Such a cute place to hang out with your loved one or your friends. Loved the atmosphere, coffee was good. I had Salted Caramel iced coffee, it was good for its size and price. Staff was very kind and hospitable. Because it's a garden, expect to hang out with some ants or mosquitoes, haha. 😁

Homey, eclectic, rustic. Food was fairly priced and tasty. Must visit to try out their non breakfast items. For the silogs, we enjoyed the Tapa, Macau Longganisa and Hungarian Sausage. And for dessert, suman with caramel sauce 😊

Wonderful visit along the homey alleys in marikina. Visited on a Saturday noon and there were a few people, but it’s not packed.

Ambience - very filipino and homey. It’ll remind you of a typical and traditional backyard. Open space, lots of greens, and natural lighting on fleek. Lots of good spots to take pictures.

Food - We really wanted to try the suman but it wasn’t available when we went there. Sad because it’s the one I looked forward to the most. Price points were on the affordable side. Tapsilog wasn’t special, it’s the flakey style. Their isaw was good, for 20 php a stick n their suka is bomb.

Drinks- My companion ordered the iced caramel drink and it was just average. I got hot green tea and they used twinnings along with honey.

Overall a nice experience. I just wish they put more Filipino cuisine to their menu like tsokolate de batirol, bibingka, and other kakanins. It’ll match the vibe for sure. Heard they have live music on Saturday nights and we wish we watched. Will be back soon with family, hopefully.

A chill backyard cafe in Marikina City that offers an all-day breakfast, food, and coffee is affordable and it's okay for the price. We really love their backyard dining setup it's super cozy! They also have group meal packages and everything is for a reasonable price. They accept cashless payment and also you can order thru foodpanda and grab. The staffs are all friendly and approachable and the place is clean. Street parking only.
Our experience was not good so I would not be recommending it. It’s up to you if you would like to risk. We will not go back here. There are other restaurants worth for a visit. Nothing special.

Me and My sister went for merienda. The service was too lame. They were just texting and they don’t pay attention much to customers. They didn’t even offered a serving water even we have no drinks. It’s literally just the two us. The pasta is very small serving and it was on a paper plate. The burger was too greasy. They actually forgot to serve the suman. Speaking of suman it was very small but it taste quite good. We just followed up so I came up. They were sorry but that’s it.

Food I ordered was delicious. Al Fresco dining was great. Enjoy the relaxing ambience of the outdoors. Take a photo near the bahay kubo or the arch. People are friendly. Enjoyed dining here

I like the garden peg of the place. The food though is not exceptional. We ordered Pinoy Spaghetti w/c is really sweet I was hoping the bread will balance it with some garlicky or buttery flavor but it tasted like a plain toasted bread. Nachos is generous with cheese but the onions underneath are overwhelming. coffee is ok. Employees look tired I hope they’re ok. I love that they allow pets inside.
