A Site Dedicated To All Things Coffee
Here in the offices of AboutCoffee(s).com,we use a one cup coffee maker from Keurig. As a result, someone as to be responsible for ordering the K-Cups. We order our K-Cups online and being coffee fanatics, we are always looking for a better selection or better pricing. We’ve isolated the best of the best and rated the top contenders for variety, cost of shipping, etc.
You can purchase Timothy’s coffee K-cups online as well as in their retail stores, and you can check their website for store locations nearest you. Our closest local retail location had a nice selection of k-cups right there on the shelves. If you prefer to order online, there is free shipping on orders over $64. Shipping is very quick, however they only sell Timothy’s coffees, with the exception of the Kahlua K-Cups. $15.75 for a box of 24.
Free shipping with the order of 4 boxes of coffee k-cups. Ships out of Quebec. Also only sells their own brand of K-Cups, but the sheer variety of flavours makes up for the lack of brand selection. Van Houtte also sells online for $15.75 for a box of 24.
RMC carries Green Mountain and Newmans Own coffee K-Cups in a wide variety of types and flavours, including K-cup teas and hot chocolate. Shipping rates within Canada are based on order total, with orders over $61.96 free. $16.95 per box of 24.
Cafe Breville refers to themselves as Canada’s official Keurig store. Featuring blends from Caribou, Coffee People, Diedrich, Gloria Jeans, Green Mountain, Timothy’s, Tully’s and Van Houtte. Curiosly, Cafe Breville sells boxes of 18 for $11.99. Unfortunately at present time, their website seems to be giving them some trouble. Looks nice though.
Tweed and Hickory is currently offering flat rate shipping of $9.99 per order, or free shipping on orders over $150.00. They also have many retail locations in Canada, if you don’t want to pay for shipping. They sell a box of k-cups for $13.95 for 24 nd offer many varieties such as Timothy’s, Van Houtte, Emeril’s, and Bigelow.
Clearly the winner here is Tweed and Hickory. They are the cheapest per box of 24 and offer a greater selection of k-cup brands. Their website is well designed and functional. You can purchase Timothy’s as well as Van Houtte from the same retailer, and save almost $2.00 per box.
Runner up would have to be Cafe Breville because they score points for variety, and the price of a box of 18 coffee k cups was a bit more agreeable, especially if you like to mix up your coffee flavors. Of course they lost some points with this reviewer due to some website issues, hopefully that is temporary.
Please note that we are in no way affiliated with any of the companies mentioned in the article.

I recently bought a one cup coffee maker and had no idea it would be so difficult to buy k-cups! I’m glad I found your site, and I’ve already purchased from T&H. Thanks for going to all the trouble. Keep up the good work and I will be back soon!
