Reviewer: (2025) Alan from New Forest   

Perfect coffee, delivered promptly, highly recommend. The coffee though, oh my goodness, it’s the best ever. Now coffee at home is better than any coffee I can buy at any coffee shop. Spoilt, but enjoying it.

Reviewer: (2025) Margaret from London   

As usual excellent service. Really good and varied coffees.

Reviewer: (2025) Nigel from Northallerton   

As always the choice of coffee is excellent, delivered quickly and enjoyed every day. We choose a selection of coffees be they beans or ground, the tastes are very refreshing and as the descriptions provided, thank you Love of coffee.

Reviewer: (2024) Arnold from Durham   

I've been buying my coffee at The Love of Coffee for quite a few years. They're efficient, informative and have a good range of beans. I always qualify for free postage too. I recommend them unreservedly.

Reviewer: (2024) Sally from Worcestershire   

I have been buying my fresh coffee from here for 3 years. The coffee selection is great and ordering is simple. The coffee is so fresh and great quality. I love that i can choose beans or different grinds. Super fast delivery on every order i have placed and good packaging. Perfect all round, i will continue to buy my coffee from here as for me, its the best online coffee retailer.

Reviewer: (2024) Karen from Hampshire   

A good selection of different coffees. Some we would buy again, some not. Favourites so far are Sumatran and Indian Monsoon Malabar. Still have more to try.

Reviewer: (2024) Mark from Saxilby   

Had to make a last minute order before Christmas and the response was very efficient. Coffee arrived in good time and was the usual superb quality. Christmas was saved!

Reviewer: (2024) V A from Devon   

Great coffee as always, well packaged, timely delivery, easy site to negotiate. Never had a problem so never had cause to contact customer services so can't comment on that. Always look forward to my lovely coffee drink from this company. Take it black with no sweetener so any bitterness will taste(ugh) and it never happens with these selections. Keep doing what you're doing peeps X.

Reviewer: (2024) Margaret from London   

Excellent service as usual. Always very good coffee whichever type you choose. Very subjective but you will always find a favourite.

Reviewer: (2024) Charles from Norfolk   

Always a good coffee, friendly service with great communications and delivered quickly. Cannot fault this Company!

Reviewer: (2024) Jon from Cumbria   

I haven't been able to try all the flavours I've ordered so far, but both the 'normal' and flavoured coffees I've tried have been great - especially Hazelnut, Black Cherry, and Indian Monsoon Malabar. Orders are sent quickly and well packaged; I'll certainly be making more orders in the future!

Reviewer: (2023) Andy from Forsbrook   

Tried 3 grades of filter coder ground mild,strong &very sting my main preference was the strong altho v.strong comes close second.

Reviewer: (2023) Cameron from Scotland   

By far my favourite coffee, flavourful and not bitter.

Reviewer: (2023) Keith from South of Scotland   

The quality of the coffee is outstanding. This is the online shop for you if you are looking for a wide range of coffees from a broad range of countries. I like the strong coffee and this Indian coffee suits me so well - it gets me started every morning. The order comes without delay and the beans are always fresh and ready to be ground. I cannot recommend this supplier highly enough for quality of service, price and speed of delivery. What a great service - very many thanks to the team.

Reviewer: (2022) Jeffrey from Manchester   

It seems that Indian Monsoon Malibar is a seasonal coffee as those supermarkets that do carry it often have none through the winter. I am so pleased that loveofcoffee carried it this winter with a choice of which method and strength. Further, compared to supermarket blends this is by far superior and even more so than some "upmarket" supermarkets. OK technically expensive as I only ordered one pack of 250gm - to try it. However, obviously a larger order of more than £25 would be cheaper. Delivery was excellent. I am happy to recommend the coffee and company.

Reviewer: (2022) Lindsey from Aberdeenshire   

Very pleased with the service provided from this company. Well packaged coffee and speedy delivery. At present I am working my way through a 4 bag selection and a bag of Indian Monsoon Malibar which I love. I drink my coffee black and find that IMM leaves no bitter after taste.

Reviewer: (2022) Louise from West Midlands   

We have tried a couple of different beans from The Love Of Coffee but this one is our favourite and the description matches it really well.

Reviewer: (2022) Gillian from Nottingham   

This was a Christmas present for my brother. He was very pleased with the combination of different coffees.

Reviewer: (2022) Gareth from Western Isles   

This is simply a lovely coffee. Deep, rich and of course, strong. It makes a lovely espresso. It always arrives as stated and the service from TLOC is second to none.

Reviewer: (2021) Margaret from London   

This company has a very informative website and if you need to email them they reply promptly. This is good Customer Service. I have tried many different coffees and have been happy with them. Obviously some are better than others but it is so subjective......keep trying until you find your favourites!

Reviewer: (2021) Susan from Eastbourne   

A favourite coffee, lovely to be able to choose a darker roast and fine espresso grind.

Reviewer: (2021) John from Devon   

A really informative and helpful website with lots of variety. Well done.

Reviewer: (2021) Ian from Glasgow   

This strong coffee is my all time favourite. Can be drunk any time of day. Definitely recommend to those who like strong, well balanced and smooth coffee with a lovely after taste.

Reviewer: (2021) NR from West Sussex   

Always a first class service, with an excellent variety of distinctive coffees.

Reviewer: (2021) Adrian from North Wilts   

The only coffee site that I have found that does a really dark roast which is how I like my Monsoon Malabar, it brings out the oils and increases the flavour [in my opinion] also the Decaf coffee's they do are so good you would not recognise them as decaf, excellent for late night drinking.

Reviewer: (2021) Michael from North East England   

Wow great coffee...taste is amazing...very unique taste.

Reviewer: (2021) Maria from Rutland   

Huge selection of coffee - good delivery service - have only tried two of the coffees and both are excellent - will order again and recommend to friends.

Reviewer: (2021) Gareth from Outer Hebrides   

TLOC has given me years of excellent service, which is why I keep coming back to them. My favorite coffee is Indian Monsoon Malabar (roasted extra dark). It is smooth and makes an excellent espresso. Even though I live on the far edges of the UK, my coffee always arrives in good time. Thanks again, TLOC.

Reviewer: (2021) Lyn from South Wales   

Fantastic service, superb coffee therefore will be placing a further order very soon.

Reviewer: (2021) Dimitris from Grays, Essex   

Delightful...

Reviewer: (2021) Lizzie from Newbury   

I have been using The Love of Coffee for a few years now and they never disappoint. Fantastic quality coffees with great choice. Great reliable service as well. Recommended.

Reviewer: (2021) Michael from Flintshire   

A marvelous range of coffee and selection of roasts. It's an adventure to try different ranges and to date I've not been disappointed.

Reviewer: (2021) Duncan from Southampton   

First class products with above first class service as always.

Reviewer: (2021) Galina from Wales   

Very impressive range of coffees. Kopi Luwak is definitely worth the money paid, will order it again, as well as Guatemala Maragogype, Indian Monsoon Malabar and Kenya AA. Australian Skybury Plantation coffee is a bit bitter for our taste, we prefer more acidic types.

Reviewer: (2021) Catherine from Glasgow   

This coffee is my best discovery during early lockdown. I have continued to order as all coffee I have purchased is brilliant and so flavoursome. So much choice, delivery fast, would recommend :-)

Reviewer: (2020) Lesley from Kent   

Wonderful coffee. Excellent service . Thank you.

Reviewer: (2020) Dave from Hampshire   

This is my second time of ordering and the beans always have turned up before time, I have ordered a number of taster bags and have been delighted on both occasions of the beans that i have purchased and the great taste every time. My wife of 30years has recently started drinking coffee this is something never heard of before.

Reviewer: (2020) Doreen from Wigan   

Always fantastic service from this company. All different beans are delicious. Thank you.

Reviewer: (2020) Joe from Suffolk   

Excellent service, coffee arrived as described and well packaged. The level of detail and choice offered by the website is amazing and allows searching for specific requirements, like strength, and also to discover new flavours. Also learnt about the different grind coarseness depending on type of coffee machine. Awesome.

Reviewer: (2020) Matt from Liverpool   

The best thing about lockdown has been finding the love of coffee. I used to spend money every day on average coffee from the high street. Now I pay less for incredible coffee. Try the Indian Monsoon Malabar (strong). You can then thank me later.

Reviewer: (2020) Colin from Fife   

Best coffee company around great service great coffee.

Reviewer: (2020) Ian from Cleveland   

Absolutely brilliant as usual. The coffee is fresh and wonderful each time and is only rivalled by the excellent service.

Reviewer: (2020) Margaret from London   

Great service from this company. Great coffee but keep going back to Indian Monsoon Malabar.

Reviewer: (2020) Bruce from Mid Wales   

Superb service. Superb coffee.

Reviewer: (2020) Sue from London   

Fantastic coffee, Thank you!

Reviewer: (2020) Jacqueline from Hampshire   

Good service, and enjoying trying some varied coffees.

Reviewer: (2020) Nalini from London   

I have been a regular customer of Love of Coffee for some years,so much so that I hardly by ground or Nescafe from Tesco, Sainsbury etc. I always buy the Monsoon Malabar Coffee, which suits my South Indian filtered coffee needs. The postal service of Love of Coffee is excellent, the quality of the grind is excellent, the taste of the Monsoon Malabar is soul satisfying. Everyone in my family loves this coffee, with or without milk. I now do not buy Nescafe, or ground coffee from Tesco or Sainsbury which are my local supermarket small outlets. I would recommend this coffee to all Coffee lovers.

Reviewer: (2020) Angela from Wakefield   

Lovely coffee - our favourite! Excellent service, arrived on time - nothing bad to report. Thank you

Reviewer: (2020) Colin from Scotland   

Best online coffee company I have found great range of coffee.

Reviewer: (2020) Ian from South Glamorgan   

Prompt delivery. Quality product. Changed the whole way I think about coffee.

Reviewer: (2020) Denyse from Ormskirk   

Great service. Great coffee. Need I say more!

Reviewer: (2020) Claire from Staffordshire   

Fab coffee and service! Would definitely recommend!

Reviewer: (2020) John from Leicestershire   

An excellent roaster where there is access to a wide selection of coffees from around the world which come in at various price points. Several purchases have been made and the products have arrived promptly even with basic postage. Favourite coffees so far are Indian monsoon malabar and the Old brown Java.

Reviewer: (2020) Margaret from London   

I have only been buying coffee here for a relatively short time. However I have been very satisfied with the quality of the products purchased and the service given. Lots of choice and very nice chocolate covered beans too.

Reviewer: (2020) David from North Wilts   

Although not the cheapest their coffee is probably the best I've had especially if like me you like a really dark roast.

Reviewer: (2020) Stephanie from Cornwall   

Purchased three packs of coffee. They arrived quickly, well packaged. We have really enjoyed trying something new and will certainly order again.

Reviewer: (2020) Mark from Dursley   

Excellent coffee delivery fast.

Reviewer: (2020) Susan from Derbyshire   

Smashing company to deal with. Speedy prompt service and just what I wanted. Many thanks.

Reviewer: (2020) Wayne from Northampton   

I have recently started making cold brew coffee and have ordered 3 different coffees from The Love of Coffee. My first batch of the Monsoon Malabar is absolutely perfect, the strength and flavours are amazing, the coarse grind no doubt helps. Looking forward to trying batches of the other 2 coffees bought but will definitely be getting more Monsoon Malabar. Great service and so much choice. Thank you.

Reviewer: (2020) Mike from Flintshire   

Excellent range of coffee's. Very competitive prices. Fast delivery. That's why I buy 90% of my coffee. From "The Love of Coffee" The other 10%, " Shock, Horror" is ground coffee.

Reviewer: (2019) John from Somerset   

I have bought Monsoon Malabar elsewhere over the last few years but it is always pre packed. I have bought books on coffee and have tried just about everything to make the delicious coffee my father used to make with an old hand coffee grinder when we lived in Marseille in France. At last I think I have a coffee nice enough to save the frustration of continuing that search!

Reviewer: (2019) Sylwia from Manchester   

I have been ordering coffee from The Love Of Coffee for the past year. I was never disappointed by the quality of coffee or service. I love every coffee I bought. Thank you.

Reviewer: (2019) U from NW   

Good /speedy service.

Reviewer: (2019) Nicholas from Hampshire   

Love the Monsoon Malibar Coffee. Best I’ve ever had, anywhere. Delivered quickly. Well done ‘theloveofcoffee’ people.

Reviewer: (2019) Howard from London   

I like monsoon malabar coffee and have tried and been disappointed with beans from multiple suppliers. I was interested to see if the beans from The Love of Coffee were better than my usual source (Waitrose AA beans). I followed the advice of previous reviewers and purchased beans with extra strong roast.

I was pleasantly surprised and would say that these are much better. Bold earthy flavor, smooth without acidity or bitterness. I recommend these and would purchase again.

Reviewer: (2018) Peter from Suffolk   

Excellent quality and choice of roast. Liked the very dark roast, but loved the dark roast. Will order again.

Reviewer: (2018) Doug from Wales   

Very prompt delivery. I have always enjoyed the coffee from Love of Coffee. I have never had any personal dealing s with the team there, I have always ordered online. My past experience with the coarse ground coffees I have ordered has always been very good.

Reviewer: (2018) Claire from Staffordshire   

Fantastic service, very helpful and love the coffee beans!

Reviewer: (2018) Robert from Hertfordshire   

A very smooth coffee indeed with no bitterness. I use it for flat white coffee and vary the strength depending on the time of day (I have an espresso machine) - full strength to start the day dropping to mild for an evening drink. This particular coffee is very well suited for espresso machines and if very 'moreish'.

Reviewer: (2018) John from Norfolk   

With relatives living in India, I have long enjoyed their coffee and your product is well up to standard, as is the service.

Reviewer: (2018) Michael from Plymouth   

Excellent service, wide choice of taste and flavours. Brilliant.

Reviewer: (2018) Leigh from Talybont   

Best coffees I have tasted, really fresh, will stick with you for all my coffee orders! Posted quick and customer service was excellent.

Reviewer: (2018) Sandra from Shropshire   

Amazing coffee in fantastic packaging, easy website to use and super delivery......we are a little addicted to your Indian Monsoon it gets you through the day and tastes divine.

Reviewer: (2018) Angela from Wakefield   

Lovely coffee! Fast delivery! Thank you.

Reviewer: (2018) Simon from Sheffield   

Coffee came on time, delicious and perfectly roasted.

Reviewer: (2018) Patrick from Lincoln   

Brought for my sons birthday present as he is wanting to try different ones he was very impressed thanks again sure I’ll be purchasing.

Reviewer: (2018) Ian from Billingham   

The Search is Over... we finally found the perfect Bean!!! After lots of searching tasting and failures, we found a perfect bean, and roast. It's now the bean of choice for all the staff and our go to bean.

Reviewer: (2018) Jackie from Carmarthenshire   

About half way through our order and marking each one out of ten. So far highest is 7 for Indian Monsoon Malabar. Great way to find a favourite. Still got Colombian to try and think this may be the one. Excellent service and wonderful choice.

Reviewer: (2018) Mike from Flintshire   

Excellent range of coffees at competitive prices. The taste notes are very helpful in deciding which coffee to purchase. Efficient delivery.

Reviewer: (2018) Robin from Warwickshire   

I have been buying my Coffee Beans from TLOC for at least two years and can confirm a 5 Star Review for Choice, Price, Delivery, Packaging, Quality, Freshness, Shelf Life and Customer Services. Not just on your 1st delivery but each and every time!

Reviewer: (2018) Pauline from North Wales   

Highly recommend these very flavourful coffee beans. I keep on coming back for more.

Reviewer: (2018) Gordon from Scotland   

I purchased three very different coffees for my wife, as she is the coffee connoisseur of the family. It is very difficult for me to give any star rating other than 5, for each of the coffees. The Indian Malabar, she says is just a fantastic first cup in the morning coffee, strong, smooth and sets you up for the day. Her view on the Viennese Blend is that this is an extremely smooth and silky coffee and can easily be consumed all day. With the Colombian Decaff, this is her absolute "go to" coffee in the evening, as she tries very hard to come off caffeine particularly later on at night. All in all therefore, an absolute winner with all three coffees, all different, all fantastic, and thanks again for your prompt and efficient delivery of the goods, particularly so close to Christmas.

Reviewer: (2018) Michael from Devon   

Great service and great Coffee.

Reviewer: (2017) Sue from Suffolk   

Tried this as part of a sample of four - what an amazing taste. Now my favourite coffee! Really pleased with my order and so good to be able to buy different types of ground. No more powdery coffee from the cafetiere!

Reviewer: (2017) Breige from Northern Ireland   

I ordered a few different coffees to try as I am a first time costumer, I'm not a lover of very strong coffees so I ordered the Colombian Decaf, this is an excellent tasting Decaf, next was the Indian monsoon Malabar also a very nice mild tasting coffee and very easy on the palate, I also ordered the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Rocko Mountain, personally this was my least favourite as I found this coffee to have a very strong after taste. The coffees came packed very well and within two days, excellent service and I will be ordering more coffees to try.

Reviewer: (2017) Kathryn from Acharacle   

The coffee beans and delivery are great.

Reviewer: (2017) Pauline from North Wales   

I have tried many variations of Monsoon Malabar and these beans roasted to Strong are the best of the lot. I would highly recommend these to any coffee drinker. Will be buying more.

Reviewer: (2017) Heather from Benbecula, Scotland   

Really gorgeous coffees. Brilliant fast service. Excellent. Thank you.

Reviewer: (2017) Linda from Surrey   

Great service, really quick delivery of simply fabulous tasty coffee - thank you.

Reviewer: (2017) Chris from Southend, Essex   

This is the first time I have used 'the love of coffee' and found their service and coffee impeccable. Firstly, the coffee. I was looking for something very strong this time and although some coffee sellers talk about strong coffee, most do not describe it as such and therefore I have tried many but not really found one to my taste. Until now. Here, the description was 'very strong' and very strong it was. Their no nonsense taste and strength descriptions were bang on. Fantastic coffee, packed fresh and tasting magnificent. The service was amazingly quick with the package arriving within 48 hrs and their email communication was excellent. I will continue to use 'the love of coffee' without exception. Thank you.
