Which coffee brand is most popular in the US in 2026?
Starbucks leads with an estimated 81M people in the United States showing active interest over the trailing 12 months.
Does this include coffee shops as well as packaged coffee?
Yes. Chains and retail coffee brands are ranked on the same metric, which is what makes the comparison useful: they compete for the same occasion even though they sit in different retail channels.
Is audience size the same as market share?
No. Market share is a share of category sales; audience size is a count of interested people. A brand can hold modest share and a large audience if many people consider it without buying, which is exactly the gap worth acting on.
Can I see where a brand's audience is concentrated?
Yes. Each brand links to its full profile, which includes regional distribution down to postal-code level in built-out markets.
How often is this ranking updated?
Quarterly, from the latest search-behavior data.
