TeaSpoon Cafe Juan Luna Branch

In Manila, this is one of my favorite cafes. I adore how diverse their menu is. Pastries, rice meals, hamburgers, veggie salads, frappes, etc. are available.

The cafe has two floors and can accommodate a sizable crowd. Although the store's exterior and interior designs are really attractive, I wish the air conditioning was colder.

We've been here 5 times so far, mainly because of the ambiance. The warm lighting sets the perfect mood for relaxing or having a good chat.

The food is hit or miss, but there are some reliable options. Their bacon fries are good, and the kare-kareng bagnet is definitely worth ordering. Don't skip their classic choco drink either.

One would be hard pressed to find a spacious airconditioned resto with aesthetic fine dining feels on this side of Tondo.

This is the first time I feel, compare to other coffee shops. Lol, masyadong relax servers niyo, can also hear them mag murahan sa ground floor. But food is great, thanks bye!

This place has an undeniably cute aesthetic, prices are definitely budget-friendly. However, many food items sell out early, which is frustrating lalo if matagal ka pumila.
The queueing line is too long for average food. Also, the ambiance isn't great – very noisy with children running around, and for some reason, I could hear everyone's footsteps from the second floor! The portions are small, and the food is unremarkable (apart from the decent cheesecake). It's a fast-food ordering system but with slow service. The self-service setup is very disorganized and plastic cups for their service …
