Inspired By A
Legend.
Reimagined In
Elsternwick.

The story behind Goat House begins with Kaldi, the Ethiopian goatherd whose curious goats are said to have discovered coffee after eating bright red berries centuries ago.

That story inspired more than a name. It inspired a place built around gathering, conversation and the simple joy of sharing food and coffee together.
