Places to buy coffee by the pound
I always bought my coffee at Coffee Times on Regency Rd. Since we moved to the Todds Rd. area, I hate driving all the way over there as much as I use to hate driving all the way over here!
Other than Starbucks and Liquor Barn, does anybody know where I can get my Costa Rican by the pound. If there is, I would never have to leave my zip code again.

I don't know about the particular blend you're keen on but many coffee nuts consider Dunkin Donuts coffee first rate and now there's one downtown. When we lived in Chicago we bought beans by the pound at Dunkin Donuts and ground them at home.

I often buy coffee beans at Marshall's. It isn't as predictable to find the same thing twice but we generally like what I buy.

I have been reading about a place called Honey Bean that is in Tates Creek Center, I think.
I haven't been there but they have a website that sells bulk coffee, so I'm assuming that their storefront would, too.
Maybe a little closer for you.

Home Goods and TJ Maxx and Marshalls sells the Costa Rica coffee, its not there all the time but they do sell it. I've seen it at Sam's Club but only once.

Thanks everyone. I was hoping there would be something in Hamburg, since everything else is there! I will probably go downtown. I forgot about Common Grounds, and the Dunkin Donuts idea sounds good too!
