James & Pia

Both James and Pia have been involved in the Launceston café scene for over 20 years. In 2011 they opened Café Mondello with a key focus on a warm, welcoming atmosphere, the best quality local ingredients and fresh homemade food.

As well as Café Mondello, keeping them busy are their three children, Huon, Ari and Maclin, and their dog, Alfie. Not to forget their side hustle – two four two boutique apartments. Offering self-contained convenience and situated just above the café, James and Pia certainly have their hands full – but wouldn’t have it any other way!
