exam just up the road... ( I was on Morton Island, but that is another story.. See up and coming Presso post).

    I only just found out, as my wife and daughter were talking about this GREAT coffee place that had just opened at West End.. Needless to say as soon as I mentioned the name Veneziano... They both exclaimed that was the one...

    I think my wife ended up making 3 trips and they both stated the layout and decor was great.. She even said it was rather busy at around midday... They also commented on teh very reasonable prices, to go along with a great product..

    Great work to all concerned..

    PS. My daughter was happy with the frappe but reckons she makes a better one... I guess a she might just have to step up to the mark, when some one from Veneziano drops into the place she works at in Wooloowin.

    BIG  [smiley=thumbup.gif] and   from me too Peter,

    The place has a fabulous vibe too it already and thats without the roaster hummin out back. Penny gets a [smiley=thumbup.gif] [smiley=thumbup.gif] for the decor etc.

    Was nice being first in Saturday morning and getting a cheer from the gang. Made us feel kinda special

    My Estate Blend Flat white was smooth and rich and held on to both to the bottom of the cup !

    Am looking forward to trying a double-ristretto latte... tomorrow perhaps !

    Cheers

    Re: Veneziano Brisbane Roastery

    A quick thanks to Peter & his team for Saturday morning.

    Open arms, espresso gratis, 3 Mazzers on the counter with differing blends, the LM pumpin, & friendly prompt service set the calm, casual tone of the morning.

    Huge compliments for the dedicated kids nook, with drawing stuff to occupy them while mum & dad relaxed & enjoyed their selected blend.

    My double-ristretto long black was their choice Estate Blend, & was pleasantly balanced in acidity & earthy/cocoa after-tones, after I let it cool for a while.

    Converting a plain 2 storey warehouse into an ambient haven to enjoy a coffee - a bloody challenge ... Venezianios come through with the ambient design & layout for sure.

    Crank up that roaster Pete, & thanks again for your hospitality

    Tony

    Hey Peter,

    Took a sneaky peak this morning on my way past (the door was open) and the place looks fabulous. Great fitout and Im already looking forward to trying the coffee tomorrow. Any chance youd consider opening an hour earlier during the week to catch some of the passing hoards of cyclists (me included) ?

    See you there tomorrow and good luck
    dave
