The Real Cost of Your Coffee Habit in Canada (2026)
A Canadian roaster breaks down the real cost per cup for cafe, grocery, and subscription coffee in 2026. Where your $7 cappuccino money actually goes.
Specialty-grade beans, small-batch roasted the weekend they ship. Hand-delivered to Markham Sunday, or free standard shipping over $60.
You pick the coffee, then the roast, grind, and amount. For every coffee in your plan, changeable before each weekly cutoff. Go ahead, try it:
The RoastPlan standard
Subscription coffee comes in someone else's increments: fixed bag sizes, one grind, a roast you didn't pick. Close enough is the whole business model. Precision shouldn't be exotic in coffee.
RoastPlan takes a spec, not a size: any quantity from 200g up, ground exactly for your brewer, at the roast you choose, revisable weekly until Saturday 10 AM. Roasted that morning, hand-delivered to Markham on Sunday, or shipped free over $60. Watch one order travel the week.

It's like having our favorite specialty cafe, but the coffee's right here at home and even fresher! Beans are always super aromatic and roasted perfectly. Customer service is pretty good too.
My weekly RoastPlan delivery is my happy mail! The freshness is just undeniable. Having fun trying all the different single origins – blows away most cafe offerings.

★★★★★My coffee routine was so blah before. Now I actually look forward to it. Getting to play around with different roasts and grinds, all super fresh. Small thing, big difference.

★★★★★Cancel before Saturday 10 AM and you were never charged a cent. No minimum charges, no prepaid terms that outlive your interest, no points held hostage.
