After years of spending a fortune at cafes or constantly running out of overpriced pods, switching to Urban Brew was a game changer. Knowing I can make a genuinely good coffee at home every single morning has completely ruined other alternatives for me. The subscription takes all the hassle out of it as I never have to worry about adding coffee to… Read more

the shopping list, and it’s super easy to pause or adjust my order whenever I need to. Urban Brew’s customer service team has always been very responsive and friendly, and all the packaging is eco-friendly. Honestly, 2.5 years in, I haven't found a single downside!

Been a client for few years now. Absolutely in love with their coffee and also their concept and branding. It's tasty but also stylish and those little messages are the best. Show reply

Wouldn't change anything, apart from ordering more chocolate pods in the winter time. High quality products, easy to update or amend, reliable and tasty as hell. Show reply

I thought it was an Urban Myth that Urban Brew Coffee Pods were delicious ;-) There's three of us that love Intensity 10. First time I've smelt the aroma of coffee pods wafting through my house. So fresh! Show reply

Well, my bags are packed. Now I just need to wait for the call from one of the amazing staff at Urban Brew. Hot or cold, I’m prepared!! The double shot pods are the best - strong flavour, good caffeine kick without any bitterness. This company have all bases covered. Great job guys!!! Show reply

Ive been doing one off manual orders of the compostable pods and im so happy! Recently I ran out and I got some other pods until my Urban order arrived - the coffee was not as good as Urban Brew so I’ve now signed up to a subscription So No More Running Out of my Precious Pods! Legendary Customer Service Too…. When You Know You Know! Show details ·  1

I’ve ditched my daily take away coffee as i truly can taste Urban Brew’s No14 is just as good or even better than my local cafe. Toby’s tram prompt action to despatch my order is outstanding. … and yes, I do open the coffee pod box ‘like a pro’. Xxx Show reply

I queried my first order as to strength of coffee and received a very prompt reply with suggestions and feedback. Really like my second order which has just arrived. Feel a lot better dealing with a smaller more personal approach to coffee. Danny Show reply

I bought these pods late last year, I used the rest of my nespresso pods on a nespresso machine I had owned for 5+ years with no problems. Days after starting to use the urban brew pods, my machine stopped working. After contacting Nespresso, they stated that their machine is not compatible with any other pods despite what other suppliers may say… Read more

on their website.

If you read the terms and conditions on the website, Urban Brew say the information provided is inaccurate and you need do your own research into the compatibility of their product. It's just misleading information and has cost me nearly $500 to get a new machine.

I love Urban Brew coffee pods..! I had been buying pods from the supermarket and becoming increasingly disappointed. Urban Brew was popping up on Facebook and after reading reviews, I crossed my fingers and ordered some pods. I now subscribe to Urban Brew. No crossed fingers needed and definitely never disappoints.

I'm a big fan of the Long Shot. Since buying a Nespresso in July I've tried a few different long shot pods from different suppliers. The Urban Brew Long Shot in my opinion is the standout. It takes patience, the coffee takes longer to pour than that other brand, but the wait is absolutely worth it and delivers a more satisfying coffee with a better-formed crema. Show details ·  1
