Amelia Espresso

Launceston


Amelia is a lovely little wood-panelled coffee shop on the lower leg of George St, keeping strict Monday to Friday business hours (when those most in need of coffee are most in need). Coffee is 100% local Ritual beans; food-wise it's cupcakes and cake slices, pastries and dedicated doughnut days.
