Coffee is something most of us start our day with, which is why coffee advent calendars – whether containing Nespresso machine capsules or whole bean, ground, instant or pour-over coffee – have become one of the most popular ways to countdown to Christmas. We're inching closer to December 1, so you've got to get your shopping on this one done, stat. Coffee advents have grown in popularity over the last few years, and unlike other types of advent calendars, where each daily treat might be hit and miss, a coffee lover will truly appreciate (and drink) every single day's surprise. It's basically a coffee tasting menu with a special perk for each day in the run up to Christmas. What's not to love about that?
- Most popular coffee advent calendar: Nespresso Vertuo Advent Calendar Festive, £43 / $55
- Best pour-over coffee advent calendar: The Brew Company's Coffee Advent Calendar, £58.95 / $75.95
- Most eco-friendly coffee advent calendar: Grind Coffee Advent Calendar 2025 with compostable capsules, £29.95
- Best instant coffee advent calendar: Beanies coffee advent calendar, £25
The price of these advent calendars is great too, as it can often equate to less than your usual takeaway coffee a day. But this way, you get to give different blends and types a try. There's fun ones, serious coffee ones and everything else in between.
The best coffee advent calendars for 2025 - how we chose
There are so many techniques and tools to make the perfect coffee, from drip coffee to French press and espresso machines so the only thing missing is discovering which coffee beans and blends are your favourites. And that's where coffee advent calendars come in.
Coffee advent calendars are the perfect way to try out a variety of coffee types, making them a great gift for yourself, friends, family or co-workers during the festive season. The hard part was choosing which coffee advent calendars to include in this Christmas 2025 edit, so here's what was taken into consideration:
- Verified reviews: While we haven't been able to test each advent calendar personally (unfortunately!), we've combed through hundreds of reviews to find out what shoppers love about each calendar, and what they don't.
- Personal experience: Coffee advents are on our yearly shopping list and there are certain brands that we know and love, including Nespresso, that we know are worth the money.
- HELLO! readers' past favourites: Now that we're on the fifth Christmas season as an expert shopper for HELLO! we know what our readers love - and what they don't. If a coffee advent calendar has proven to be one that our readers have loved in the past, we've taken that into consideration for a placement in the new 2025 list.
- Price: While we all love to splurge during advent calendar season, some budgets are a bit more modest than others, so we've tried to include coffee advent calendars for various price points.
- Coffee type: Everyone has a different way they love their coffee, so we've made sure to include a variety of coffee types, from artisanal to flavoured instant, whole bean to capsule.
- Trusted brands: We took into consideration the brands and retailers, leaning toward the most trusted.
