I've been eyeing this place ever since it popped up, but since it's located all the way in…read moreMcKinley Hill.............*crickets* which in my mind is hard to get to if you commute, and convenient if you have a car (which I don't!). I took the opportunity to find these bagels when my work meeting was situated nearby and I was forced to get my butt to McKinley Hill. I went here for a bagel and instead I got a veggie sandwich because it seemed like a better, heartier choice for someone who is HANGRY. It came with artichokes (which didn't really taste much like anything, but doesn't it make the sandwich description seem much fancier? And the price, higher? I mean at 230 pesos for a veggie sandwich, I would expect rainbows coming out of every bite). I had the mayo replaced with mustard so it's vegan, and the mustard really improved the flavor, as I would imagine if it was mayo it would be bland and tad bit disappointing. The slice of wheat sandwich bread was really soft and beautiful, but it became soggy quite quickly. Guess there's a reason why this place isn't named L.E.S. Sandwiches, because the bagels are really glorious (and vegan!). I decided to get a cinnamon raisin bagel to go, and I'm glad I did because it was really worth the Php60 price tag. It was flavorful, dense and chewy (in a good way), and quite sizeable, too. What a beautiful bagel! If only they would open a branch in Makati... and if they came up with vegan-friendly version of their cream cheese dips...or hummus! I'd be so happy.

Was never a fan of bagels until I tried LES Bagels. The gelato-like presentation of the cream…read morecheese choices is enough to make me ditch all my high-fat, high-carb bagel fears. Lox, black pepper truffle, garlic and chives, blueberry -- spread 'em thickly on my all-wheat bagel, please!! And guess what, they do fulfill your cream cheese dreams here - get ready a thick, thick, thick bed of cream cheese in between your sliced bagel. And of course, we must talk about the bagel. Probably the best in Manila. Really good texture and flavor. Not bland, not overpowering, just the right punch to complement your cream cheese choice. My favorites? Lox + all-wheat bagel and their blueberry cream cheese + chocolate bagel. Just one rant, though: the place can feel a bit stuffy even with the aircon on full blast. But yeah, good thing their bagels distract from this every single time.

For a person who has a full set of sweet teeth, this place is definitely a treat. I always drop by…read morethis place to grab a quick bite or to bring home a box for my family. I usually order either Sno Board or Triple Choco Boom. The former is quite the best of both worlds. It's topped with a vanilla flavored spread and candy sprinkles but the best part is the filling - half is filled with bavarian cream while the other with chocolate. While Triple Choco Boom is definitely something chocolate lovers will enjoy - chocolate bread covered and topped with even more chocolate! Best part of this place is that they sell everything marked down by 20% once the clock reaches 5pm. This is usually the time when I get off from the office and just head here and treat myself to all the discounted sweet and sugary goodness.

I've always had good memories of Dunkin' Donuts. I relate their munchkins with elementary school…read morepotlucks, their croissants with homey family breakfasts, and their donuts with an afternoon pasalubong pick-me-up from the folks. It's why it fills me with unnecessary, beaming pride when I introduce to friends the 24/7 Dunkin' Donuts in our area of Aurora-Balete. It's been there as far back as I can remember, and even though now DD's strawberry candy sprinkles only cover a fraction of the donut and choco butternut has been relegated to being a "premium" donut (no more do they join your regular box of munchkins), I still come back regularly to the local DD for a bite. They're pretty spacious and quiet enough, considering they're beside a main avenue. It's an evening oasis as there are few else businesses near it that would be open--just the gasoline station beside it and the convenience store across the street. It's perfect for a post-last full show dessert coming from Magnolia, an alternative to your usual coffee places for your study session, or a midnight jaunt for a late night pig-out.

You people don't know what you're missing out on!!! I don't deny the deliciousness of the said donut brands, but nothing can touch Dunkin' Donuts in my opinion. These are the cream of the crop for me when it comes to donut brands and taste and smell and appearance. It's also super affordable but there just aren't enough visible branches in the city. Get strawberry sprinkle, choice butternut, sugar raised, bavarian, and Boston Kreme. Hello heaven!

This is easily the biggest Starbucks I've ever been to. The space alone is impressive, but what…read morereally stood out to me was how nice everyone was. I'm from Orange County, California, and I'm honestly not used to this level of hospitality. The baristas here were some of the kindest I've ever met. They were super polite, friendly, and really helpful without feeling rushed at all. My Lola is a regular here, so it was really nice getting to see a part of her everyday routine while we were visiting for the month. It made the experience feel more personal and special. Between the size, the service, the delicious drinks, and the overall vibe, this Starbucks Reserve is definitely worth stopping by if you're in BGC!

Mas maraming donuts, mas maraming "food to share" kaya mas maraming friendships! Miss Congeniality! Pakak! Gusto ko yung Munchkins kasi kada kagat, ibang lasa!

After having dinner in matalino St., my SO and I were driving around looking for dessert. We were…read moreconsidering Starbucks but we didn't like to have anything with caffeine that night. Then we noticed the Dunkin Donuts right across it. PROS: My SO and I just love Dunkin Donuts' Munchkins! It reminds us of our 90's kids childhoods where our respective parents would get us a box of those. It must be working for a lot more people than just the two of us because they haven't changed the way they package the Munchkins, even the characters in front of the box! CONS: There's usually just one staff here who's spaces out a lot; They always have something that's out of stock. Their pastries are even stale. We had the choco-butternut recently and it was as dry as cat litter. TL;DR: We come here for the munchkins. But otherwise, we don't really care for Dunkin Donuts. Especially this branch.
