Bang-for-your-buck ice cream! If their coffee is as good and flavorful as their soft-serve gelato made from carabao milk - you bet I'll try it the next time I'm in Pasay, not to mention, the really cheap cakes and pastries! My SIL recommended this place and she got me their vanilla and chocolate combo gelato. What's surprising is that we ordered takeout, walked in the 12:00 heat to the parking area, traversed the EDSA Saturday traffic to get to QC and the gelato stood frozen through it all. The serving's really big for the 55-peso price, I will definitely go back for more.
We decided to have dessert and our officemate recommended the ice cream from this place that used carabao milk.
The pricing of the ice cream is cheap. Their smallest costs P55 and it was huge (more like large from other ice cream shops). There's also a smaller P35 that I didn't know about until I got my order.
There are two flavors: chocolate and vanilla, but you can have them mixed, which I did and regret. The chocolate tasted so strong and typical, and I wasn't able to taste the vanilla that much. Judging from the little vanilla that I was able to taste, think I would've liked that better.
I'll definitely try just the vanilla next time, I have a huge feeling that it's worth another try.
Manila's Best Coffee is a 'local' coffee shop that brews up local coffee beans to pair up with not your usual sweets, local rice cakes. It is truly a Filipino concept not only by name.
We availed of the Buy 1, Take 1 ice blended drink. I got the Coconut Mango ice blended. It was a sweet, fruity shake with a strong coconuty-fruity flavor from the coconut cream with sweet mangoes as a form of a puree.
I kind of like the whole concept, but for my drink it was okay. I would rather appreciate if they would use fresh coconut juice plus some coconut cream to have that natural taste.
I would like to return for their coffee drinks.

Been passing through here everytime I am at Blue Bay Walk and find it always full. I find it interesting for this coffee shop to promote the Filipino brew. The interiors are very comfortable and showcasing beans and designs of the Filipino.
We were looking for a sweet ending to our meal so we decided to drop by. My wife ordered the Tea Latte. The teas is an Indian-based tea and has a strong cardamon flavor. I just tried the Karaleto, a carabao milk soft-served gelato. I wanted like a really small sample so I ordered the regular. It was like a cup of gelato that is pressed into the cup. Great and refreshing taste. For only Php55, this is a truly worth it.

Following a 4 hour wait long from a wedding to the reception, we had to find a decent place along Manila where we wouldn't be judged wearing a gown for myself and coat and tie for my boyfriend while having a good cup of coffee to kill the sleepiness. Unfortunately, we were still judged. We had no idea how many families spend their afternoons here on a Sunday afternoon just playing around the large grass area of Blue wave. On the brighter side, we found a gem in Manila's Best Coffee shop!
We thought for the averagely cheap price, our caffeine fix would be a disaster, we were wrong.
I ordered the MBC Signature Caramel Biscuit, their version of the Frappuccino. The coffee was on the sweeter side but the ice was so smoothly shaved that it didn't feel ice blended. It felt like I was sipping ice cream with really small biscuit dusts. It was delicious! I don't remember finishing a cup of coffee that fast!
My boyfriend ordered a hot caramel macchiato which turned out to be really good too. The foam was thick but it had that good blend of sweetness and coffee.
While we were not able to try any of the food, what was interesting was the very Filipino dessert options you can choose from. Very enticing to be served bibingka or ube with your choice of drink!
Everything would've been perfect since the location even offers free parking to customers.
If you want a great place to people watch with a good cup of coffee, I highly suggest Manila's Best Coffee!
Went here earlier for the first time and in all fairness, it did not disappoint. We got the best-sellers Java Chip and Toffee Mocha. SO GOOD! It has a unique taste. I believe it's because they use local coffee/cocoa, not a hundred percent sure though hihi. Prices are noticeably cheaper than other over-rates cafés. Sizes are called visayas, mindanao and luzon which cost about 95-125php i think. The place was okay, but i saw some flies roaming around.
Will def go back and bring some friends along. :)
Oh and they sell icecream made from cow's milk, too. Would want to try it next time.
Cool coffeshop. From the terms they used on their cup sizes are very cool. Vis (small), Luz (medium), Min (large) very unique and filipino-inspired. I ordered Ice Blended Java Chip blended whip one of their Specialty Blended Latte the taste is awesome for me, well-balanced from the sweetness down to the taste of the coffee are well blended and the price is very reasonable and competitive. Two thumbs up for Manila's Best Coffee..
Good drink for a good price. Very affordable.
What makes this coffee place a 4 is that it patronizes Filipino's local drinks and maybe its resources come from the islands of the Philippines.
When it comes to food, they do serve merienda items which are also Filipino delicasies.
A must visit store for those who would want to have a break and prolly taste a new different kind of beverage. 👏👏👍
I was here one rainy night, waiting for the traffic to pass on. I love the place. Very cozy. The songs they play are OPM. Good thing to know that they support local artists as its name says something about our country. I tried their rocky road. I really liked it! Their serving and price goes together. Really affordable! However, this is not the best coffee i had yet. So it was just good. I also tried their ice cream and cookies and cream. I liked them both! The staff are accommodating. The place is also clean. I would still love to come back!
affordable coffee! rarely do you see a coffee shop in metro manila offering brewed or espresso coffee at only Php 50 per cup. The coffee though was a bit sour for my taste... maybe the beans they used were just not to my liking.
you can also order philippine pastries like kakanin and puto to enjoy with your coffee! I think this is a great place to have some coffee with foreign guests so you can also give them a chance to try these local delicacies.
Nice. Clean. Quiet. Perfect airconditioning, good playlist. Great place for catching up, killing time, watching people, or studying. Must try: Cafe Mocha!
Nice, quiet place to spend time. It took less than 5 minutes to serve our orders, not bad for a coffee shop. The coffee is good, but i recommend that you try the "batirol."
