Every cafe trend we track in Australia
What this covers
Cafe figures come from the cafes we read in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart: their posts, customers' posts, Google reviews and menus. Each city is counted on its own with the same rules; we never add cities together.
For Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Hobart we read Google reviews and menus only, not posts yet.
Searches are Google searches a month across all of Australia. Trends whose searches are rising fastest come first.
Micro means fewer than 10 cafes have posted it in the last 90 days in every city we track. The tag goes by itself once 10 or more cafes in any city have it.

How these are counted
Searches are Google searches a month across all of Australia, for the names each trend goes by. The line on each card covers the last 24 months Google has reported. Trends are ordered by the change in the latest three months against the same three a year earlier (Aug to Oct 2026 against Aug to Oct 2025), which needs 100 searches a month or more a year earlier. Trends with too few searches to count come last, those in the most cities first.
The stage on each card is the one most cities give the trend, and says how many. Each city's stage comes from its own cafes, with the same rules in every city; we never add cities together into one Australian cafe figure. We read Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart.
