Located in a gorgeous, revamped 1890s wool store on Ryrie Street, Gary’s roasting HQ and coffee window are open all week, closing over weekends.

If you’re in Geelong’s CBD, it’s the perfect spot for a fresh cup. But it’s not just about the coffee—Gary’s space is also available for private events, with the Unearth Collective hospitality team running the show, making the venue perfect for any occasion.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get better, Gary is partnering with the iconic Avalon International Airshow. Yes, you heard that right. They’re serving up their signature blend to fuel one of Australia’s biggest aviation events, making sure attendees get the best coffee while taking in the thrills of the airshow.

“We’re beyond excited to introduce Gary to Geelong and couldn’t have asked for a better launch partner than the Avalon International Airshow,” said Matthew White, Founder of Gary.

“We built Gary on the idea that great coffee doesn’t have to be complicated. There are so many specialty roasters trying to outdo each other, but we just want to make it simple, good coffee, done right.”

And that’s exactly what Gary is all about. Whether you’re swinging by the café window in Geelong or grabbing a cup at Avalon, Gary is about making coffee easy—and delicious. No complicated tasting notes or fancy methods here. Just good coffee, made right.

“We love coffee, but we also love keeping it real,” added White. “We roast fresh every day, and we’re here to make sure you get a great coffee without the overcomplication.”

So if you’re in the area, stop by and try Gary. Simple, smooth, and totally no-nonsense—just how coffee should be.
