Red Berry Espresso Coffee Roastery

Glenside? What’s in Glenside? Most Adelaideans equate the suburb with the local psychiatric hospital and nothing more. But Red Berry Espresso is here too, a sharp-looking bean roastery where coffee addicts fend off the madness of withdrawal. The design is mod-industrial: polished concrete, industrial globes, floor-to-ceiling glass… hard surfaces reverberating with conversation and coffee-grinder whirr. The clatter of bicycle cleats elevates the hubbub, as lycra-clad locals waddle in for a caffeine fix and some carrot cake. Repaying the cyclists’ patronage, Red Berry also offer an inner-tube replacement service (drop one for repair, grab one to go). Food is a secondary concern but decent nonetheless: cakes, muffins, baguettes and quiches.
