The best coffee gifts for Christmas

Coffee is one of the easiest, most-loved gifts to give — everyone has their morning ritual, and great coffee always gets used. Here's a guide to the best coffee gifts this Christmas, whoever you're buying for.

For the pod lover

If they have a Nespresso® or Dolce Gusto® machine, a selection of quality compatible pods is a perfect gift — far cheaper than original-brand capsules, and a chance to try flavours they wouldn't normally buy. Put together a mix from the Nespresso® or Dolce Gusto® ranges.

For the bean purist

For anyone with a bean-to-cup or espresso machine, a 1kg bag (or a few) of freshly roasted beans is a treat that lasts. Pick a single origin for something special — see our guide to the best beans for a bean-to-cup machine, or browse 1kg beans.

For the eco-conscious friend

Give great coffee with none of the guilt: our home-compostable pods break down in a home compost bin, not just an industrial one. A thoughtful gift for anyone trying to cut waste.

For the person who has everything

Give an experience, not just a product: a coffee subscription keeps arriving all year, and they choose the flavours. Here's why a coffee subscription makes such a good gift — or just build a box to send.

Stocking fillers

A single pack of pods, a bar of something to go with the coffee, or a bag of beans all make great, affordable stocking fillers that never go to waste.

Don't leave it too late

Order before 3pm for next-day UK delivery, seven days a week — but the closer to Christmas, the busier the couriers, so it's worth ordering early. Build a gift box now and save up to 30% with free UK delivery. Buying for the office or clients? See our corporate coffee gifts guide.
