Say Hello to Our Boring® Friends and their Neat Places
Cart
Say hello to our friend Oliver from C4 Coffee. The Operations Manager at C4 Coffee. Oliver ensures every cup is brewed to perfection and keeps café relationships as strong as his single origin Ethiopian long black, aahem.. coffee connoisseur.
C4’s Coffee is tucked away in a converted warehouse on Fitzgerald Ave. With a solid 27 years of experience on their side, C4 is the real OG of the Christchurch coffee scene and a pioneer of the specialty coffee movement in Ōtautahi.
We asked Oliver a few boring questions so you can get to know him, and his neat place, a little better.
