What to expect from your subscription

Whether you're treating yourself or buying a gift, here's exactly what you get with a Blue Coffee Box subscription: the coffee, the choices you can make, and what lands on your doormat.

Your coffee

What's in each delivery

Your coffee arrives in letterbox-friendly packaging, so you don't need to be in. Each coffee comes in our recyclable EcoBag, inside our EcoPack: a cardboard mailer you can compost. With every coffee you'll find a card telling you where it's from, who roasted it and its tasting notes, the hints of flavour to look out for in the cup.

We send everything by Royal Mail Tracked 48, which usually takes two working days, and delivery is free on all subscriptions. We deliver to UK addresses only.

Our Taste Guarantee

We choose coffees to match the roast you like, rather than promising a particular country each time. If you ever receive a coffee you don't enjoy, tell us and we'll send you a replacement free of charge.

You're in control

There's no minimum term. You can change your roast, grind or delivery date, skip a delivery or cancel at any time from your account.

Start my coffee subscription

Gift subscriptions

Choose 1, 3, 6 or 12 months and pay once. Gift subscriptions don't renew automatically. You can choose when the first delivery arrives, add a personal message that we'll print on a card, and add gift wrapping for a small extra cost as the last step when you build your gift. Your email receipt includes a downloadable gift certificate, so you have something to hand over on the day.

Prefer to let them choose? Our digital gift cards (£40, £80 or £120) can be emailed with a message on the day you pick, or printed at home. Find out more about coffee gift subscriptions.

Prefer tea?

Our tea subscription brings three rare and single-origin loose leaf teas every month, with a free infuser in the first box. Choose the Mini (three 25g bags) from £9.99 or the Box (three 45g bags) from £14.99. Like our coffee, the tea comes in recyclable EcoBags inside a compostable EcoPack. Find your tea subscription.
