Top 5 Picks for Coffee Gifts
Best Gift Overall for Coffee Lovers
OXO Conical Burr Coffee Grinder
This Burr Coffee Grinder is the best overall gift idea for a coffee lover because it gives them the opportunity to grind their own coffee beans for peak freshness (freshly ground coffee always tastes better than coffee that was ground and put in a bag 3 weeks ago).
Having your own coffee grinder also opens up lots of different opportunities because you can switch between various types of brewing methods that require different grind consistencies, such as French Press, pour-over, drip or espresso.
Best for Cold Brew Drinkers
This cold brew maker and carafe hybrid is the perfect gift for anyone who loves to drink cold brew coffee. It’s simple to use and convenient for on-the-go people who need to bring a coffee with them wherever they go. Simply add coarse grounds and a slow, circular pour of cold, filtered water to the top brewing chamber and let it steep for 12 to 18 hours at room temperature. Then, press the button to let the cold brew drip down and fill the insulated steel carafe. Add ice, your favorite milk and sweetener, and the leak-proof lid. The insulated steel carafe keeps coffee cold for up to 24 hours.
Best Subscription Box
A coffee box subscription is a great present for coffee connoisseur who know what they like, but it’s also perfect for anyone newer to coffee who wants to try different roasts and get a feel for what they enjoy.
Choose the type of coffee roast you want, what size grind, and how often you want the coffee to be delivered!
Best Housewarming Gift

Complete with a French Press and 8 bags of coffee from around the world, this coffee lover’s gift box makes an excellent housewarming gift. It has lots of variety in terms of coffee roasts and tasting notes, and I love that all the coffee is organic and Fair Trade.
Most affordable & best gift for a friend
Coffee House Scented Candle | photo by Etsy seller PoppyRoseCandleCo | $22
I can tell you from personal experience: This candle smells unreal good and is the perfect gift idea for anyone who is passionate about coffee.
This simple yet deliciously scented gift is a soy and coconut wax blend. With lead-free cotton wicks and phthalate-free fragrance oils, this is much cleaner burning candle than others.
It really does smell like walking into your favorite coffee shop, making it a fun gift idea for a friend, roommate, co-worker or teacher.

27 Amazing Gift Ideas for Coffee Lovers
1. Gooseneck Kettle
This gooseneck kettle is one of the best on the market right now. It’s one of the most perfect gift ideas for any coffee lover for a number of reasons.
- It offers 5 precise heating temperatures, so you won’t burn your coffee (or tea). The pre-set temperatures are set for coffee, white tea, green tea, oolong tea, or black tea/boiling temperature.
- For people (like myself) who tend to forget they even started heating water to begin with, this gooseneck kettle comes with a “Hold Temperature” mode that will keep your water at the selected temperature for one hour.
- The precision pour is optimized for the perfect coffee pour over flow rate, making it the perfect gift for coffee drinkers.
- Using a kettle will save you lots of time because it brings the water to the perfect heat in just 3-5 minutes. No more waiting forever and walking back and forth to the stove or microwave to see if your water is hot enough yet.
Other features of the gooseneck kettle include a leak-proof design, auto shut-off, and food-grade stainless steel to preserve the purest taste of the water.
We bought a gooseneck kettle for my mom last Christmas, and she loves it!
2. Personalized Floral Mug
Maybe a plain old coffee mug isn’t the gift you’re going for, but a personalized coffee mug that’s this aesthetic? C’mon. You know she’ll love it.
Pick from three different types of flower designs (bouquet, two flowers, or a single daisy), and for just a little extra you can get the mug personalized with her name!
3. Single Serve French Press
French Press coffee is one of my favorite ways to drink my daily java. If the person you’re shopping for doesn’t own a French Press yet, then this is a great gift idea that they’ll actually use.
This French Press is beautifully aesthetic, will keep your coffee hot 4x longer than a glass french press thanks to the double-wall insulation, and keeps out coffee grinds and silt due to the dual-filter screen.
Also, how cute is that wooden handle? Love.
Another benefit to this French Press is that it comes with a 1-year free replacement guarantee! Get it in black, pink, gray, blue, and titanium gray.
4. Coffee Subscription Box
Okay, so I’m admittedly a bit of a subscription box addict. But I truly believe that a coffee subscription box is one of the very best gift ideas for coffee lovers.
I’ve rounded up a few of my top coffee box picks, but the general gist is this: You fill out a few preferences for what your coffee drinker friend prefers, choose how frequently you want the company to send coffee, and they deliver the coffee straight to his or her house.
Bean Box
Bean Box offers a tasting subscription that delivers 4 expertly-curated coffees every month (for a total of 16-24 cups a month). Alternatively, they offer a coffee bag subscription that serves up expertly-curated coffee in a larger size, so you never run out of your favorite.
Atlas Coffee Club
If you need a gift idea for a more adventurous coffee drinker, then Atlas Coffee Club is the perfect option. Atlas Coffee Club features single origin coffee from all over the world. From Burundi, Ecuador, Tanzania, Colombia and beyond, your friend will get to try a new coffee from a different country with each box.
Angels’ Cup
Angels’ Cup offers three main subscriptions to choose from.
The first option, called “All Stars,” lets the coffee community on staff choose the best of the best from recent coffee shipments to include in that month’s box. The “Cupping Flight” option offers tons of variety in small sample sizes to help coffee drinkers discover what they love! I personally love the Cupping Flight option the best if you’re getting it for someone else.
And finally, the “Black Box” option delivers enough high quality coffee to brew 16 cups of coffee, with the roast based on your preferences.
MistoBox
MistoBox Coffee Subscription is very straightforward, but still offers opportunities to discover fresh new coffee every month.
Simply fill out your coffee roast preferences or browse through the site’s “Brewque” to discover new coffee. Each coffee is fresh-roasted for you by an award-winning roaster right before being mailed out, to ensure peak freshness. Then, a 12 oz bag of coffee will be delivered to you (or your friend’s house) however frequently you request.
5. Espresso Machine
Why is an espresso machine the absolute perfect gift idea for a coffee lover? Because owning one’s gonna save your latte-drinking friend a TON of money.
Story time: I have a latte weakness, and I was buying lattes at least 4 days a week. Considering a latte is about $5 and that my oat milk substitute cost an extra $1 usually, I was spending $6 four times a week.
For my math whizzes out there, that’s $24 I was spending every week on coffee. Then for Christmas, my boyfriend and I got an espresso maker–two of them, to be precise. (His mom and my mom think alike, apparently! Definitely not mad about having two espresso makers though 😏)
Now, I don’t have to spend money on expensive lattes, unless I’m really really craving one of the amazing lattes offered by my favorite San Diego coffee shops.
You can get an incredible espresso machine for your friend or family member for around $100, like this one. This espresso maker features:
- Temp control for both water and any milk you’re frothing;
- 15 bar professional Italian pump (trust me, you don’t want anything else if you want a true espresso maker);
- And a milk frothing wand.
Our automatic espresso maker is very similar to the one I linked, but we also have a manual press espresso maker called the Flair that’s perfect for camping. It doesn’t require electricity and while it does cost over $100, it makes such high quality espresso that it’s absolutely worth it.
6. Hot or Cold Milk Frother
Milk frothers make a great gift for anyone who prefers their coffee with milk, or who likes making lattes.
Having a good milk steamer can save you a lot of time. Instead of putting milk in a pan on the stove or in the microwave and waiting for it to heat up, it’s ready in minutes.
Plus, an automatic steamer means no hassle of messing around with a steaming wand, or hoping that you get your milk hot enough without actually burning it. ‘Cause burnt milk in a latte is nasty 😞
I suggest choosing a milk frother that can steam milk to make it hot and frothy, or froth cold milk for a delightful cold foam.
If you want to invest in a top-notch milk frother, the Breville frother is a great option.
For those looking for a cheaper alternative, this milk frother is also a good choice.
7. Handheld Milk Frother
I just bought this exact milk frother in the color “cotton candy”, and I love it!
Our espresso machine does have a steam wand, so I didn’t need something to heat the milk, but I did need something to whisk my coffee ingredients into frothy perfection.
This frother mixes up my coffee, milk and sweetening ingredients deliciously.
I also like to use it to make the Dalgona coffee that went viral recently. If you haven’t heard about it yet, Dalgona coffee is a whipped coffee drink that’s made by whisking together instant coffee, sugar, and water until it’s thick and fluffy, then adding ice and milk for a delicious coffee drink.
You can make the Dalgona coffee by hand, but let me tell ya. The handheld frother makes it way, way easier. And requires a lot less bicep/tricep effort.
8. Cold Brew Coffee Maker and Carafe
Cold brew is often just as expensive as a latte, so if you need gift ideas for a coffee drinker who loves cold brew, then a cold brew maker is a must.
This home cold brew maker is simple to use and for just $40, it’s a worthwhile investment.
To use, simply add coarse coffee grounds and cold filtered water to the top brewer, then let it steep 12-18 hours at room temperature.
Then, just press the button and let gravity fill the insulated steel carafe. Add ice, your favorite milk and sweetener, and the leak-proof lid. Voila! The perfect cold brew made at home. Anything that helps you elevate the home coffee experience makes great gift ideas for coffee lovers.
9. Coffee Bean or Grinds Storage
Get your coffee drinking friend the perfect jar to hold their coffee beans or coffee grinds to keep the taste fresh as long as possible!
This one comes with an airtight black metal lid, and comes in sizes 48 oz, 64 oz, or 96 oz. With cute aesthetic labels, this is the perfect gift idea for coffee lovers.
10. Bourbon Infused Coffee Beans
Okay, so bourbon infused coffee beans might be a bit of an acquired taste, but if your coffee drinking friend has a taste for both bourbon and coffee, what could go wrong with this gift?
These 100% Arabica beans are infused in small batches with just a touch of bourbon, to create a unique and delicious flavor.
11. Nitro Cold Brew Maker
Although this is one of the most expensive thing on my list of gift ideas for coffee drinkers, I couldn’t pass this one up.
My boyfriend drinks nitro cold brew like it’s water, and if you know a nitro cold brew addict too, then this is the perfect gift.
To make delicious, creamy cold brew with this nifty device, simply fill the bag with coffee grounds, add cold, filtered water, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, just charge, shake, pour, and enjoy a perfectly crafted, smooth nitro cold brew.
If your coffee drinker buys nitro cold brew at $5 just 3 times a week, that equals $15 a week, which is $60 a month. Long math story short, this bad boy will pay for itself in about 4 months.
And since I’m guessing your giftee plans on drinking cold brew for a lot longer than that, this might just be worth the investment.
12. Coffee Grinder
A coffee grinder is any coffee drinker’s best friend, truly. It gives them the chance to play around with different types of coffee and discover what they enjoy best.
From French Press to pour-overs, and espresso to cold brew, the coffee world is your oyster once you have a good grinder.
But, a good grinder for under $200 is hard to come by.
So, when I was recently reading an article about the best coffee grinders, it led me to decide that this coffee grinder would be the best bang for just about anyone’s buck.
This burr grinder provides great grind consistency while still being in a fair price range. Play around with 15 different grind settings, plus micro settings, to make the perfect coffee grinds for whatever type of coffee you’re brewin’.
13. Personalized Coffee Stencil
Latte art is a tricky business, so coffee stencils are a fun gift idea for coffee lovers because they offer an easy, yet creative alternative.
Just hold the stencil above your latte and sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, pumpkin spice or cocoa powder over it to let the message fall right onto your coffee!
Get it personalized to say anything you want to your coffee drinking pal, and they’re sure to love it.
14. Coffee Wall Art
While this wall art isn’t something you can taste, it’s so pretty and unique looking that it’d make a fabulous gift for anyone who loves coffee.
I love that it’s handmade and comes in 3 different sizes, so you can pick whatever would work best in your friend’s or loved one’s home.
15. Coffee Scented Candle

Candles might not be the first thing to come to your mind when shopping for a coffee lover, but hear me out.
Like any coffee drinker will tell you, nothing smells better to us addicts than freshly brewed java. Some of us even take a big whiff of coffee right out of the bag before brewing *raises hand*.
So, since it’s unrealistic to be making a new cup of coffee every couple hours to keep our homes smelling like a coffee shop, this candle is the best alternative.
The scent notes are:
- Top: Caramel Creme, Mocha Latte
- Middle: Kona Coffee, Sugar Cane
- Base: Rum Cream, Citron Peel
Basically, all the most delicious coffee scents you can imagine are combined in this one, beautifully aesthetic amber candle jar. They’re gonna love it, trust me.
16. Coffee Graphic T-Shirt
Sometimes, you need a fun and creative way to tell the world just how much you truly love your coffee.
And this retro style graphic T-shirt basically screams it.
This cute T is a great gift idea for any coffee snob. (It’s okay, you can call us snobs. We already know.)
17. Coffee Stirrer
Cream and sugar, anyone? This coffee stirrer is super cute and a fun little utensil for any coffee drinker to mix together their coffee and creamer in the mornings. Or afternoons. Or evenings. Hey, I’m not here to judge.
This stirrer has a flat surface so the cream won’t pool up and stain, and according to people who bought this, it has a nice weight to it.
18. Coffee Bar Sign
I love this metal hanging sign to add to anyone’s home coffee bar area! Nowadays, people are creating their own little home cafes, and they’re proud to show it. This handmade “Coffee Bar” sign is the perfect touch to personalize your home bar and make it feel special.
19. Customized Coffee Scoop & Clip
We love a multifunctional utensil, and this coffee scoop-clip hybrid is both useful and adorable! Get it customized with your friend’s or partner’s name, and choose from gold, rose gold, black or silver colors.
These are so useful because you can scoop your coffee grounds out, then clip the bag when you’re done to help retain optimal freshness for your coffee grinds.
20. Personalized Coffee Tumbler
You really can’t go wrong with gifting an insulated coffee tumbler to a caffeine addict. We basically never leave the house without a coffee to-go, and this tumbler is perfect for keeping a coffee hot or cold for hours.
It holds 16 oz of liquid, and the best part is that you can customize it! Add the name and font style of your choosing, and even a logo! This seller got great reviews for being good with communicating and pinpointing the exact design you want.
Choose from black, white, graphite, sand, matte rose, robin’s egg, forest green, matte red, navy blue, teak wood, or white marble.
21. Pastel Coffee Pour Over Set
Pour over coffee is another one of my favorite styles of coffee. It’s so satisfying to pour the hot water in a circular pattern over the coffee grinds and watch the coffee drip into the carafe.
This pour-over set is particularly beautiful, and comes with a brewer in pastel pink, green, or clear. The carafe comes clear regardless of which color you choose.
A handmade gift like this feels and looks special, so your coffee companion is sure to feel like you went above and beyond with this one. Chemex coffee makers are great, but this pour-over is the clear winner here in terms of aesthetics.
22. Coffee Lover’s Gift Box
Want to make a big statement? Coffee Gift Boxes are perfect gift ideas for coffee lovers. This shows any coffee addict that 1) you love them and 2) you GET them. You know they love coffee–lots of it and all kinds, too.
This gift box includes eight 2oz bags of a variety of coffee types, plus a French Press. That’s a lot of opportunity for your giftee to discover what kinds of coffee they like the best, and to simply enjoy a good variety of Fair Trade coffees from Split Oak Coffee Roasters.
Side note: This also makes an amazing housewarming gift!
23. Iced Coffee Rainbow Glass
I love this rainbow iced coffee glass! It’s so cute, and the see-through colors of the rainbow just make me happy.
Get the glass mug by itself, or get it with the bamboo lid and metal straw add-on. It holds 16 oz of liquid, and is hand painted with transparent paint.
The jars have little dents and air bubbles for a pretty, yet rustic look.
24. Japanese Ceramic Coffee Drip And Jug
Like I’ve already mentioned, pour over coffees are super delicious and the process of making the coffee itself is so satisfying.
This handmade ceramic pour over/drip set holds heat really well, so the water and freshly brewed coffee will stay at a consistent heat throughout the brewing process.
25. Turkish Espresso Cup Set
Some people enjoy full cups of coffee, while others like to sip an espresso instead. I love these Turkish espresso cups for anyone who likes to drink a double shot in the morning.
The best part about this set is you can get all matching cups, or you can pick 6 out of the 10 patterned cups for a uniquely mismatched set!
26. Coffee Mat
If you’re looking for an inexpensive gift idea for a coffee lover, a burlap mat for their coffee making area is a great option. And this “Coffee Til Wine” burlap mat is perfect for coffee drinkers and wine lovers alike.
Quick note: This shop offers lots of cute coffee themed burlap mats, just like this one! So if wine isn’t your thing, go check out the shop for alternatives.
Plus, the mats are sealed with a stain repellent to keep it clean from coffee spills, although you may need to spot clean from time to time.
Overall, this is a great gift idea for a coffee addict or anyone who wants to make their home coffee bar feel unique.
27. Coffee Mug Holder
If your friend or loved one is a coffee addict, I can basically guarantee they’ve got at least a dozen super cool mugs that they LOVE, buuuut they might not have anywhere to display them.
I mean, what’s the point in owning two cat mugs, a polka dot mug, a Gilmore Girl’s “Luke’s Diner” mug, and all those other coffee mugs if they just hide away in a cupboard?
A coffee mug holder that allows you to proudly display your addiction to collection of coffee mugs is one of the best gifts you can give a coffee lover.
