You can use the code Valentine to get 50% off coffee at www.theoldbarracks.ie for today only. It's probably as well you can get it at half price as it is an-chostasach but a good opportunity to try a new coffee roasters if you need to stock up.

coffee is lovely there - this is a great offer, thanks

gipi · 31-01-2022 1:17pm

Just placed an order, thanks Prunty!

asharkman · 31-01-2022 4:55pm

Cheers for that, i went for the house blend and honduras.

The honduras sounds amazing.

rameire · 31-01-2022 7:08pm

Cheers Prunty.

Was out of beans and needed some of the good stuff.

Just above where you enter your credit card details.

romperstomper · 31-01-2022 10:13pm

the discount code is still good - thank you OP

BUT

27 quid for a 500g bag of coffee beans is bananas. c'mon! there is an Ethiopian bag in my local lidl that is gorgeous and is 3.99!

clevtrev · 01-02-2022 9:56am

still working although I have never paid more than a fiver for a pack of coffee!

starbaby2003 · 01-02-2022 11:43am

Thanks OP, just ordered some. Their house blend with the code is the same price as the large lavazza package. It’s a great bargain ! https://www.dunnesstoresgrocery.com/product/lavazza-qualit-rossa-coffee-beans-1000g-100775968

ablelocks · 01-02-2022 12:11pm

looks like it's expired - code didn't work for me just now.

Are you sure? Just made an order using the code.

ablelocks · 01-02-2022 5:00pm

maybe it only works once per account/order...but definitely not available for me

Yggr of Asgard · 02-02-2022 1:06pm

Has anybody who ordered this with the discount actually gotten a shipment or at least a dispatch note yet?

bergipau · 02-02-2022 1:36pm

Yea. I got a dispatch email this morning

borus22222 · 02-02-2022 5:17pm

Delivered today. Haven't tried the coffee yet.

breeno · 02-02-2022 5:27pm

Arrived today with roast date 31/01/22. Impressive. Had a cup of the house blend and it was very good but need to dial it in a bit. Delighted with this deal but would struggle to justify it full price!

Same story here.

scudzilla · 04-02-2022 7:57am

I mailed them, they said check junk folder. Sure enough, there was order confirmation

Yggr of Asgard · 04-02-2022 10:20am

God News, I got my DPD Parcelwizzard notification this morning that they will delivery my order today.

Website still shows it as unfullfilled and no mail from them, but at least I know it's now coming today.

CWF · 04-02-2022 11:53am

Seems to be expired now!

Yggr of Asgard · 04-02-2022 1:03pm

You can now get 20% off with VALENTINE20.

I got a newsletter before I got a shippinig notification, not the best customer experience, especially as I opted out of future news.

Hopefully others won't have made same mistake - I was sure I'd put in my delivery address (currently different to my billing address) but it seems like I've ended up with pick-up at their shop! Might be worth checking your order email (if you received one).

gipi · 04-02-2022 2:43pm

Same here. I emailed them re my order, got notification that my order was on the way (no tracking details though). I got the newsletter before I contacted them about the order.

SouthWesterly · 04-02-2022 3:18pm

I messaged them. They said they are experiencing delays in packing due to an unprecedented number of orders.

Expect delivery between 7-9

Yggr of Asgard · 04-02-2022 5:33pm

Got mine just now.

What I like

Coffee Package is great with the ability to open easy and a good method of resealing.

Coffee itself is great, I really enjoyed the house blend prepared in my Chemex.

What I don't like

No roast date on the package

The 2 packs of coffee were pressed into a way to small package with loads of additional padding reusing old Musgrave marketplace bags of some sort

Will I be back?

Time will tell, as I will have to fine tune a little to dial in the right grind and amount for my particular brew method but so far I can't see me paying full price for this.

gipi · 05-02-2022 3:16pm

My order was delivered this morning.

One to watch if you're ordering again...I ordered a gift box mini, which costs 39 euro (full price). The photo alongside the item suggests that the gift box contains 4 packets of coffee. What I got was 2 full bags and 2 sample bags. Not what I expected, but I guess I didn't read the webpage closely enough.

Coffee roast dates were 2nd Feb, so can't fault the freshness.

asharkman · 08-02-2022 1:46pm

Got mine on sat, honduras coffee is absolutely delish. very happy with price, delivery was a bit slow, but i guess a small company doing a very big deal. They probably weren't expecting the demand.

My bags were both roasted within the past 7 days.

I got mine yesterday and roasted within the last seven days. Had some free samples, fortune cookies, a personal message and great coffee! Lovely touch and I'll be back at full price based on this.
