KAPETOLYO BY SGD COFFEE
One of the hotspot destinations in Manila last year. This was established last year and the vibe here is so extra!!! Super loved the ambiance outside and romantic at night.
What we loved aside from the ambiance is that they are supporting locals by using local coffee grounds. Can’t wait to visit again and see the improvements in this coffee shop.

SHIFT CAFE
One of the minimalist coffee shops we’ve been to! This is usually a takeout coffee shop before. Now, they have more seats available since we are allowed to do alfresco dining.
Super loved the coffee here, especially the Mood Shifter. Plus, we commend the minimalist cup here!
KOPI CREATIONS
One of the recent minimalist coffee shops we visited before the second lockdown. Super love this small, takeout coffee shop in Fairview! They were just taking orders online before, but many of their customers requested that they should open a branch. And tada, the rest is history!
Aside from the outside look of their coffee shop, we loved the packaging of the coffee. And yes, they are still open for delivery and still offer promo bundles. Oh, before we forgot, all drinks are below 99 PHP!
KALINAW COFFEE CO
We know coffee is all we need, but how about if there’s a choice for wine, too? Wine not!? Here at Kalinaw Coffee Co, you can have the best of both worlds (coffee and wine). At first, they were just an online store offering coffee drip bags until resellers came in, and the rest is history! They now have a physical store.
We also commend them for supporting other SMEs inside their store! Good job, Kalinaw Coffee!
PS: They are offering UNLI WINE here!

PALPITATE PH
A newly opened minimalist coffee shop near our place!!! So happy. The interior of the cafe is so aesthetic. Very instagrammable and picturesque. Can’t wait for this ECQ to be lifted so we can visit again and dine in.
The baristas will ask you if you like your coffee to be strong or milky. So that’s a plus for us.

We also went to their Tanay branch and the view is beyond beautiful! Watch our virtual tour here.
D’EXPRESSO QC (CLOSED)
Found this newly opened beach-inspired cafe in QC. This is an alfresco cafe that serves a wide variety of coffee and tea, ramen, and pastries. This is their second branch already; their first branch is located in Marikina but only goods for takeout.

This Korean-inspired and newly opened cafe in Kamuning is so extra! Aside from the instagrammable cafe, what we liked about this cafe was all the staff are PWD. Way to go, Hisbeans! We hope this is the start! We tried their coffee and pastries and it’s not that bad. Plus, it’s affordable!
