The verdict

Field notes

Hidden gem Bustling Locals + tourists

Tucked away behind a store in the Courtyard Marriott area, this is a fantastic spot for those who want a high-quality barista-made latte or a treat like their Ube cold brew and butterscotch latte. The food menu is a standout, especially the crispy croffles and avocado toast, which make it a great alternative to hotel buffets. If you're looking for a quiet, lounge-style atmosphere to linger over a coffee, you might find the seating limited and the vibe more geared toward a quick, high-energy take-out order.
