What Kimbo sells, what it costs against the rest of the market, and who should buy it.
This is an assessment of Kimbo as a brand rather than a live price list — for current prices on every product, the Kimbo hub is the page you want. Here we look at how the range is shaped, where it sits on value, and what we would buy instead.
Live prices for every Kimbo product are on the Kimbo brand page. This review is the analysis that sits alongside it.
The range
Kimbo sells whole bean and ground in the UK. We currently track 2 products, in 1kg and 250g. A brand that spans several formats is usually worth judging format by format — the same name can be excellent value in one and poor in another.
What Kimbo coffee costs
We track 2 Kimbo products, spanning £0.36 to £0.43 per cup — a 1.2× spread within one brand. The cheapest is Espresso Napoletano (1kg); the most expensive is Espresso Napoli (250g).
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Espresso Napoletano | whole bean | 1kg | £0.36 | £19.88 |
| Espresso Napoli | ground | 250g | £0.43 | £24.00 |
Pack prices run from £6.00 to £19.88. As always, the pack price is the least useful number here — the per-cup column is the one that compares.
Best value in the range
Espresso Napoletano is the strongest value Kimbo currently offers: at £0.36 per cup it sits about 24% below the median cup price for whole bean coffee across everything we track. That is a comparison against the whole market, not against Kimbo's own list prices.
Who it suits
- Home espresso and cafetière drinkers, if the large-format bags are within your six-week window.
- Anyone comparing against supermarket own-brand on price per cup rather than on the label.
- Anyone who wants a repeatable cup rather than a rotating single origin.
Value for money
On our own test — cost per cup against the median for the same format — Kimbo has at least one genuinely strong product in the range. That is a better result than most brands manage, and it is concentrated in the larger pack sizes.

Alternatives worth comparing
Before buying, put Kimbo next to the wider format list. The comparison hubs sort every brand we track onto the same per-cup basis, which is the only way to see whether a brand premium is buying you anything.
