At Pirate Coffee, our names carry stories. Inspired by our Māori heritage, blends like Tangaroa (god of the sea) and Tu Meke (“too good!”) connect our Port Stephens roastery to the waters of Aotearoa and the spirit of whānau. Led by our Kiwi head roaster Damo, we welcome you like family — a space to connect, share, and enjoy coffee with meaning. Every sip is aroha, every visit feels like home.

Wally25 is back — our seasonal roast inspired by the great humpback migration through Port Stephens. This year, it’s smoother than a whale breach and cheekier than a dad joke. Now pouring on Moonshadow and starring work by our Pirate in Residence, Colin Sheringham. Expect whales, wild coffee and a whole lotta fun. 🐋☕🏴‍☠️

We recently welcomed Year 11 students from St Philip’s Christian College to Pirate HQ for a hands-on immersion into coffee, business, and the future of work. From LEGO supply chains to startup pitch challenges, this visit was about more than beans—it was about empowering the next generation through real-world learning and social enterprise.
