There’s something deeply satisfying about watching someone truly get Melbourne coffee culture, especially when that someone happens to be a WWE superstar turned Hollywood actor with 16 million Instagram followers. John Cena’s recent coffee commentary has been doing the rounds online, and honestly, it’s the kind of validation that makes this city’s caffeine-obsessed residents beam with pride.

What struck me most wasn’t just that he knew his way around coffee terminology - though his technical breakdown of flat white preparation was impressively spot on. It was the way he pronounced “Melbourne” without that grating American “Mel-bourrrrn” that makes every local wince. Small details matter, and Cena clearly paid attention during his time here.
