Top 5 Coffee Roasteries in Philippines

Universal LMS Building, 106 Esteban, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines

“I love that they made this place big as their coffee is really great! I tried the Legazpi coffee exclusives, Coco Loco and Bittersweet Symphony, and these coffee blends are uniquely good! They also serve the orders fast considering the flow of people in the cafe. It's not the hype that made this cafe busy but the flavors are really good! We'll surely keep coming back for more.”

“It’s always a good idea to get coffee and desserts at Toby’s Estate. The calmansi pie was not too tangy and sweet and had a pretty solid graham crust. The carrot cake tasted fresh and the frosting was smooth and soft (was not straight out of a cold fridge or something). The cookie was just ok, unremarkable. Flat white and long black were satisfying (as always). The service was fast. The place was pretty crowded on a Sunday. Restroom was clean and stocked.”

“At this charming café, you're enveloped in a welcoming aroma, a fundamental check for any eatery, and more so for a café. While compact, the space is snug and inviting, a cozy retreat from the hustle outside. The music, albeit not unpleasant, creates a jarring note against the backdrop of the cafe's atmosphere, settling into a puzzling Average on the harmony scale. The Himalayan Latte stands out with its Above Average taste, distinguishing itself in the landscape of similar beverages. It may not be the pinnacle of coffee perfection, but it certainly rises above the commonplace offerings. The Sparkling Lemonade, with just the right touch of sweetness, refreshes without the edge of tartness, an Average contender in the world of fizzy refreshments. The Macha Latte provides a satisfactory sip, though it lingers at an Average rating when reminiscing the authentic Macha experiences of Japan. The Parmesan Truffle Fries, anticipated as a tantalizing appetizer, unfortunately, land in the realm quality of "Poor”. They arrived not only as a late afterthought but also failed to deliver on their aromatic promise. The cheese was present, yet its flavor was absent, and the elusive truffle became a rarity, making the experience underwhelming. The main dishes partially salvaged the dining experience. The Torikatsu, with its Above Average taste, brought a pleasant surprise with its satisfying crunch and tasteful pairing with fermented egg. Meanwhile, the Beef Tapa was squarely Average, providing a taste that was neither exceptional nor disappointing. In the end, the potential seen in select offerings was overshadowed by the forgettable fries. They pulled the overall impression down to an Average experience, marred by a Poor-rated dish. Thus, the café earns a 3-star rating, for an experience that, while not soaring to great heights, was regrettably anchored by its lows.”

“My feet are itching to go for the Mt. Cabuyao easy hike and have another chance to look at the bird's-eye view of Baguio City and to finally try eating at Cafe in the Sky. On the final bend, only 500m left to where the cafe is located, I felt my tiredness slowly dissipate. In my excitement on reaching the cafe, I forgot to take a pic on how it look from the outside. What I only have is their logo, the cafe interior, and most importantly, the view. More on IG @mangan.pasyar.stories”
