Proper Coffee in Makati Area
Yardstick Coffee
Address
Universal LMS Building, 106 Esteban, Makati, Metro Manila
Ambiance/Facilities
We head over to this nice cafe after our brunch which is a quick walk from Wildflour (see other post below). Finding a good coffee is huuuuge for me so I’m really happy when I get to try Yardstick.
The cafe looks like a muji minimalist style with specialty coffee selection. However, they have limited dining seat and it can get really busy.. though we got lucky we still got some seats.
Overall, I dont think the cafe looks very appealing to stay and hang out (compared to other cafes I’ve tried) but if you’re looking for a quick coffee run, then this is a must try!
Highlights
I asked the cashier for a coffee recommendation since it’s my first time. She suggested Oat Caramel Latte and it’s a perfect pick for those who like their coffee sweet. She also explained their different coffee blends.😄
Avg. Price per Person - ₱200

The Perfect Spot to Have Brunch in Makati
Wildflour Café + Bakery - Rada
Address
Ground Floor, Frabelle Business Center 111, Rada, Legazpi Village, Makati, 1229 Metro Manila
Ambiance/Facilities
If you’re looking for a restaurant to have brunch, then this is a recommended place to try.
Wildflour has other branches in Makati such as Rockwell and Salcedo and each one has its unique vibe. I’ve tried the two already and I must say the Rada brunch has a more relaxed vibe and smaller compared to the two branches. Nonetheless, they maintained excellent service and the food is superb!
I really like their Croque Madame. The serving is a bit big for me so I only get to finish half of it then I opted to take out the other half.
Highlights
- Aesthetically appealing
- Great food selection for brunch
Avg. Price per Person - ₱400 to ₱600

Not a Bad Cafe to Have Coffee
Bad Cafe
Address
Windsor Tower, Unit 101-A, 163 Legazpi Street, Legazpi Village, Makati, 1223
Ambiance/Facilities
The cafe is situated at the heart of Makati - an easy walk around the Legaspi area. If you’re looking for a chill place to hang out & to have conversations with friends, this is a must-visit. Their FAST FREE WIFI is a good bonus if you’re looking for a place where you can do some work, too.
In terms of food, they have plenty of selection bites ranging from breakfast, snacks, and also lunch/dinner. We’ve tried their Potato and Salmon Crochet which I absolutely enjoyed. For coffee, we ordered a Spanish Latte and a Cold Brew.
Overall, definitely NOT a bad cafe to be in if you’re looking for a caffeine boost in between your daily grind.
Highlights
- Spanish Latte 100% Recommended
- Fast Free WIFI
- Power outlets are plenty available (digital nomads, rejoice!)

A bit modern Spanish flavor in Makati
Las Flores
Address - Level 1, 3 Greenbelt Dr, Makati, 1228 Metro Manila,l
Ambiance/Facilities - This Spanish restaurant is situated in the green nature of greenbelt park. If it isn’t too hot then you can sit outside and feel part of nature while throwing some Spanish flavored food over your taste buds. If you are not up for the heat then you can sit inside the modern styled restaurant. The menu is very interesting with a different style from the usual restaurant. For my visit we took a Mix Platter with a salmon & salmon plate.
Highlights - The interesting food and the location of the restaurant is very convenient.
Avg. Price per Person - For food and a drink 1300 peso

The John Barbers Groomers
Address - Glorietta BPO 2 Building, Palm Dr, Makati, Kalakhang Maynila - at the Ascott Hotel
Ambiance/Facilities - This barber and groomer has a very vintage and styling feel to them. It has a up market style and you feel very welcome when entering this nice barber shop. Their seats is very comfortable and with some nice comfy music in the background. You can take a haircut, style your beard or shave. What is nice that while sitting in your chair they can turn you around and wash your hair. The barber also pays a lot of attention to details when cutting your hair. They also put a face mask on your face after you have shaved and with all that they will give you a nice head massage. For my full experience from haircut, fully shaved beard and head massage I paid 3000 peso.

Sagubat,Start your day with a tasty breakfast
Address - Sagubat - 2111 Urban Ave, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines next to the Red Planet Amorsolo hotel.
Ambiance/Facilities - This Restuarant has a vintage look to it. You can feel the old vibes with a new twist to it. I came for breakfast while catching up with work. They have a few items on the item that looked really tasty what made it very difficult for me to choose. I decided to go for the corn egg breakfast and it was so delicious. They are open at night and I think they will have a nice vibe when they have some people singing there as well. will have to visit them for dinner as well.
