What Elsewhere Coffee Roasters sells, what it costs against the rest of the market, and who should buy it.
Elsewhere Coffee Roasters sells 11 coffees in the UK, and like every brand the range hides a wide spread once you price it by the cup instead of by the bag. Here is what it contains and what it actually costs to drink.

What kind of roaster this is
Elsewhere Coffee Roasters sells coffee in the UK, and we track 11 of their coffees, in 1kg and 200g.
Elsewhere Coffee Roasters is a blender: 100% of the range we can classify is blended rather than sold as a named origin. That is a choice, not a shortcut. A blend can be rebuilt season to season to taste the same, which is what you want if you buy the same coffee every month and would rather it did not move under you. The roasting spans 3 of our five levels, so there is a genuine choice to make inside the range rather than one house style applied to everything. Bags come in both small and kilo sizes, and the gap between them per kilo is usually the largest saving available anywhere on this page. Decaf is 18% of the range, which is unusually well served; most brands treat it as an afterthought.

What Elsewhere Coffee Roasters coffee costs
The range runs from 36p to £2.11 a cup across 11 products. That is a 5.9× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is Elsewhere Coffee Roasters expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Wildcard in the 1kg, and the dearest is Decaf in the 200g.
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wildcard | — | 1kg | £0.36 | £20.00 |
| Daydreamer | — | 1kg | £0.68 | £37.50 |
| Ripple | — | 1kg | £0.72 | £40.00 |
| Night Rider Decaf | — | 1kg | £0.86 | £48.00 |
| Realm | — | 1kg | £0.94 | £52.00 |
| Mandarin Sun | — | 1kg | £1.08 | £60.00 |
| Discovery | — | 1kg | £1.08 | £60.00 |
| Forest Brew | — | 1kg | £1.08 | £60.00 |
| Cosmos | — | 1kg | £1.19 | £66.00 |
| Melon Drop | — | 1kg | £1.35 | £75.00 |
| Decaf | — | 200g | £2.11 | £117.00 |
Bags themselves run £20.00 to £75.00. 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
Wildcard is the cheapest thing Elsewhere Coffee Roasters sells, at 36p a cup. We cannot yet set that against a market average, because the range is not yet classified by format, so treat it as the floor of the range rather than a verdict on value.
How Elsewhere Coffee Roasters tastes
We have not tasted Elsewhere Coffee Roasters, so we are not going to invent a tasting note. A flavour score we did not earn would be worth less than none, and this section would be the easiest place on the site to quietly make one up. What we can show you is measured: where every coffee in the range sits on our own five-point roast scale, and which origins go into it. Roast is the strongest single predictor of whether a cup arrives bright and fruity or dark and chocolatey, so it is the closest honest answer to what this brand is like to drink.
How Elsewhere Coffee Roasters roasts
Every coffee standardised onto our own five-point scale rather than the roaster's. Read these as tendencies: origin, process and how you brew all move the cup.
Who it suits
- People who found something they like and want it to taste the same next year, which is what a blend is for.
- Anyone whose real comparison is supermarket own-brand, judged per cup rather than by the label.
- People who want to choose their own roast rather than take the roaster's word for it, since the range covers 3 of our five levels.
Is it good value?
Our test is simple, and it is the same one we apply to everything: cost per cup against the median for the same format. Elsewhere Coffee Roasters lands around the middle. It is not the cheapest way to a cup of coffee, and the money above the median buys convenience and consistency rather than a smaller bill. Whether that is a fair trade is genuinely your call, not ours.
