I also gave their returning Tahitian Vanilla Frappuccino a shot, and it was pretty good! It's sweet and reminds me of toffeenut; it's the perfect solution to wait off until Christmas. If this drink is seasonal too, then I'll easily hop back to bitter Green Tea goodness! Double Chocolate Pecan Bar is nice since it's a big serving but not too sweet. It bleeds chocolate if you have it heated and prick it with a fork. Feeling the crunchy texture of the top part is appetizing despite the dry look.

I ordered a Chai Tea Latte, paid for it. I was served... a green drink... a Matcha Latte. I asked about it. The answer I got was "ah! Wala kaming chai tea latte today. Narinig ko kasi matcha latte. Sorry." And he leaves for the back room. I sit there... trying to figure out what just happened. By myself. I feel bad. Very bad. I got excited to have a chai tea latte. I paid for a chai tea latte. I got a matcha latte instead. I try it anyway. What else was I going to do. The barista was gone. It was bitter, like matcha usually is. But a matcha latte isn't usually that bitter either. It was okay. I've posted on their FB. They've contacted me too. It's good to see there's an effort on their end to make things better. The person I chatted with has apologized for my experience and has made an effort to make it up to me. Hopefully their service does get better. Hopefully no one will ever have to start their day the way I started mine today.

Whenever I need to grab a cup of coffee that isn't the commercial kind, I run to Third Cup Cafe. I…read morealso like that on my previous visits, it's never too noisy or filled with college students hanging out or studying. My favorite drink at Third Cup Cafe is the Mochachino. It has the right caffeine punch to keep me awake in the afternoon (to be honest, after lunch carb sleepiness is counterproductive!) The drink itself isn't too sweet and the blend of chocolate and coffee is just right. The cafe's interiors are also very conducive for studying and working. Although sockets for laptops are a bit hard to come by, it's either you seat yourself by the window or on the couches so you can have access to the socket. Also, WiFi is free, but you'll have to like them on Facebook first to be able to access it. Overall, I really like Third Cup Cafe. It's not too expensive and the coffee is really good. The ambiance is also nice for a quick chat with a friend, or if you need to work or study, and if you want to go solo flight and just cozy up with a book.

For some reason they always make their drinks perfect and the employees are really extra super duper nice. Abbey and Nikki are true coffee masters! They really fulfill the complete Starbucks experience. The drinks are always amazing, and if u don't think so they'll remake it with no questions asked. AAAANND, they'll even ask you to try it again to make sure you really like it. If u still don't like it, then they'll make it AGAIN! Starbucks really goes out of their way to please the customer. There's always great seasonal drinks and food, but my favorite food would have to be the caramel macchiato and chicken fajita roll!

Walked in last weekend during a crazy downpour, dripping wet, and the barista just smiled, handed me a towel to dry off, and asked what I felt like without any rush. Ended up with their single-origin pour-over--Ethiopian this time--and it was bright, juicy, and perfectly balanced, like every sip reminded me why I fell in love with coffee in the first place. Sat by the window watching the rain hammer Pasong Tamo, worked on my laptop for hours with zero pressure to leave. The space is still that perfect mix of raw concrete and warm light, never too crowded, always calm. Staff remembered my usual order even though it's been months since I last dropped by. Five stars, easily--still one of the most consistently great coffee experiences in Manila.

Fortunately, Habitual Coffee holds its own. Situated on a super industrial part of Pasong Tamo (though gentrification is very real and will probably make its way here very soon), it's kind of out of the way compared to most third wave coffee spots. This is a good thing though! I've never had a problem finding a seat there. The set up is great too. Very industrial. I like the large amount of natural light and sparse feeling of the place. There's a lot of exposed concrete and metal, making the place very Instagram worthy. There are also outlets, wifi, and pretty large tables so getting some work done here is definitely possible. I just wish the seats were more supportive. The coffee is amazing! I believe Yardstick sourced a lot of their coffee while I was there. Their mocha and Americano are great. Not too bitter. The only downside I have is the clientele was a little snooty. The staff, however, was great.
