The ceremony for the inaugural World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops list took place on 17 February at CoffeeFest Madrid in Spain, naming Toby’s Estate in Sydney, Australia, as the world’s best venue.
Of the list, 10 coffee shops to make the top 100 were based in Australia and New Zealand. Jody Leslie, General Manager for Toby’s Estate, says the company is thrilled with the accolade.
“At Toby’s Estate, coffee is at the heart of everything we do, and I think that’s reflected in our customers’ experience. Our whole team puts in an immense amount of effort to make the best coffee possible, so we’re absolutely delighted to be awarded this incredible recognition,” she says.
The top five saw Onyx Coffee LAB in the United States place second, Gota Coffee Experts in Austria place third, Proud Mary Coffee in Australia place fourth, and Time Wendelboe in Noway place fifth.
New for 2025, The World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops is a global recognition system for which coffee shops are judged on criteria of quality of coffee, barista experience, customer service, innovation, ambience and atmosphere, sustainability practices, food and pastry quality, and consistency.
The competition voting system consists of two main components: public voting and expert evaluations. Coffee lovers from across the globe were invited to cast their votes online while a panel of specialty coffee experts, including renowned baristas, coffee roasters, and industry professionals, provided their assessments of the coffee shops.
The final scores were determined using a weighted system in which public votes accounted for 30 per cent of the final score, while expert evaluations contributed the remaining 70 per cent.
