# Roasters who deliver quickly



## 2971 (May 7, 2012)

It's Friday morning, and I am close to running out of beans. I have a Hasbean subscription, and there's a good chance I will get my Hasbean bag on Saturday.

Even so, as a backup, I'm thinking to order some more beans from somewhere else. Nice to have a selection anyway.

Apart from Hasbean, where else might deliver me beans on Saturday?

I can't answer your question specifically about roasters who may be able to deliver by Saturday but, in case of emergency, Waitrose have 200 g bags of Union beans for £3.33 at the moment. I picked up a bag of Revelation yesterday with a roast date of 19th December

Not mail order but I get beans from a local coffee shop if I'm running low. That way I don't need to worry about a slow delivery & they're already rested.

Coffee Compass are very fast. Each time I've ordered from them I've received my beans pretty much the next day if ordered early enough.

Depends, where are you based?

If I'm running low I may call in my local (in York) coffee roasters if I've got exact change or order online outside on my phone. Not really supposed to but I don't mind waiting if they're busy.

Other than that, if I can get to a coffee shop they often have fresh beans on sale. Last time I nabbed the last bag of Red Brick from a coffee shop in York that was rested, just before they put the fresh stock out from the latest roast.

I also freeze beans and have a few bags I can use if needs be.

I'm in north Kent, which is either in London, or just outside London, depending on who you ask. Last time this happened, I jumped on a train to London Bridge and bought a bag from Monmouth, before realising I don't really like Monmouth's beans.

If you can get to East Croydon, Smoothbean round the corner from the station do Volcano which is very nice. Good cakes too.

Wicked, thank you! That's about a 20 minute bus ride from me. If Coffee Compass don't sort me out tomorrow, and the Hasbean doesn't arrive, I might pop down there.

Probably best check their website first. Not sure they're open weekends.

I'm hoping I won't need to tomorrow, but for future reference, where is this?

Slightly off topic, but I'm interested, what don't you like about Monmouth's beans? I can't say I'm that taken with their espresso blend, but they have so much else on offer on the lighter roasted side of things, that it's been rare not to find something I like as an espresso after trying say 3 with them. Even though the stuff they have ready to taste is all filter, they're usually pretty good about making them up for espresso, and will steer you clear of the stuff that's a bit more astringent as espresso (some of the stuff that's lovely as filter is horrid as espresso!)
