Australia’s 100 Best Coffee Shops

Top review site Yelp has revealed a list of Australia’s top 100 coffee shops.

Yelp, which rates its eateries based on user feedback, discovered Aussies’ favorite way to drink coffee: the latte, followed by the expresso and flat white.

Following this find, they wanted to know the best places to find a latte in each state of the country (excluding Tasmania, the ACT and the Northern Territory, which didn’t have enough active reviewers to make the list). This is how, after some number-crunching, they came up with the top 100 places for coffee in NSW, QLD, VIC and SA, for even the snobbiest of snobby coffee connoisseurs.

Here are the top ten places for each of the included states to get your caffeine fix. Did they get it right? Tell us in the comments below.
