“ One of my favorite coffee shops around Taft/PGH area! Good food, and amazing coffee - I always get the Malate drink Ambiance is perfect, plus they have parking spaces!!! ”
“ Been on the hunt for a Banana Pudding Matcha Latte in Malate, and I finally found a café that serves it! I was already impressed when they agreed to serve the banana pudding separately upon request—big plus for that flexibility. Lately, I’ve been drinking Marukyu Koyamaen’s matcha, so my standards are pretty high. Before adding the pudding, I tasted the matcha latte on its own—and it passed the test! Smooth, clean, and unsweetened, which I appreciated since the banana pudding is sweet enough on its own. It seems like they’re using high-quality matcha powder, and I noticed they even use a chasen and chawan, which shows a nice respect for the craft. Once I added the banana pudding, the flavor did shift a bit. The sweetness of the pudding slightly overpowered the delicate matcha notes, but overall it still worked. A bit of balance adjustment would make it perfect. Still, I genuinely enjoyed it and will definitely come back. If you’re a matcha lover looking for something a little different, this one’s worth trying :) ”
“ The space is cozy and compact, it contributes to the vibe. Coffee is good and balanced. Brunch and pasta choices are plenty as well. ”
“ Went here last night with my friends. The place was cozy enough for chit chat and socializing. The food was also great which sets the mood for the customers. And yes, they offer cocktails as well. Cheers! ”
“ I went here around 9AM on a weekday and got the Banana Pudding Matcha and the Brookie. The Banana Pudding Matcha was so-so, the matcha taste was pretty watered down. The Brookie was good, very gooey! I do wished it was served in a plate since the cookie was very soft and hard to eat by hand. Ambiance was really calm and nice! I paid via card but they also accept cash and gcash payments. They also have service charge for dining customers. Would like to try their coffee next time! Parking is available in front of the restaurant. ”
