The BEST THEATER CAFE IN MANILA!!!!!! They actually have a mini theater upstairs that lets you watch movies if you purchase ₱350 (any movie you want pa!) + PET FRIENDLY! I also understand why they have the 2-hour policy, is because they're always a full house! And some of them are even tambays which i cant blame them cos hello?? ang ganda ng cafe di ko sila masisi. But going back, yall have to understand why they have this policy. Some are tambays, some are staying for too long WITHOUT purchasing new items. Hello?? small coffee shop lang sila but you guys treat them like sb which is a bigger coffee shop and ang target market ay yung tambay talaga. I also saw one of the reviews that their coffee and food is expensive... GORL WHAT??? Its the best ive tasted!!! But yall dont seem to complain if drinks from SB arent up to your standards?? Anyway, those hating on this cafe are clearly not the target market lololol.
