At The Coffee Cart Elsdon, coffee isn’t just a drink—it’s an experience. Owner Kaya Peace has partnered with Mojo Wellington to create their signature blend, The Injection, a carefully crafted mix of organic, fair-trade single-origin beans from Peru, Papua New Guinea, and Mexico. The result? A velvety body, delicate acidity, and aromatic spice, with rich notes of dark chocolate, cloves, nutmeg, and a smooth cocoa finish. With 20 years of experience, Kaya knows that consistency is key, ensuring every cup is made to perfection.
From Coffee Cart to Community Staple
Fifteen years ago, The Coffee Cart Elsdon began as a small coffee cart on Prosser Street, serving up great coffee to locals. Six years ago, Kaya took over, bringing a fresh passion for coffee and connection. Then, four years ago, the cart evolved into its iconic black shipping container, allowing for an expanded menu while staying true to its roots—quality coffee and a welcoming atmosphere.
Fan Favourites: Coffee & Legendary Breakfasts
Coffee is the star of the show—whether it’s a flat white, long black, macchiato, or mocha, customers keep coming back for the consistency and quality. But it’s not just about the coffee. Their bacon and egg English muffin with a hash brown and BBQ sauce is a best-seller, with hundreds flying out the door each week. Other customer favourites include cheese scones, almond slices, and their newest addition, southern cheese rolls, which are quickly becoming a must-try.
Seasonal Drinks & Special Offerings
Originally a Valentine’s Day special, the strawberry matcha was such a hit that it’s now a permanent menu item. They also offer milkshakes and smoothies, perfect for a refreshing treat.
More Than Coffee—A Community Hub
For Kaya, it’s about more than just making coffee—it’s about creating a space where people feel at home. “There’s an undeniable energy here,” she says. Whether it’s a quick stop for a caffeine fix or a chat with familiar faces, The Coffee Cart Elsdon is a place where customers feel seen, heard, and part of something special.
