Indoor decor was simple yet modern. The La Marzocco machine is always a good sign for me and I saw that beauty as soon as we entered. For drinks, My husband ordered a plain iced latte while I got their Spanish one. It was absolutely delicious. I was in love with that drink - not only was the latte art spot on but the drink was perfect. You could tell the beans were roasted wonderfully and the balance of sweetness was just right. We also had a pour over and I enjoyed watching how the process went. I appreciated that they also have food on the menu. I wanted to eat rice that day and was glad to see Karaage Don had it. It was delicious! The truffle fries was a nice appetizer as well and we cleaned that plate up. We were also served Chicken parmesan by mistake but we gladly ate it as that one too was delish! Everything we had ordered was enjoyable and the overall visit did not disappoint. You could say it was the perfect way we had capped off our vacation in Cebu! Will hopefully be back soon so this coffee shop better be there still!

    I knew of UCC because of anime so I wasn't expecting a real storefront in Cebu at all! Once I…read morerealized this place was a real franchise, I learned to appreciate the establishment more and the products. Coming to two locations in Cebu, you can see the Japanese influence and community in the region with other Japanese coffee and cafe shops around the area. This location is my favorite because of the big space with lots of seating, the fact that they're open late (pre-COVID-19), and the fooood! I wasn't sure if a coffee commercial brand would have delicious food but here we are! It reminds me of my old eats in NY with their casual sandwiches. Being that they are a coffee company, they serve coffee all day and night! Great for late night chit chats, study nights, night craves, and those who need a pick-me-up after a long day at work. Service here is accommodating and nice. We came here three times during our stay and would gladly recommend and come again when in Cebu City. The ambience is super chill that you will see students chatting and working here. I've only come here late night for a quick bite and for some coffee. I've tried their desserts like their ube cheesecake (made like the Japanese cheesecakes with a Pinoy touch) and their salmon croissant. They make various kinds of coffee styles from Japanese pour overs to Spanish lattes to Vietnamese coffee. I have enjoyed their Hong Kong style coffee and Filipino local coffee. If you take your espresso drinks seriously, this is a fun place to go (although commercial and not in the category of Cebuano specialty coffee scene). They serve salads to rice dishes to baked goods. It's a fun place to try some innovative Japanese inspired Filipino-infused dishes. Open late. CR available. Good for work/study but loud! Mangaon ta!

    While Cebu is filled with new hipster coffee places, this is one of the best ones. I specifically…read morelike the interior, it's very bright yet dark at the same time. Classy but chill, it's a really cool coffee spot. Parking would be difficult because right on the highway so I definitely have no idea where you can park your car here. Prices of their drinks would've been okay except their cups are smaller than usual ones you see in major chains like Starbucks or CBTL, and while the flavor could make up for the price... it's really not THAT out of the ordinary. They have great drinks but not incredible drinks so if you're willing to spend for smaller than average cups then this is the place to try. I was able to try their iced white chocolate mocha, chocolate espresso frappe and vanilla bean caramel frappe, both were really good!

The interior of the place is spacious equipped with warm light that lends a welcoming, somewhat homey vibe to the venue. Coffee and food are priced just right so you don't necessarily feel like you're breaking the bank just for a coffee fix. The staff are courteous and polite. They also seem to really know what they're selling and is able to offer you suggestions should you have ni idea what to get. Overall, it's a good addition to the growing coffee chains in Cebu. Highly recommended for coffee lovers.
