The DIBS Coffee Story
DIBS isn’t something we explain. It’s something you feel — that first sip that makes you sit up a little straighter before the day gets complicated.
Every bag we roast starts the same way — with someone who couldn’t wait. That’s the whole idea behind DIBS: good coffee, claimed before anyone else gets the chance. Ethically sourced, roasted right here in Brisbane, and built for however you brew. Pick yours and call dibs.
It started in 2017, behind a coffee machine in Newstead. Brisbane had no shortage of boutique cafés, but not enough small, local roasters who could actually back them with training, quality and consistency. So we built one.
We don’t make coffee for everyone. We make it for people who have opinions about it, the way they have opinions about music — who know what they like and back it. People who aren’t chasing trends. They’re setting them, one cup at a time.
That’s the whole story. Brisbane-roasted. Loved across Australia. Yours, if you call it.
