Your morning coffee or dinnertime indulgence can make a difference to those doing it tough. Your buying habits can also support local and organic producers and ethical farming practices.
Here’s our pick of the eateries actively supporting worthy causes.
ki-Jime
The latest from uber chef Shannon Bennett is all about seafood, which is sustainably caught in Australian waters. Iki-Jime is named for the traditional and ethical Japanese method of harvesting fish used by Bennett’s supplier.
Calia
A unique restaurant and retail space, Calia is equal parts international star power and local, down-to-earth goodness. The food is sustainable and ethically sourced – sometimes from overseas, but mostly from hands-on Australian producers.
Higher Ground
Whether it’s for solo coffee, tasty tête-à-têtes or feasts with friends, this innovative three-story foodie favorite has the perfect space for you.
Kinfolk
Kinfolk Cafe is managed by volunteers and their profits are redistributed to partner charities. You can choose which project you’d like to support by dropping a coffee bean into your preferred project jar.
Good 2 Go
Just as its name implies, Good 2 Go is a coffee shop and social enterprise that supports young people by offering real work experience, skill-building opportunities and support to overcome barriers.
