How this ranking works

Figures are per portion as served, from the Caffè Nero Allergen, Nutritional & Ingredient Guide (GB) issued 9 September 2026, checked September 2026. Where a published figure was internally inconsistent, Boone has used the value consistent with the rest of Caffè Nero’s data. Boone derives free sugars rather than using the total sugar Caffè Nero publishes. Lactose in milk is deducted at 1.3g per gram of milk protein, and at 0.4g per gram of protein for yogurt, because NHS daily limits do not count the sugars naturally present in milk. Sugars in oat, almond, soya and coconut drinks are counted as free sugars, because they are released by processing rather than naturally present. Sugars in whole fruit pots do not count; sugars in fruit purées, honey and syrups do. Daily free sugar limits are 30g for adults and teenagers, 24g for ages 7 to 10 and 19g for ages 4 to 6. Every drink is listed with semi-skimmed milk, the default Caffè Nero serves, except the Cinnamon Roll Latte and Iced Blueberry Muffin Matcha, which Nero serves with oat as standard. Oat, almond, soya and coconut versions of each drink have their own pages and can be compared in the calculator on any item page. Nero's coconut option is Alpro Barista Coconut, made on a soya base. Where a drink comes in Regular and Grande, each size is listed separately. Whipped cream is excluded, as a topping, except on the Luxury Hot Chocolate and Luxury Mocha, which are only served with it.
