About De Groot Coffee Co

Tucked into the back sheds off Hill Street, De Groot Coffee Co sets the coast's caffeine standard with beans roasted right beside the counter. No cooked brunch distractions—just fresh roasts, beans to take home, and shaded benches where companion dogs lounge under the trees. Traveling regulars measure every regional coffee stop against this setup, pairing an espresso with a flaky chocolate croissant or a classic Kingston bikkie.

  • On-Site Roastery: Bags of freshly roasted single-origin and house blends available straight from the working roastery floor.
  • Dog-Friendly Yard: Generous shaded outdoor tables nestled among trees where four-legged companions are always welcome.
  • Bakery & Bikkies: Focused selection of baked treats, from fresh chocolate croissants to traditional Australian Kingston biscuits.

  • In-House Roasting & Extraction Mastery

    De Groot roasts their own beans directly on-site, serving distinct flavor profiles from smooth to bold, robust roasts that elevate the regional coffee standard.

    They roast their own beans. The beans were bold, strong and delicious with that roasted flavour you hope for.

  • Take-Home Beans with Roaster Guidance

    Customers can consult directly with knowledgeable roastery staff to pick single-origin beans and blends suited to their home French press or pour-over setups.

    I came in to purchase coffee beans. I found the two staff members helpful friendly and generous in their time answering questions I put forward to them to help inform me which bean to purchase.

    The relaxed outdoor and indoor spaces are intentionally dog-friendly, welcoming pets as part of the daily morning routine.

    Thankyou for being such a great space for fur babies to be included. Lovely vibe.

    Super friendly and always top coffee. Love that it’s super dog friendly and the Kingston biscuits are delicious.

  • Tucked-Away Industrial Shed Destination

    Located away from the congested coastal main street, the venue occupies a distinctive industrial shed space with a relaxed, tucked-away character.

    Tucked away in the sheds at the back of Hill st, it's Port Elliot's best kept secret.

  • Convenient Transit Stop for Coastal Travelers

    Positioned near key Fleurieu Peninsula travel routes and ferry links, it offers travelers an uncompromising espresso stop on their journey.

    Stopped for some takeaway coffee after getting off the ferry from KI and the reviews were on point about how good the coffee is!
