About this space

Our spacious venue located in Brunswick is ideal for those looking for an atmosphere of warmth and simplicity. The venue was transformed from Toby’s Estate Coffee warehouse and roastery into what is now the Brunswick Foodstore café. Having done little to alter the building, the industrial characteristics of the former warehouse, such as the stunning hardwood floors, remain.

Brunswick Foodstore offers the perfect venue for a relaxed event. The space offers flexibility for décor, allowing you to put your personality and style into your function.
We’re excited to be a part of your next celebration.

Our venue provides a fully stocked bar with competitive bar prices and packages as well as bar staff, the option of exceptional cocktail and sitdown food packages, an extensive storage facility and much much more.
