Every The Roasting Party coffee we track, priced per cup, and which bag is actually the cheap one.
Coffee is sold by the bag and drunk by the cup, and the two almost never rank in the same order. A The Roasting Party 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 The Roasting Party coffee we track, across whole bean and ground, on one honest unit.
The quick version
Delicate and fruit-forward rather than strong, and it undercuts the average.

What The Roasting Party coffee costs
The range runs from 61p to £1.03 a cup across 12 products. That is a 1.7× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is The Roasting Party expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Metal Mickey in the 1kg, and the dearest is Nyeri Decaf in the 1kg.
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metal Mickey | — | 1kg | £0.61 | £34.00 |
| Hokey Pokey | — | 1kg | £0.61 | £34.00 |

| Nyeri Decaf | ground | 1kg | £1.03 | £57.00 |
Bags themselves run £34.00 to £57.00. 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

How to pay less for it
- Read the per-cup column, not the shelf price. They order differently more often than not.
- 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.
- Check whether the same coffee turns up in a larger bag further down the range. It often does, at a lower rate.
- Check again before you reorder. Whoever was cheapest last month frequently is not.
