Spill The Beans.
Welcome to Social Espresso! We opened our doors here in Burleigh Heads back in 2015 with a simple idea: coffee is more than a daily grind; it’s a way to connect. Since then, Social Espresso has been serving the community, turning our passion for coffee into something much bigger—a place that feels like home.
We do it all, from roasting to supplying coffee beans and equipment across the Gold Coast and beyond, with partners all the way from Byron to Brisbane. Our café is a perfect snapshot of what we’re all about: a welcoming spot in Burleigh where regulars and newcomers alike gather for consistently excellent coffee and the kind of service that makes you feel like family.
We’re not just here to serve great coffee; we’re here to help other coffee spots succeed too. With wholesale options, coffee machine servicing, and staff training, we support local businesses with the knowledge and tools they need to bring high-quality coffee experiences to their own customers.
You can find our Specialty Coffee Bar and Tasting Room right here in Burleigh Heads, where anyone can explore new blends and learn what makes each cup unique. Our commitment to the community doesn’t end at the café doors either—look out for our A-Frame sign marking our café partners from Brisbane to Byron Bay.
More than just a café, Social Espresso is a space for community connection. We regularly host tastings and workshops, bringing people together over a shared love for coffee.
Laceys Lane is our newest venture, and it’s a different avenue for us. As a sister brand, Laceys Lane pays tribute to a local Gold Coast spot that’s inspired us deeply. Focused on sustainable, unique blends, Laceys Lane embodies the laid-back spirit of the coast while bringing a fresh perspective to the coffee experience. It’s another way we’re building community connections, one cup at a time.
