Coffee shops and tea rooms Philippines

A café that's also a bakery. The interior is quite small, quiet and very cosy, with a slightly bohemian-chic decor. The pastries are extremely appetizing: cookies, cheesecake, donuts, carrot cake and other cakes, each more tempting than the last. The coffees are very good, as are the other fresh fruit juices and milkshakes. What's more, the staff are very friendly. There are also a few savoury dishes, such as great nachos, pastas and sandwiches. A good address in Las Piñas for almost ten years.

Located on the main road, Black Scoop Café is a nice and modern address where you can meet the youth of Legazpi at the end of the school day, as teenagers come here to have a bubble tea or a milkshake. They either relax or do their homework, in a relaxed atmosphere. There is a large choice of coffees (which is very good, by the way) and more original and gourmet drinks (coffee shakes, milkshakes, etc.). In case of hunger, there are various cakes, and the cookies are very good.

A must for coffee lovers but not only! They also serve gourmet and original dishes (the grilled cheese sandwich is recommended) and cookies. As for the coffee, they are all delicious. So, a good coffee and a snack, the whole tasted on a charming terrace near the beach... what more could you ask for? If the atmosphere wasn't enticing enough, you should know that there are regular concerts. Expect to wait in line, this little coffee shop is a bit of a victim of its own success.

This brand new café is located on the corner of Fig Sunset View Resort. The decoration is modern, bohemian inspired, with rattan furniture and soft benches covered with cushions. The place smells like freshly ground coffee (it is very good), and also has a very good wifi connection, which may help some people. On the menu, chocolate or caramel coffee shakes, lychee or peach iced teas, matcha, strawberry or blueberry smoothies, plus a selection of cookies and tempting cakes. A gourmet address.

Papakape, which means "to offer coffee" in Tagalog, is an old garage that has been renovated into a glass shack that houses a coffee bar. With a very small garden with lush vegetation, hidden in the heart of Makati. The few tables are very pleasant, and it is very quiet. On the menu, mainly coffees but also some juices and iced teas. The coffees are few but some recipes are quite original and greedy as the coffee infused with ginger and declined in hot or cold versions.

A new address for coffee fans! In the San Luis passage, this modern and trendy coffee bar displays a neat decoration with paintings hung on its wooden and white brick walls. It is the ideal place for a small stop in the peace. Some tempting pastries, cookies, all possible coffee variations and other drinks like a delicious hibiscus lemonade or various milkshakes. The prices are quite cheap. An unpretentious address but full of charm.

Here's an address that's original, colorful and full of pep! Shake Me is a charming, colorful juice bar covered from wall to ceiling with hundreds of multicolored post-it notes. To fill up on vitality and vitamins, we're more partial to their delicious fruit juices or fresh milkshakes, and their homemade ice creams. For a little more indulgence, we'll go for a pastry and a milkshake in cookies or chocolate (or even Bubble Gum for the more daring). A fresh, gourmet break! For a change, we recommend.

Perched high on a hill, this café is ideal for a late afternoon gourmet break. It offers a wide selection of hot and cold drinks based on coffee, caramel and chocolate, but also fruit milkshakes and the famous halo-halo, a mixture of crushed ice and condensed milk with various flavors and toppings. It is also a restaurant where you can find the usual range of Filipino dishes. One comes here above all to enjoy the breathtaking view of the bay from its rounded terrace, sheltered under an imposing dome.

A pleasant address for breakfast or lunch. It is possible to eat outside, in the quiet of the pleasant terrace located at the back of the store. Prices are reasonable for breakfast and pasta dishes, but coffee drinks are a little more expensive than elsewhere. Its location, close to the airport on Rizal Avenue, and the efficient wifi make it a convenient place for a work and/or relaxation break. The staff is particularly nice and welcoming, and the atmosphere is pleasant.

Primarily renowned for its pastries (the best in town), Margie's offers a range of flavorful Filipino and Asian dishes for lunch and dinner. The interior is cosy and the terrace very pleasant. The house specialties are the pistachio-colored macapuno pandan cake that Filipinos love, made from a mixture of aromatic herbs and coconut, and foods for the gods, a kind of buttery cake filled with walnuts. It's a place where you'll want to stay until dessert.

On the bus back home, they will probably try to sell you a buko pie, or coconut pie. The tastiest is the one from Loumars, known for its crispy pastry and beautiful golden color. Available everywhere in Tagaytay. A very Filipino specialty that you must try! Loumars also serves great fruit pies and a wide selection of Filipino dishes. The place is very nice, all in rattan wood and bamboo, open on the nature. Friendly atmosphere.

In this creperie, which has become a bit of an institution and is always crowded, the waiters who wear berets serve you crepes accompanied by cider. Perfect if you are already nostalgic or just want a change from the Filipino cuisine. On the sweet side, try the mango pancake (with mango ice cream on top!) and on the savory side, you can try the Dracula with garlic, cheese and tomatoes. Creative types can also create their own crepes. The French names on the menu alone are worth the detour.

A charming café with a whimsical and welcoming facade. It's a nice little place to have late breakfasts or even lunches (when it's open...the hours are not fixed). They propose very good omelets, longganisa, or chicken to be tasted with local rice and at a very reasonable price. And above all... Strawberry lovers, this place will be your new paradise: when it's in season, the strawberries grown on the spot are in all the dishes (yoghurt, pancakes, milkshakes...)!
