Chamberlain Coffee earns largely positive reviews for tasty, smooth beans, standout cold brew bags, convenient instant sticks, and beginner-friendly matcha, though opinions split on canned oat-milk lattes and some blends that taste weak or unmemorable. The brand is praised for playful, giftable packaging and variety (Fluffy Lamb, Social Dog, Early Bird, Sleepy Sloth), but critiques include inconsistent strength, flavored notes that don’t come through, clumpy matcha, and durability issues with coated metal straws.

I found this coffee pretty smooth and very aromatic. I absolutely love the cute packaging. And the products are so easy and convenient! Definitely would recommend this to those with busy mornings so they can get their daily boost of Java to start their day!
This is GOOD coffee! I love the sachets you can simply put in water like tea, so convenient & all of the different blends taste so good!
Chamberlain Coffee is really good, but some of the flavors are a bit too strong for my taste. The coffee is smooth and high quality, but I found a few blends to be a bit intense. It’s definitely a great option if you like bolder flavors, but for me, it’s just a little too much. Still a solid choice overall!
First, let me say that I did not try Chamberlain Coffee because of the influencer that backs it. (Or maybe built the brand?) I have no idea who she is -- like, wouldn't recognize her face if I saw it. I tried Chamberlain because I'm friends with a gal that works on their design/ads, and I'm always game to try new DTC coffees. That being said - I was incredibly pleasantly surprised with Chamberlain! I ended up buying it on the regular for my team at my office. I work at a startup, so I'm pretty much always time-strapped, and I'm all for convenience-based coffee items that I can make within minutes. Chamberlain's coffee bags are, in my opinion, one of the best products in the coffee market in general. I don't know why some of the big brands aren't doing this too. You literally pour a cup water and put the coffee bag in like a teabag, and it tastes like fresh coffee. I was worried it would be watered-down tasting, but it's actually VERY flavorful - better than most Keurig coffees, in my opinion. Highly recommend Chamberlain's single serve coffee bags - I especially love the yellow one (Early Bird), which is like a breakfast-y medium roast!
It's overpriced coffee but it's at least above average in quality. I only tried the social dog medium roast and it was decent, but for the price I rather stick to my usual Canyon Coffee.
I'm only reviewing about their cold brew bags. As a new mom, I was looking for ways to make my morning coffee quickly, but still have high quality in the taste. When I read about these bags (sort of like large tea bags), I wanted to give it a try. I got the Sleepy Sloth Blend and Family Blend. These aren't just for cold brew, though- I make a hot cup of coffee in the morning with these and then after I steep that, I use the same bag to make a cup of cold brew for the afternoon or for the next day. It feels like SUCH a waste to just use this one time. Getting to use it for two cups makes it feels less wasteful to me. The taste of Family Blend was so-so (I'd definitely try one of the other caffeinated varieties next time) but the Sleepy Sloth has a wonderful taste and flavor. Definitely would purchase that again.

With each purchase, they only give you 10 bags- of course, you can buy more boxes and get a discount, but I do wish it was easier to buy bulk.
A little overpriced, overhyped, and underwhelming but better that a lot of other chains.
If you’re not a coffee person, you won’t like this, it is so strong! But honestly, their marketing and the brand itself is something I love. How they really embrace and embed Emma and her favorites along with her vibes are woven into the company and make it an experience!
I wanted to love this more than I actually did. I tried the individual sachets and thought the coffee was quite weak. I played around with the time I left the bag in but wasn't seeing much improvement. The taste was pretty good though. I could see the bean bags themselves being better!
I really love this brand for gifts! They have so many cute designs and kinds of coffee that I always find something that feels personal to the person I’m gifting it to. Like they have one that has a busy family theme, a night owl theme, or one with a cat so I always have different options. And they have variety packs too which go perfectly in gift boxes or advent calendars etc :)
Fun opening (I got the family blend and cocoa grizzly). Really enjoyed and have this in the mornings now before I head to work.
I bought this for, of course, Queen Emma. A tiny tin of matcha makes my daily morning latte. It's fabulous. As for the coffee, it's just okay. Nothing to call home about. I'm a sucker for branding and I absolutely love Chamberlain Coffee's.

I really like Chamberlain coffee! Honestly, I tend to be skeptical of influencer-founded brands but it feels like Emma and her team really put in the work here. Their flavors are really delicious & the beans arehigh quality. Plus, they have cute (and practical!) accessories. Looking forward to trying more from them!
I have yet to try the coffee from Chamberlain Coffee, but I have tried the hot chocolate and the unflavored matcha powder. I was shocked at how GOOD both were despite the lower price. I am so happy I tried and am very excited to try the coffee (once I get a bean grinder).

I've tried all of their matchas (except for the mango-flavored one) and I love all of them so much! They're super tasty and their packaging is so cute. I'm obsessed with the lavender-flavored matcha - it's one of my favorite drinks on this planet.
I'm a big fan of Emma Chaimberlain's videos/fashion stuff, and because of the "influencer status" I was a bit skeptical of the coffee brand but I've been veryyyyy pleasantly surprised with Chamberlain Coffee. The cold brew bags are really good (they're strong yay) and I like the the plain matcha too. Excited to try more products!
I thought this product was absolutely delicious! I loved that it was not too sweet and it did not have an artificial sweetener taste to it. I thought it was also pretty affordable and it is something I would purchase again.

Chamberlain Coffee offers a diverse range of coffee products that cater to various taste preferences. While the brand has received praise for its flavor profiles and convenience, individual experiences may vary based on personal taste preferences.
I love cold coffee drinks and saw the variety of flavors this brand offered so decided to give it a try. I found them to be too sweet for my tastes. The variety and uniqueness of the flavors was amazing though.
I was pleasantly surprised by the taste of the coffee beans, I was on the hunt for some beans after I purchased a new coffee maker. I thought this might be another one of those celebrity brands that lack taste. However I really liked it.
