The Truth Behind Canberra Coffee Shops explores the experiences and perspective of Dillon McElroy, a student barista working at the University of Canberra. Through a thorough and engaging conversation with Dillon, we discuss why Canberra ritualises coffee, and how that ritualisation impacts independent businesses. Dillon’s unique perspective differentiates cafes from chain coffee shops, and explores the unique experience of working at a university espresso bar. Filled with humour, pure authenticity, and playful competition, listen as we uncover the ‘dirty beans’ of Canberra’s coffee culture.
