Barista Vlog Australia (Working in One of The Busiest Cafes in Sydney CBD)

- Hey guys! In this video, I'll show you how my daily routine looks like as a barista.
This video was recorded when Sydney had zero case of covid for quite a long period of time, that's why you can observe we were so chill and relaxed. Wearing masks was not mandatory in Sydney yet. However, as many companies are now implementing a working-from-home policy, it has impacted our cafe a lot.
We wish you all stay safe wherever you are and please enjoy the video :)

Was a barista for a time and had that same experience of seeing people wait outside the cafe before it opened (at like 5:30am), sometimes even when it was raining. It's a mostly chill time, even if you're in the midst of rush it can go relatively smoothly if you have enough stock/staff to accommodate. The hard part is dealing with entitled customers, bonus that if you get a bunch of them back to back during rush. I strongly believe that I learned more about life in 6 months of managing a cafe than I did in 4 years of college. Everybody should experience working this type of job at some point in their lives. You have my respect fellow barista!
thanks for sharing your experience! i’m a current college student and just got hired at starbucks yesterday :) and i chose to go for starbucks because i wanted to gain skills and experiences and grow as a person. not to mention, i also have social anxiety and previously was quite bad at social interaction, so i want this job to push me to practice and help with my anxiety. it will be interesting dealing with entitled customers and i just feel like it will help me become stronger and more vocal. your comment assures me that i will definitely gain a lot from my new job!!
Anyone else taking one step back and being amazed how through the magic of the internet we can experience the work life of this sweet girl from (what is to me) the opposide side of the world? Thank you for your video. I really enjoyed it! :)
Thank you :)
First time on the internet?
@@mattsmith718 no, been too much. Taken for granted the wonders of the technology. Guess that’s why I took the step back. 😌
What is your address of the cafe
@@stephenlee7219 southern end of Town Hall station
This was me 8-10 years ago. Back then I used to hate getting up so early for my morning shifts but now that I have a regular 9-5 job, it makes me think that the job I did before - opening the cafe by myself and prepping stuff - was sort of therapeutic. :)
Same here, so I get myself a coffee machine in my regular 9-5 job.
It's just relaxing seeing someone enjoy their daily routine and bring happiness through a cup of coffee!
its crazy to know some people queue already before the coffee shop open, and its 5am.. kudos to your working etiquette!
Yes! Thank you so much :)
Me too! I am a barista in germany. My work start at 06.30
It is the Job that you love to do or you better find another job🤗
@@jasminmiken7265 That's so true! Stay safe :)
@@jasminmiken7265 because you are coffee Adicted .🤩
Mad respect! 2 of my sisters are baristas and seeing this just made me realise how tough some days can be for them. Keep it up!👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you 🙌
So she is an bartender.
This video was absolutely relaxing to watch and at the same time just looking at the efficiency got me energetic
Thank you so much :)
I have much more appreciation for Barista after this. She works hard. Your average Joe would probably quit if they have to go through what she did.
what did you think they did? Sit on their arse?
I find this oddly therapeutic to watch lol.
Thank you so much :)
It's the busy part for me 😆
Ikr
It's amazingly so!
Totally agree with you brewing coffee while watching this love coffee
From barista to barista, your ethic should be standard in our industry. I used to be a chef before I changed for the better hours (I wake up 4-5am normally anyway) and because during my patisserie cert I was introduced to coffee making, honestly its just as busy as a kitchen without the unnecessary stress and heat.
Love how formulaic and organised you work, every order modulated as it should be.
Thank you so much :)
@@BaristaBeeJournal1 In complete honesty, since I want to own a cafe one day, im still struggling as all hell with barista work. Not the same as making ramen and fried rice on the line, but definetly more enjoyable stress wise.
Those were the days for me a few years ago. Pension days were the worst. Non stop coffee orders. You don't get to finish an order and you'd be starting another for 5 hours
I appreciate you stirring the sugar in! Some baristas don't do that so I end up with undissolved sugar at the bottom of my coffee and the coffee being mostly bitter throughout, until the very end (then it becomes super sweet).
pro tip: quit sugar lol
@@DracMastah neverrrrrrr!
What I like about Sydney is that there's so many local coffee shops, and hardly any Starbucks. I used to work on Elizabeth Street in the CBD, and the closest was all the way near the Anzac Memorial.
starbucks failed in australia, genius. no shit there aren't many starbucks
@@vinnydinny6355 They didn't ask for a reason why there weren't any Starbucks in Sydney, they just stated that they like it. What kind of ridiculous response is this? Cool it.
As a work from home employee, can definitely see even being a barista is a lot of work with all the prep same with kitchen work. I can’t imagine. Just started watching this barista videos and it’s so insightful. For someone who loves coffee and seeing the mad queues at times on my fave coffee shops, can’t imagine the stress they had to go through with rush hours. Now I wanna buy some coffee haha!
You probably the cutest , fastest barista in the world that can make many cups of coffee and talk to the customer at the same time
Cheers from Phuket Thailand.
Everything becomes automatic because I do the same tasks everyday for the past few years 😆, but thank you so much :)
Sending love from Sydney✨
I almost forget I have legs after rush hours 😂 that when I lay down it feels so heavenly.
Hello am from Uganda how can l get a job that side am also barista.
Just here randomly scrolling on a day in a life of barista. Smooth moves. Man, I would've forgotten the customers name and their order on that volume. 🤣🤣.
This randomly popped on my feed.. and I'm glad it did, luv the work! luv the music!
Awesome! Thank you! :)
I have never thought the process was sooooooo complicated behind the scene.Thats why I love Aussie coffee.
It's complicated everywhere, not just Australia
@@franco8630 To be fair, a lot of places do not "dial in the beans" before starting the shift. It's more common in Australia than other countries I've visited.
@@ItsAlwaysHappyHour Im from El Salvador but currently live in the US, most coffee shops ive worked at coffee is a science . Good coffee shops must follow all that process from beginning to end no matter where. But you might be right, cant speak for Starbucks and all those skunks for example lol
1 % barista 99% passion
7:00 in, what's she making... Oh a latte cappuccino :/ Wait a sec
Sydney baristas make good coffee. I used to have my take away coffee from QVB on my way to work every morning. Seeing you make those takeaway coffees reminds me of my mornings to work passing by my favorite coffee shop at QVB. Always good coffee!
Watching this gave me a mind therapy. As a chef, I could totally relate to the multi-tasking part!
This is a stark contrast to the baristas in the coffee shop next to my workplace who are always chatting and slowly taking their time while fifteen customers stare at them waiting for their orders.
OMG I could never do that…if I see more than 3 people my body goes into fight or flight mode to get their orders done.
having been a barista myself, I gotta say this would have been real useful to watch before working, because it's helpful to see your workflow and explanation of your actions / steps. Also surprisingly entertaining :)
a really tough job standing behind the coffee makers, with endless customer and juggling altogether. But still, its very entertaining watching adorable both of you vlogs like this in the middle of pandemic. Cheers from Indonesia. :D
Thank you so much :)
I've been stressed out lately in different aspects but.. I'm glad I ended up watching this, I ended up having fun and felt quite relaxed. Only if I wasn't low on time I'd watch more. Keep it up, I enjoyed this!
...yea, coffee should calm you right down!
Love these videos 💖 I think they're super helpful for beginners or people who just got hired, to see what the workflow is like and it's basically a visual tour for the service blueprint. Wish more business could have something like to show to their new employees, work would be so much easier, especially the initial training. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!! 🙏🙏
This is so relaxing with the espressos and music put together. I love it and I love your channel, very good job!!!
Thank you so much :)
The more I busy, the better I do sometimes. That feeling makes me love more this job.
From this point of view I can feel a lot of pressure going down there, and I can see you enjoying that everyday because of your passion in your job, and that's great!
This vlog was brilliant. Showing the normality of life, and details of the job. Perfect for anyone wanting to experience life of a barista. As viewer calming to watch
Thanks so much!
Watching you put a smile on the face of your customers when you greet them with their coffees made this video for me. :)
You make it look enjoyable. There are baristas, and then there are baristas
19:41 is that "oh I have been standing too long on my feet after rush hour" face hahahaha from a fellow ex-barista who frequent rush hour service especially morning one, I feel you siss. Nice video! made me miss my barista dayss
Indeed! >< Thank you so much :)
I like how mellow this is, just sipping on some coffee and watching this is so self-medicating! ☕
i just randomly got recommended this video.. i've been in NYC over the pandemic and I realised halfway through this was my regular coffee spot back in sydney!!! I would always grab a coffee here in the morning on my way to work in the citibank building and sometimes a cheeky one for an afternoon break too :P this got me very nostalgic and I miss your coffees so much 😭please know that something as simple as making someone a coffee can really leave an impression in their life ❤i see this video is almost a yr old now and i know things took a bad turn with covid in sydney, i hope you guys are staying safe 💕
I can't go back to my lofi playlist with study girl looped animation after watching this. Amazing job!
Thank you so much :)
@@BaristaBeeJournal1 where do you get the playlist from?
for some reason its the the hiding in the back whilst eating sent me a wave of nostalgia of my barista days haha
10:26 yesss 👏🏼👏🏼
your explanations really outline clearly what it’s like to be a barista, i’m just nodding in agreement to everything 😌
I always walk past this cafe but I’ll definitely visit this cafe next time - I can trust the barista will do an excellent job
Thank you so much :)
your coffee, along with the cookie, is one of my favourite coffee in CBD!
Thank you so much :)
May I know where is it?

I now realize working at a coffee counter could be a busy job that involves so many tasks.. Preparing the milk, coffee bean, and the machine, then actually brewing the coffee, then test tasting the coffee to make sure they are good enough , then serving customers, then getting money from customers. But I think the most satisfying moment is when you are able to see your customers put a smile on their faces when they are enjoying the coffee you make. Hard work pays back. That's the essence of being a professional barista. I am glad you can provide delicious coffee for you customers before they head for another long day for their work.
So enjoyable to watch , I love that hustle bustle adrenaline rush and multi-tasking ! Feeling your love and joy from being a barista, thanks for sharing! :)
Damn. All i see is how many people walking around without masks on. Feels like we (america) will never be back to that😭😭😭 lighter note, this making me really want some coffee lol
Its tough times for all. In Melbourne (Australia) we went from over 700+ cases a day to 0. Granted we endured fairly harsh lockdowns for 6 months, we now sit fairly comfortable and appear to be on top of it now. Masks were required and are now loosened with the need for masks only when shopping in tight confines. Wishing you the best of luck, stay strong. It may feel like forever, but things will slowly become normal over time.
I legit choked up seeing everyone without masks. It's brutal here in America on so many levels.
@@knittingdoula Sydney had it pretty good. Lockdown for around 6 weeks in march then everything slowly started opening up again. Was at the beach on the weekend and you couldnt even tell we were in a pandemic. Until after Christmas, most people didnt wear masks. Felt sorry for the guys in Melb though, they had pretty severe lockdowns.
@@shavenkat yeah, I'm in Melbourne and as you know we're currently on lockdown no.3. I'm really hoping we reopen this Thursday. They say it'll only be five days but who knows that may get extended up to a few more days or even weeks or months for that matter. Fingers crossed that's not gonna happen. 🤞🤞 🙏
I feel stressed just looking at her making so many orders at the same time. That's a skill mastered after at least a couple to a few years of making everyday!
I miss working as an allrounder at the cafes in Perth during my uni days ❤ It was also the first time I was given barista duties, but not being a coffee drinker then, I did not know what I was doing at alllll... all I can say is that I sucked at it (burnt milk, still cold, etc). Lol.... But food prep, other drinks and just taking order and cleaning... I actually really miss that. Annnd the lovely Aussies, their hellos and thank yous and everything about them always make my day.... Miss the land down undah... thanks for this video! Love the vibe and the memories all of this brings.
I have been a barista for 6 years, really improved this past year. watching you work is an absolute pleasure! keep going!
Def make more of these daily vlogs, they are so satisfying to watch.
for the third time this week I ordered Starbucks delivery and I enjoyed my coffee while I was watching your videos. This is the closest I can be form a cafeteria. Love ya
Good memories, used to work in coffee company about 7 years ago. Had alot of fun pulling shots, pouring latte art, making blends.
I clicked on this video randomly before realising I actually go to this cafe all the time when I catch a train into the city! Always tastes great and love the little cookie you get with your coffee :)
multi-tasking at a whole other level of professionalism
Thank you so much :)
It's just fun to watch you doing all that stuff and keep busy.
First time seeing the action behind the coffee machine.A lot of work and very fast paced and on top of this you have customer interactions and food preps as well.You must love the job or else you you won't last.Love the back ground music.I now have more appreciation for baristas and the work they do.
Nice work. It reminds me the good old Uni time, worked in a weekend market coffee cart, 6 barista on 3 machines, 1 for shot 1 for milk only. Always over 20 people queue during the middle day peak. All young and fun, and the best time would be the latte art competition during off peak. Thanks for your video.
it's ssooo comforting to see there's this part of the world where life w/o masks and constantly sanitizing your hands still exist. nice video! keep it up!
The editing in this, camera angles and such are so good! So nice to watch thank you, I subscribed 🙂
Thank you so sooo much 💓💓💓
Watching the process and multitasking was somehow really calming - thanks.
I watch this to relax me especially when I'm doing stuff. The sound of the machine and you working so hard make me feel better.
Huge respect for all the people working in food industry ❤️
You make it look easy. Watching you working helped me appreciate a little of what a barista does each day. I usually just pay the cashier and wait for my coffee, so much goes on behind the scenes. Thank you! 🙏
100%! There are many things going on behind the machine for a perfect cup of coffee. Thank you so soo much :)
I had been trained in a Training Center here in the phil. for barista and it was fun . Hardships and friendships is what a barista is. Its nostalgic for me seeing a barista making coffee. Love the video.Thanks keep safe everyone!. GODBLESS
Props to people like you for making city life so much better, good cafes and getting good coffee makes me so much happier and more productive. You're also very cute 😊
barista life is so cool...and im one of them im a barista also in kuwait.🙂🙂☺☺
I like how can relate to every single thing you're saying in this vid xD like a small mistake slowing the work flow and having no time to clean the station during rush hours.
Thank you so much :)
I just love watching another professional barista at work! So fascinating and interesting :D
Cheers from another barista from Malaysia!
What a hardworking girl, and also she is the cutest and prettiest barista i've ever seen here in youtube. :)
Aw! Thank you so much :)
GOOD MORNING. YOU COOK THE COFFEEE ☕☕☕
this makes me hope to one day find something i enjoy doing
Stunning little video. You both do proud for the coffee company you both work for. They are lucky to have you.
Thank you so much! 💓💓
I’m so glad I found your UA-cam!! It’s so nice to see fellow baristas working!! ❤️❤️❤️ It’s so nice to be back behind the machine 😀
With that kind of space, I would say you have to be extra careful on the latte art because a slight bump and it's all gone 😂😂 but then I realised it's a take away cafe, so lucky you 😜😜😉
Yess it happened so many times 🤣
Thank you :)
Oh this looks like the town hall stat (cinema exit) , I was wondering if I can see myself in the vlog but I exit the other side of the station for work 😅
I watched the full 21 mins video without a skip and enjoyed watching the whole time. Love your work and it makes me really want to have a coffee made by you.
Thank you! Cheers!
This pop up on my yt feed in search for my first espresso machine, and watch the whole video while eating breakfast on a rainy Sunday here NJ ! So relaxing to watch you and thanks for the tips too. Bicycle and coffee shop my dream of having. Great Job and subscribed !
Everything you did at your shift is so similar to what I did when I worked in a coffee shop in London. Miss the pre pandemic bustles
It's so much fun, right? Stay safe! 😆
This was great! Made me incredibally home sick for Australia. Good work!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks :)
when i'm stressed i just watch your videos. It's so therapeutic
I miss working as a barista.. yet i am stuck with a regular engineer's job. The jams were good, the good food, the active lifestyle, managing different orders and recipes.. was a rush during packed meal times too. Thanks for this vlog.. and thanks for great jams!
Thank you so much! :)
I'm studying to be an engineer currently, next year I'm graduating and I'm scared I'm gonna miss the times I was working in the food/drink industry as a student (my job rn is making sushi and waitoring)
I used to get a coffee from here before school almost everyday when I was in Sydney in 2015 :)
Ooh wow! Hello there, I used to work as the customer service in the cafe back then in 2015, then I quit and came back to the cafe recently as a barista 😆😆
@@BaristaBeeJournal1 nice. At that time its only 2 staffs there I think. One is the owner lady and a handsome boy lol (I forgot both of their names)
@@jaaj18 I see, maybe that was before the store was sold 😆
@@BaristaBeeJournal1 yes, i think they moved to Melbourne? Anyway, if i am back to Sydney, will say hello to you ka. :)
@@jaaj18 yes I heard about it! Yes, please !! Have a good one :)
This looks exhausting. I don't understand how people call this video relaxing. Can you imagine keeping up this hectic workflow for hours on end?? We only saw 20 minutes! You should get paid more for this amount of work.
I actually enjoy that kind of workflow. Time just passes faster that way for me and I like the customer interaction :)
If I have a job with a lot of downtime I just constantly check the clock and wait for my shift to end, but if I got something to do all the time an 8 hour shift can feel like 5
@@Nyahnator couldn't agree more. Busy days are the best and they pass the quickest.
It's so relaxing to watch. More of this!! Editing skills are also lit!
I'm sure it's said many times already but I want to thank you for this. It was thoroughly entertaining, relaxing and educational. I absolutely love the music too!
Thank you🙏
Now I just wanna go there and drink coffee made by this barista hahaha
Shocked you can have the biscuits out on the counter
We used to have customers just grabbing handfuls when we left ours out 😂
You are so cute!! I like to see how diligent you are so early in the morning and it's not an easy job and you keep smiling.. nice to watch the video. Thank you very much, and have a good one 😀
Thank you so much! You too :)
I Miss this past job I have for only 6 months only but everytime I enter our shop and smell the Robusta and arabica coffee its make my day and enjoy to serve evry coffee with or without design. may God give me this Job again I will love to learn more also get use of the temperature with my hands too
And i get confused while making coffee for my own on a french press
The best thing in life is not how much you're paid but how you enjoy doin it
The multitasking skill is crazy!! You’re professional 😮
When I find a cafe which makes a nice coffee, I'll come back the next day. When they make nice coffee and the workers are friendly & make small talk, I'll keep on coming back ❤
Man, I thought she just changed her workplace. Turns out that's a complete different person. Some people know what I'm talking about lol
Yeaa samee! ahahah
oops
😂 yup, we know what you mean
Tbh low key now I wanna be a batista. I've always been told I'm great with customers working in sales.but I hate how id get close to customers and my boss would want me yo push a credit card. Making coffee id be able to just enjoy talking Making coffee and just sell them a coffee nothing else.
Great camera angles, focus, and presentation! What a difficult and fast paced job that is. You are one hard working baby girl!
Never saw a youtuber replying to most comments😂 and she’s cute
I agree she is beautiful.😍
stop please..
I'm a 11 year old squeeker and I'm gonna call you SIMP
smooth workflow, but still better to wear a mask esp during this time lol
Yes, we are wearing mask all the time now :), The video was recorded in November when we had 0 case for a long period of time. Now wearing mask is mandatory :)
I’m a barista in Brazil and just enjoyed watching your routine ! Bless you
I don’t know why but this vid is therapeutic to watch. I feel less stressed about work.
Don't forget to swirl the jug to mix the milk to have aa creamy textures coffee 👍
Missing those days before corona when I can go to coffee shop
....you cant go to a coffee shop? Leave your state/city immediately.
