A perfect venue for a study group, business meeting or to just chill out. The Library Cafe is on…read morethe third floor and has a great view of the street below. You can hang out on their patio and people watch, relax on their covered swinging bench, or head on inside. They also have private study/meeting rooms for some peace and quiet. There's free WiFi, a strong aircon, soft music playing in the background, lots of elbow room, and a clean fully stocked bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful. I ordered a shake and a slice of cake. I felt like a little kid enjoying my strawberry milkshake with whipped cream and strawberry syrup drizzle. I even had a shovel straw to scoop up every last drop YUMMY! It was made with real strawberries and strawberry syrup: sweet with a hint of tart. I also had their custard cake which was moist and delicious. I'm planning to return to try out their food; but it'll need to be after 5pm when their food menu is available.

5 stars for the mango Bingsu. Wish there were more mango. Will try other stuff on their menu.read more

DINE IN DURING PANDEMIC…read more One way in, one way out, mask/face shield/temp/alcohol hand wash/questionnaire mandatory when walk in. Most patrons and workers wore only masks. Staff are friendly and shout greetings as you enter. They're hardworking, efficient and you can ask any one of them for assistance. You order at the counter then they bring the food to your table. Many menu items are not available, so ask before ordering to prevent disappointment. After ordering we chose to sit at the table furthest away and most isolated from the others. There was a screen and a fan facing away from us: hubby said it was to blow the Covid germs the other direction HAHA! They have a nice, spacious dining area with comfortable seating both inside and outside. We ordered the sausage breakfast. The "toast" was very pale, next time I'll have to tell them "well done". Other than the toast, breakfast here is always a solid choice. Because of the pandemic we rarely go out, so to celebrate we had the Tiramisu Macaron and Affogato for dessert. The ice cream in the Affogato was too sweet for me to eat by itself; but it balanced perfectly when paired with the bitterness of the coffee, not bad. The macaron, on the other hand, was meh. I'm sure it would have tasted much better fresh from the bakery; but the macaron was already stale. I'm sure we'll be back when we're in the area. For more details about this place please read my previous review below.

I've had to be satisfied with feeding strays, playing with store kitties and hanging out with my friends' cats. Cat cafes are my type of hangouts, so I was looking forward to visiting Coffee Cat. The cafe is separated into three main enclosed areas: a large dining area that can be used as a private party room, a smaller cafe type room, then there's the cat room. You gain admission to the cat room just by purchasing anything from the cafe. I would suggest to definitely buy some cat treats (P65) to attract the cats and help them to warm up to you. Before we went to play with the cats, hubby and I snacked on a grilled cheese sandwich with a side of tomato soup (yummy) and a blueberry cheesecake (too much cream cheese). Periodically the cats are taken to the back room for rest and feeding times, so we had to wait for the cats to come back out. I was the first one to go in; you need to remove your shoes and sanitize your hands before you enter. Two cats immediately hid, while the rest gathered around me because I had the treats. Beware of the Savannah because he/she will steal the treats from the other cats. I had to toss treats away from the others, and while the Serval went to get it, I gave treats to the more docile ones. I would also suggest to put the treats on the floor instead of trying to let them take the treats from your hand, you might accidentally get nipped. Now I've volunteered at a number of shelters, socialized many cats and even raised one from a newborn. In my opinion, these cats need more socialization. After all the treats were gone, they stayed apart from each other and from us hoomans. They weren't cuddly nor affectionate, and seemed to only tolerate the petting and scratching (didn't hear any purring from any of them). Only the munchin seemed to want to play; we had to use our fingers and keys as toys since there was only one toy available (you can see it in the video). Not all of them are neutered/spayed as evidenced by the gray Scottish fold trying to mount one of the females; she was not having any of his nonsense though and he gave up trying. One thing I do have to say about them is that they do have a good variety of cats to observe; however, I was sad that I didn't get to see the Sphinx because it was asleep in the back room. It's not easy to get to, we had to take a Grab. If I lived close by, I would stop by often to help socialize the cats. If you're not familiar with cats, I would suggest to bring a cat person with you to teach you how to interact with them, unless all you want to do is observe them. A couple positives: didn't notice a litter box smell, and we didn't leave covered in fur (they must groom them often).

After touring them around Pampanga, I wanted to treat them to some dessert and coffee. Teaspoon Cafe was on my list of places to check out. Decor is very cutesy; I love their comfy couches. This is one of those places that you just want to relax and enjoy your company. The food was surprisingly good for a coffee house, plus we were all happy with our drinks (fruit teas and blended coffee drinks). Good thing my cousin has a car. Even though it's located on Fil-Am Friendship Hwy, it's difficult catching a Jeep here. Best way to get here if you don't have a car, is to catch a Grab or trike. 4.5 start overall but I'm gonna bump up their rating because they're located next to a nursery with reasonably priced plants. Teaspoons is a nice stop for a light meal, or dessert and drinks.

They had many great breakfast items - I loved the mushroom omelette as well as many choices for lunch as well. They also have a good coffee & drink menu. They were unfortunately unable to make any of their Fruit Frenzy drinks while we were there, but the strawberry vanilla frappe was a good alternative and, while sweet, was very delicious. Great place to hangout & catch-up.

There was only one couple and me in the whole place. It was dim and soooo quiet, kinda spooky. There was no music, just a weird humming maybe from the aircon unit. The one and only staff was hanging out outside bored out of his skull. I had to climb up to the third floor (didn't see any elevators) so I was definitely gonna try something. I ordered the Lychee lemonade and as soon as I saw how artificially pink it was, I knew I would regret my decision. It was so sweet that I couldn't drink it. I gave to a street kid who could handle the sugar rush. The staff made an Espresso drink for the other table, and I gotta admit, it smelled really good. The only reason I'd come back is to try their coffee based drinks and see the view (please see videos). This is the kind of place that you go to if you want to escape the crowds and the noise, don't know how it is at night or during the weekends though. If I ever decide to come back, I wouldn't dare come alone.

DELIVERY DURING THE LOCKDOWN: I haven't had any bubble tea…read moreor specialty coffee drinks since the lockdown, so today, we wanted to treat ourselves. We ordered through foodpanda and it arrived safe and sound without any spillage. They did an excellent job taping up the cups and securing it in the bag with a cardboard holder. Extra points for having the straw in a sealed plastic wrapper. I was happy with my ice blended mocha drink; it had good flavor and it wasn't overly sweet. I will definitely order from them again. BEFORE THE COVID-19 LOCKDOWN: What a lovely place to chill! Lots of different seating options: from comfy lounge chairs and half booths, to outdoor wicker chairs shaded with patio umbrellas. Staff are friendly and work hard keeping the place clean. They can be seen washing windows and wiping down tables. Menu isn't extensive, but they do have a good variety. Their iced teas are very mild; but I did enjoy their floral teas (Southern Blend & Pomegranate Blueberry). Next time, I'll request that they steep the tea longer. I appreciate that they are light handed in adding sweetener. I had a slice of their chocolate cake which was too dense, and had frosting that was too sugary sweet. If it's not too hot, the second floor patio is an excellent place to escape the crowd. There are lots of patio umbrellas to shade you from the sun, and you can see all the way to the mountains. The hum of the traffic and the occasional buzzing from an airplane were relaxing sounds, as my hubby and I enjoyed each other's company. Looks like people like to work/study here. This one person had set up an entire work station on one table, and even brought in their own extension cord to hook up all their electronics. Located in the Clark Auto Zone Plaza, look for the red Kia Motors sign, they're on the opposite end. If you get hungry, there's a Yellow Cab and Pancake House next door.

Unlike most if not all Filipinos I know, I do not need or eat rice with every meal, so I tend to go for burgers, sandwiches and such. I've been eating at McDonalds & Burger King and although it is familiar and enjoyable, I must say at this point of my vacation it's getting old. I stumbled upon Charlie's and had a delicious breakfast. So I went back there again to try more of their menu. I'm so glad I did because they have many dishes that will satisfy someone with similar tastes as I do. (and if rice is your thing, they have it and you can have it with your meal) Next time I'm staying in Clark, I will come back again for sure. By the way, they have excellent coffee & desserts.

WE ORDERED Breakfast - tapa chewy - pancake dry - hash brown crispy but oily - egg undercooked - store bought sliced bread Lunch - Hamburger which comes with fries - patty was dry and edges hard while the bun was super tough like it was microwaved too long. - (Imitation) Crab and Mango salad - wilted and dressing bland - Strawberry cheesecake is microscopic. Very dense, reminds me of a New York cheesecake. Decent taste but pricey. - Hazelnut iced latte - not bad The only things I would come back for would be for coffee and dessert. During the day, it's a lovely place to chill out for a bit. Squeezed in between Envy Bistro and Hammer Disco Night Club, next to the Fields walking Street arch, and across the trike terminal.
