Our Story

A neighbourhood gem worth discovering

Yilufa Coffee Co is a cosy, welcoming specialty café on King Street, steps from Flagstaff Gardens. We pour our heart into every beverage — from a textbook flat white to our celebrated iced strawberry matcha — and pair them with a curated pastry cabinet that changes with the seasons.

Whether you're popping in before the tram, settling in for a meeting, or grabbing something for a walk through the park, you'll find skilled baristas, genuinely friendly service, and a space that feels like it's yours.
