Brand review · 3 min readMy Store coffee review
What My Store sells, what it costs against the rest of the market, and who should buy it.
My Store asks 76p a cup at its cheapest, which is more than most whole bean coffee we list. Plenty of brands charge that and are worth it. The question is what you get for the difference, so here is the range, what it costs against everything else, and where we would put the money.
Short answer
Delicate and fruit-forward rather than strong, at the going rate.

What kind of roaster this is
My Store sells whole bean in the UK, and we track 11 of their coffees, in 1kg and 250g.
Expect blends here rather than named farms: 82% of the classified range is blended. The trade is a familiar one. You give up the story on the label and you get a cup that does not drift between orders. The buying reaches 5 countries across the range, which is a wide book for a brand this size. 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.

What My Store coffee costs
The range runs from 54p to 90p a cup across 11 products. That is a 1.7× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is My Store expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Carnival Blend in the 1kg, and the dearest is Capulinero in the 250g.
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carnival Blend | — | 1kg | £0.54 | £30.00 |
| El Búho Sugarcane Decaf | — | 1kg | £0.63 | £35.00 |
| Bullseye Brew | — | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| Cafe Queero | — | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| FC | — | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| Polo | whole bean | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| Roaster's Pick | — | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| Bean to Cask | whole bean | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| Elephant & Castle | — | 250g | £0.76 | £42.00 |
| Papayo | — | 250g | £0.90 | £50.00 |
| Capulinero | — | 250g | £0.90 | £50.00 |
Bags themselves run £10.50 to £35.00. 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
Carnival Blend is the cheapest thing My Store sells, at 54p a cup. We cannot yet set that against a market average for whole bean coffee, so treat it as the floor of the range rather than a verdict on value.
What that costs over a year
How much coffee do you drink?
- My Store£0.76 per cup£552
- Typical whole bean£0.63 per cup, our median£460
At 2 cups a day, My Store costs £92 more a year than the typical whole bean coffee we track. Worth knowing before you commit to a subscription.
How My Store tastes
We have not tasted My Store, 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 My Store 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. My Store 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.
