Coffee ranked by protein density

Showing the top 50 of the 1,139 coffee products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories. Figures per label, sourced from Open Food Facts and tracker user logs, last checked 2026-09-18.

What the coffee numbers show

1,139 of the 1,214 coffee products carry 20 calories or more per 100g, which is the floor below which protein per 100 calories stops being a real number. Across those the median is 3.3g of protein per 100 calories. 65 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories — about one in 18, and 10g is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

Calories run from 20 to 571 per 100g inside this one group, a 29-fold spread, so “coffee” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

Own-brand is not the compromise here. The supermarket own-label median is 5.1g of protein per 100 calories across 50 products, against 3.2g for the 1,089 name-brand ones.

Lidl is the only Irish chain with enough own-label coffee to compare fairly — 37 products at a median of 5.1g per 100 calories. Everywhere else this is a name-brand shelf.

What to actually pick

Most of what is sold as coffee is not a protein food. The 65 that clear 10g per 100 calories sit at the top of the table and are the exceptions, not the rule.

98 of the 1,139 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

Only one chain carries enough of this own-label to break out separately, so Lidl Coffee is the one sub-page here, next to everything else Lidl sells.

Drinks are the easiest thing in a day to miss, so this pairs with the calories people forget to count.

For one specific product rather than the whole group, the 20,000-product database is searchable on Calories in Ireland, and the same figures are built into the calorie app.
