“ Should you take a detour to come here...yes. Should you take a massive detour to come here....yes! If you're into coffee, you'll make your pilgrimage to Vims and sample some amazing coffee (the Sudan Rume pour over is simply divine) I will be stopping on my way back. ”
“ Pat is super passionate about making Geelong known for great coffee. He is the leading the way for the best espresso and filter coffee in not just Geelong but Victoria ”
“ The new neighbourhood local with the friendliest owner. Coffee is exceptional, delicious food options available, and the hole in the wall style of the cafe is adorable! Highly recommend if you’re in the area or taking the train at South Geelong! ”
“ I found this place by googling “best breakfast near me” on my walk to work. So glad I did - coffee is glorious, service brightened my day, and I had the best egg and mayo sandwich of my life. An absolute gem - definitely will be back! ”
“ Possibly the coolest place on the planet. It’s like a portal to the awesome dimension opened up, a coffee shop fell out, and our boring mortal plane is all the better for it. Pat (the owner) knows everyone by name and has the superhuman ability to make us all feel comfortable and seen- all on top of doing the actual work of running the business. Alannah is kindness personified. Makes an excellent coffee, and is always willing to have a chat. My kids talk about her on the days we don’t go have a coffee, so if that’s not the highest praise, I don’t know what is. Angie and Emily are new to the team, but seeing as how only the coolest cats work at Vim, obviously they are the coolest of cool. If you’re reading this review, you’re probably wondering what the coffee is like. The short answer? It’s fantastic. The longer answer I can’t give you- you’ll just have to come to Vim for yourself and let the passionate people behind the counter speak for themselves. (My only gripe is that they let Luke move to the UK.) ”
“ A tiny little coffee bar that looks as good, or better, than it does in its Google review pictures ! Searching for a good coffee is always a challenge. The Google rating for Vim did not disappoint!! Our flat white and hot chocolate , both ordered with full cream milk, were creamy and flavoursome. Not too hot, not too cold - just right. The only challenge we encountered was drinking out of the paper lids - a little "different" to the usual plastic lids, I'd suggest just removing the lid! ... Service was also a little slow, took about 5 minutes for our coffees - with only a couple of people ahead of us. Worth the wait ⏰ ”
“ Such a special spot with delicious coffee and super friendly staff. Definitely my favourite coffee spot in all of Geelong. They are so dedicated and passionate about serving amazing coffee! Love coming here for my caffeine fix and a chat! ”
“ The coffee and snacks were really good! Patrick was amazing — his attitude and the way he treated us was excellent. He even offered free milk for my nephew, which was such a kind gesture. The shop, the atmosphere — everything was just awesome. Highly recommended! ”
