In fact you can call caffeine both polar and nonpolar, as caffeine (or 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine) consist of both polar and nonpolar components.. On the internet I've seen a lot of people using caffeines ability to disolve in water as an argument for it to be polar.. This is not a good argument though, as caffeine in fact disolves in oils too due to the nonpolarity which I mentioned..
