Cute coffee shop/bistro with a nice selection of mostly filipino pastries and a great selection of signature drinks. The Ube latte is so delicious! Their food menu (salads, samdwiches, bowls) also looked very intriguing.

The hot chocolate was rich and comforting, and the flat white perfectly smooth. Even though it was our first time visiting, the owner made us feel so welcomed, greeting us with a warm smile and a genuinely friendly vibe. She’s cheerful, kind, and made the experience so memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better first visit!
