Great Coffee, great prices!

I’ve been buying coffee from redber for over 4 years now, the coffee is consistently great quality and they always have a great selection of single origin coffees to choose from.
My orders have always been roasted within a couple of days of delivery. On top of this the prices are really reasonable.
Great company!

Never disappoints – fantastic coffee


We’ve had a coffee subscription with Redber for several years now and have always been very happy with their service. The coffee is consistently fresh, great quality, and delivered on time. You can really tell they care about what they do.

Customer service has always been helpful and friendly whenever we’ve needed anything. It’s nice to support a roastery that’s reliable and passionate about coffee. Highly recommended.

the coffee is always reliable and there's a wide variety of beans. We order to pick up and it's always ready within a couple of days- other people have it posted to them. There's other stuff to buy too, cups and equipment of all sorts. Occasionally there's a sale, too!

Superb selection of Single Origin Beans at a great price

Somehow I've ended up as the bean-orderer for our small office. I've been purchasing our supplies from Redber for nearly 4 years now and in all that time, my colleagues haven't had a single complaint!
Easy to order, fast delivery and plenty of notifications through the process. In too many orders to mention, only one small mistake where one of the bags was sent as beans rather than ground as requested. A problem they immediately rectified! That's the sort of service that will keep me coming back again and again.

Hi Paul. Just checking that you ordered from us? We are Redber.co.uk and we have no record of any order from anyone apparent since July 2025, nor any evident email at all from anyone with your names, at any time, ever. If it is us that you ordered from, please email us at admin@redber.co.uk, with your order number, so that we can assist you.

If it not us, then please have the courtesy to remove this review.

Hi Paul
Thank you for the information. This has helped immensely for us to assist you. Unfortunately, this is a DPD delivery issue, not a Redber related issue. The DPD tracking number and delivery instructions are not in our control. This notwithstanding, we have been trying to resolve this with DPD on your behalf. We could make progress if you could please reply to our proposed solution?

Arrogant Service: They told me to "SIFT" my own coffee to fix their bad roast!

I purchased 1kg of Guatemala Antigua directly from Redber's website (Order #378085), specifically hoping to avoid the stale coffee issues I experienced with other sellers on Amazon. I even emailed them beforehand to ensure freshness.

What I received was a bag full of beans mixed with an excessive amount of chaff (silverskin/husks). The coffee tasted extremely bitter, woody, and papery—completely undrinkable.

When I contacted their customer service with photos of the chaff-filled grounds, their response was absolutely shocking and condescending.

They lectured me: Instead of addressing the quality issue, they tried to "educate" me on the fact that they are not Amazon, completely missing the point of my previous email context.

They admitted the defect: They explicitly admitted in writing that the chaff adds a "papery or woody flavour" to the coffee.

THE INSULT: Their solution? They told me to "sift or shake the grounds" myself to remove the chaff!

I paid for roasted coffee beans, not a "Do It Yourself" kit. Telling a customer to manually sift 1kg of coffee at home to get rid of your production mess is the most unprofessional advice I have ever heard from a roaster.

If you want to buy coffee and then spend hours sifting it like you are mining for gold just to make it drinkable, go ahead. Otherwise, stay away.

Pros: None. Cons: Arrogant support, poor quality control, woody taste.

UPDATE 25.11.2025 (ANSWER TO REDBER):

​Thank you for the detailed lecture on static electricity and grind consistency. However, by focusing entirely on the "visuals" and "physics" of the grind, you are deliberately ignoring the CORE COMPLAINT of my review:
​The complete lack of Aroma and Taste.
​You claim this coffee was roasted just 3-4 days before I received it. As any coffee roaster knows, a premium bean roasted that recently should have a powerful, room-filling aroma upon opening and grinding.
This coffee had ZERO aroma and ZERO taste. It tasted flat, woody, and dead.
​You can argue about "static clinging to the lid" all day to defend the visuals, but photos cannot convey flavor. A coffee that looks "clean" in a photo can still be "baked" (flavour killed during roasting) or made from old green beans.
​Stop hiding behind technical excuses about "static" to invalidate my experience. I don't need "brewing advice"—I know how to brew coffee. I need a product that actually tastes like "Premium Guatemala Antigua," not like cardboard.
​Your refusal to address the sensory defect (lack of flavor) is the real issue here.

Hi,

Thank you for getting in touch and for sharing your concerns — we’re genuinely sorry that the experience has been frustrating, and we appreciate the opportunity to look into this properly.

After reviewing your photos again and revisiting the details of your order, we’d like to clarify a few points so we can avoid any misunderstanding.

You placed your order directly on our website (www.redber.co.uk), and as shown on the bag, the coffee you received was roasted and packed by us. We are not connected in any way to Brown Bear, and we only became aware of that brand through your message. You did receive a freshly roasted batch of our Premium Guatemala Antigua as ordered.

Thank you for sending through the photos. Looking closely at your photo of the whole beans, we can see they are clean and free from chaff. We initially struggled to understand the issue, as the beans themselves look exactly as they should.

From your photo of the coarse grind (which appears to be for cafetière), what we are seeing is something very common with freshly roasted coffee — static from your grinder can attract the lighter, smaller particles of the grind. These cling to the sides and lid of the container, which is completely normal and expected, especially with coarse grinding.

If you compare online photos of freshly coarse-ground coffee, you’ll notice the same lighter flecks in the grounds. You won’t see them in espresso grinds because the grind size is much finer and static behaves differently at that level.

We hope this helps clear up the misunderstanding. However, we absolutely understand how this may have caused confusion, and we’re sorry if our previous explanation came across as anything other than helpful.

If you have any further questions or would like brewing advice for this coffee, we’re more than happy to assist.

Average to

Good to very good coffee beans but their lackadaisical approach means it’s time to move on. Price is average to high.They advertise 2-3 days delivery but always more than a week(+10days), doesn’t matter what day you order. Last time one bag was broken with coffee beans everywhere, packed that way. Be very apprehensive, all that I known that used them have moved on.

Hi Daniel. Thank you for complementing our coffee - that is what we are known for.
We are always disappointed to lose a customer, especially where we have consistently roasted and dispatched their coffee on time.
Unfortunately, this is a delivery issue, not a Redber related issue. We use two of the biggest delivery partners in the UK. No delivery company in UK guarantees its delivery times. That is what we stipulate on our website.
In any event, we sincerely hope that the delivery window at your new fresh roasted (check that roast date!) coffee provider is worth the change.
