If you're ever in Lilydale, a visit to Your Local Roaster is an absolute must. Nestled at 4/182 Main St, this charming café not only serves an array of mouthwatering coffee but also provides a delightful atmosphere that keeps customers coming back for more.

Your Local Roaster prides itself on its dedication to quality and community. As one customer, Maha Mahadevan, expressed, "Coffee & muffin was great! Friendly staff & service! Freshly brewed coffee beans of our choice!" Here, every cup of coffee is a celebration, brewed from locally sourced beans roasted right down the road at the owner’s family home. This personal touch adds a layer of authenticity and connection that many coffee aficionados crave.

The café's menu boasts delectable options that cater to diverse tastes. The toasties are a popular choice, perfect for a satisfying and quick bite, despite some customers noting that prices can be on the higher side—"Nice coffee, tasty toasties, but $14 for a toastie is quite steep," one customer remarked. However, the quality and flavor delivered often make it worth the splurge!

For those who prefer something lighter, the avocado on toast comes highly recommended—fresh, comforting, and beautifully plated. Pair it with a rich hot chocolate or a lovingly crafted latte, and you've got a winning combination! Miss Sage Sugar's review highlights, "I ordered a latte ($4.30) made with Yarra Coffee, which was delicious." The café's offerings are complemented by an inviting décor— живые растения adorn every table, infusing the space with vitality and a touch of nature.

The ambiance at Your Local Roaster is another key reason to visit. It feels both cozy and vibrant, reminiscent of an American coffee shop, as Kimberly Snyder enthusiastically pointed out. You’ll find a friendly smile from the staff, making each visit feel personal and warm. It's a place where you can unwind with a good book or dive into conversation with friends while enjoying the rich aromas of freshly brewed coffee.

If you find yourself in the area, don’t miss out on the uniquely homey feel of Your Local Roaster. With its commitment to quality coffee, scrumptious bites, and a welcoming atmosphere, this café effortlessly captures the essence of community and craftsmanship.

Coffee & muffin was great ! Friendly staff & service! Freshly brewed coffee beans of our choice! I love all the coffee gadgets! More than that, i was very impressed with LIVE PLANTS on every table and in the cafe. Thanks to Kelly & others who made the coffee, service with a smile will recommend this cafe !

A quality coffee shop with truly locally roasted coffee (roasted just at the owner’s parents’ house down the road, I was told). The house blend wasn’t my favorite, maybe a tad dark for my taste, but still appreciated the quality cuppa during my short visit to the area. Felt just like an American coffee shop.

Nice coffee, tasty toasties, but $14 for a toastie is quite steep. The staff were amazing and I would go back just because of the service.

Stopped in for a quick bite on our way back from Healesville since it was too wet to go to the Sanctuary. Service was really good and the atmosphere was really relaxed. It was a bit cold in there but besides that all good. I just got the avo on toast, which came with a whole avocado, and a hot chocolate while my partner had a toastie and coffee. Everything was pretty delicious and filling, mine was a decent price but I think the toastie was slightly overpriced. Would definitely be back though if we were on that side of the city.

I stopped by for a coffee at Your Local Roaster in Lilydale. I ordered a latte ($4.30) made with Yarra Coffee, which was delicious. The menu consists of some yummy sounding toasties that are very reasonably priced, as well as avocado on toast. There are also some slices and muffins to go with your coffee.

Lovely place, pretty good food. Coffee is yummy dark roast. I really enjoyed the tea here too. Got a lot of work done here and its nice and quiet unlike most cafes in lilydale. Avo on toast was really nice, fresh lemon. I do recommend a more flavoured feta though still very yum. Thank you :)
