“I discovered the Bold Bean Co through Radio HP and am addicted to the Queen Chick Peas, I will literally eat them straight out of the jar. I also roast them, add them to soups and whizz up the most delectable hummus. I have converted my friends and family that Bold Bean is the only one to get, they are are more adventurous than me and love the butter beans too.”
Hey Fanny, so amazing to hear how much you’re enjoying the Queen Chickpeas—and we love that you’re spreading the word! Eating them straight out of the jar is totally a vibe, and your roasted chickpeas and hummus sound like next-level deliciousness.
It’s also great that your friends and family are on board, and trying out the butter beans too! Thanks for making Bold Beans a part of your kitchen and for sharing the love with others.
You’re officially part of the Bold Bean family now!
We’re so glad to hear you’re loving Bold Beans! They really do make the perfect quick lunch option—delicious and super convenient.
We’re all about quality and making sure every jar is as tasty as possible.
Thanks for being such a big fan! What’s your go-to quick lunch recipe with them?
“Bold Beans are the best beans out there. They are so creamy and delicious and come in a fabulous stock, which is a great base for soups, stews etc. They may seem expensive but they are value for money - form the main part of many of my meals and don’t require long cooking. The beans are fab, the company is fab, I am genuinely obsessed and evangelical- tell anyone who listens about them!!”
We LOVE hearing how obsessed you are with Bold Beans! 😍 It’s so great that the beans are playing such a key role in your meals, and we couldn’t agree more—those stocks make a fantastic base for all kinds of dishes. Thank you for spreading the love and recommending us to everyone!
Have you tried any of our recipes yet, or do you have a personal fave?
“Found Bold Beans after treating ourselves to a Jamie Oliver Christmas hamper. We couldn’t believe how gorgeous the Queen Chickpeas were - so good we ate them straight out the jar. Made a veggie curry with them (using Jamie’s Korma sauce, also delicious) and ordered chickpeas and butter beans from Bold Bean direct. So far, have made Butter Bean Puttanesca (fab) and roasted some chickpeas with paprika as a snack. Look forward to trying lots more recipes with both. They really are superb.”
Thank you for sharing this with us!
We’re thrilled to hear that you discovered Bold Beans through the Jamie Oliver Christmas hamper - such an epic feature from him! Love to hear you have been loving the Queen Chickpeas and Butter Beans. It sounds like you've been getting creative in the kitchen with some amazing recipes – the Butter Bean Puttanesca sounds delicious, and roasted chickpeas with paprika is a great snack idea!
We're so glad you’re enjoying the beans, and we can’t wait to hear what other tasty dishes you come up with.
“I've been eating Bold Beans since I first heard about them on BBC Radio Four's food programme. Prior to this I couldn't buy jarred beans easily. I have a regular subscription and eat bean based meals 2 - 3 times a week. They are so much better than canned - delicious, fabulous texture and tasty stock. Customer services always respond very promptly to any queries and the subscription is much better value than buying ad hoc from the supermarket.”
Thank you so much Carol for your loyalty and kind words!

“I love beans; they have been a staple of my diet for years, either home-cooked or tinned. But Bold Beans beans are just so much more delicious - good enough to eat straight out of the jar! Well worth the money.”
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback Elizabeth! We're thrilled to hear that Bold Beans have become such a delicious addition to your diet. We agree—sometimes, they’re just too good to wait for a recipe!
We're so glad to be a part of your bean journey. If you ever need recipe inspiration or want to try something new, we've got plenty to share!
“I love the chickpeas and Butter beans straight from the jar. I have added other beans to minestrone. I have added butter beans to Broccoli cheese to give it more fibre and protein and I have made Bean Puttanesca. Still to try the black beans so no comment on them.
I was sorry when M and S stopped stocking them and as far as I can see our local supermarkets only stock small jars which is annoying.”
Hey Ann, thanks so much for getting in touch and sharing your love for our beans!
We’re thrilled to hear how you’ve been using them in so many delicious ways—your broccoli cheese with butter beans sounds amazing! We can’t wait for you to try the black beans when you get the chance!
We’re truly gutted to no longer be stocked in M&S stores. We’d love for you to continue supporting our brand, but of course, if that means shopping elsewhere, we totally understand!
In the meantime, we hope you can find our beans in your local Sainsbury's, Tesco or your local independent shops. We’re always here to help if you need assistance with where to find us.
Thanks again for your ongoing support—it really means the world to us!
THANK YOU! So love to hear this. We are on a mission to make everyone OBSESSED with beans by giving them the best of beans, so absolutely love to hear we have converted you.
“I discovered these beans through a friend, the butter beans were my first surprise...I've never been keen on butter beans until a friend made a lovely kale and bean dish that was so suprisingly good (and simple) that I decided to add them to my repetoire. There is such a difference between the 'regular' beans and bold beans - I've now tried all of them including the new smoky baked beans. I wish the whole range was availabe in Waitrose! I recommend them to all of my friends, who usually roll their eyes at me, until they actually try them!”
This is so lovely to hear—thank you Sharon!
We’re thrilled that Bold Beans have won you over (especially the butter beans—they're a game-changer). That kale and bean dish sounds SO good!
And we hear you on Waitrose! In the meantime, Ocado has our full range, and of course, you can always stock up on our website.
Keep spreading the bean love—we LOVE to hear you're converting your friends one by one.
“I discovered Bold Beans after reading an article ranking all the supermarket chickpeas (they were ranked best, naturally) and I've never bought canned beans since I gave them a go! They're so delicious I eat them straight out the jar! But they also make every recipe so much better. The cookbook is a delight too and we are currently aiming to make every dish in it and rank all the recipes as we go.”
This is amazing—thank you!
We love that an article led you to Bold Beans, and even more so that you've never looked back. Eating them straight from the jar? Absolutely one of the best snacks.
We love that you're cooking your way through the cookbook and ranking the recipes—what a dream. Let us know your favourites so far!
“I cannot praise Bold Bean Co highly enough. The first and foremost thing is that the beans are absolutely delicious, so the product sells itself. As a company, they seem to have things right. The website is great - especially the Beanspo recipes which update and refresh all the time. Every recipe I have tried has been fabulous. It is also feeding into our 30 a week goal and helping to make plant based eating so much more do-able.
On a practical note, the ordering and delivery side is brilliant too, and their instagram is always eye catching and makes me want to try the latest idea.
I recommend Bold Bean to all my friends, and have gifted several trial boxes.
Keep on doing waht you're doing Bold Bean - you're the best!
One of my favourites - Butter bean puttanesca - what a treat!”
Hey Hilary! We’re so happy to hear that our beans are making plant-based eating more exciting and helping you hit that all-important 30-a-week goal. And we love that you’re spreading the bean love with friends and gifting trial boxes—what a dream!
Butter Bean Puttanesca is a firm fave here too. If you haven’t already, try adding some crispy breadcrumbs or toasted seeds on top for an extra crunch—game changer!
Thanks SO MUCH for being part of the Bold Bean community. We’ll keep doing what we do best—bringing you the most delicious beans possible!
“Bold beans changed my life!!
I used to really dislike butter beans, until I discovered your gorgeous version. I now love every single bean I have tried in the range.
The biggest discovery for me has been that eating healthily doesn’t need to be boring or taste rubbish.
Your miso bean recipe is a game changer, by the way. Soooo delicious”
This makes our day—thank you!
We love hearing that our beans have completely changed the way you feel about butter beans (and beans in general!). Healthy eating should never be boring, and we’re so glad our beans are proving that.
And yes, the miso bean recipe is next-level—so much umami goodness! If you haven’t already, try adding a soft-boiled egg or some crispy tofu on top for extra deliciousness.
Thanks for being part of our community!
“Unfortunately I haven’t got anything original to say about these superb beans! I’m really sorry I didn’t find them earlier but I’m trying hard to make up for lost time. These beans must be the best in the world and I feel very sorry for anybody who hasn’t got them in their cupboard.
They are totally different to all other baked beans and so good I am eating them every day .
What else can one say spa from these are the best beans you can buy”
“I love bold beans! They have incredible flavour and texture. As a vegetarian they really up-level my meals and help me get the fiber, protein, and nutrients I need, while being delicious!”
Hey! Ah - this is so amazing to hear. I'm so thrilled to hear you're enjoying these as a veggie and can get lots of satisfaction from a super full meal.
“Been enjoying bold bean for many many years now, started with ordering them off Ocado. Yes they’re pricey but genuinely can you say you like eating red beans out of a tin, well i converted to red beans after discovering bold beans ones and realised beans aren’t meant to be slimy”
Love this Jas! We totally agree—beans should never be slimy!
It makes our day to hear that you've been enjoying our beans for so long and that we've even converted you to loving queen red beans. Quality beans really do make all the difference, and we're so happy you're on this journey with us.
Thanks for sticking with us over the years!
“These beans have changed the way I eat. I've been looking into ways of reducing my meat intake and these beans have been the perfect substitute. I've made many of the recipes on the website and all have been delicious. Yes they are more expensive than the standard tinned beans but the taste is outstanding and definitely worth paying the extra. I'm totally hooked and won't buy any other brand.”
Hey Lizzy! Wow—this is exactly why we do what we do! We love that our beans have become your go-to and are helping you on your journey to eating less meat. There really is no substitute for top-quality beans, and we’re thrilled you’re enjoying the recipes too. Thanks so much for sharing—it means the world.
