What Our Customers Say...

Looking for a coffee supplier for our new venture at Meadgate Farm Shop seemed overwhelming at first, however after being referred to Beans and Machines by The King William, we got in touch with Rob who has been nothing but accommodating, welcoming and friendly ever since.

From our first coffee tasting experience to free loaning us a coffee grinder when ours didn't work, we cannot fault them! We have nothing but compliments for the Fairtrade Organic Honduras Coffee Beans we opted for. From the service to the product & everything in between, Beans and Machines are top notch!

I would just like to say how much my customers love your coffee, it's so smooth and a friend of mine who owned a coffee business won't drink anything else, she loves it. A big thank you to Rob and the Team, nothing is too much trouble and they are always ready to help.

I have used Beans and Machines since their inception in 2011 and have always been delighted with their friendly customer service, prompt delivery and quality ingredients. Rob's wealth of knowledge goes a long way in supporting our busy ever expanding school. They are a great company and deserve all the credit they receive. Oh and don’t forget the coffee is exceptional. 10/10 from me.
