CafePod coffee price guide

Every CafePod coffee we track, priced per cup, and which bag is actually the cheap one.

Updated 3 September 2026Written by the We Try Coffee team

Coffee is sold by the bag and drunk by the cup, and the two almost never rank in the same order. A CafePod bag that looks dear on the shelf can turn out to be the cheapest thing here once you divide it out, and the one that looks like a bargain often is not. So here is every CafePod coffee we track, across whole bean, ground and pods, on one honest unit.

The quick version

Easy-drinking coffee with caramel and chocolate about it, at an unremarkable price.

What CafePod coffee costs

The range runs from 44p to 99p a cup across 31 products. That is a 2.3× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is CafePod expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Brunch Blend in the 36 pods, and the dearest is Easy Rider in the 1kg.

Bags themselves run £8.50 to £55.00. Ignore that column. A bigger bag costs more and almost always costs less per cup, which is the only number that follows you home.

The one to buy

If you buy one thing from CafePod, buy Brunch Blend. At 44p a cup it comes in around 16% under the median for pods coffee, and that is measured against every brand in our catalogue rather than against CafePod's own list prices. Nothing else in the range gets close on that test.

How to pay less for it

  1. Read the per-cup column, not the shelf price. They order differently more often than not.
  2. Buy the biggest bag you will finish in about six weeks. Pack size moves the per-kilo price further than anything else on this page.
  3. For pods, price a compatible capsule for your machine first. The brand premium on capsules is usually the largest one going.
  4. Check again before you reorder. Whoever was cheapest last month frequently is not.
