On the hunt for coffee shops or places I can work in, I stumbled upon Neighborhood Game Cafe one lazy and hot Wednesday morning. After scouring the area for the available coffee shops in my vicinity, I decided to head over there. I arrived approximately 10:23am and they were open but the door was locked, they had to open for me. Apparently I’m the first and only customer of their day.
The interior is absolutely stunning. There are a lot of natural light, contrasting but soft color tones pleasing to the eyes, and well spaced furnitures. The flow of the room is very open and natural. I sat in a little corner table because I think that is where the plug is. Though it is beside a curtained off section which has high tables. Perhaps they opened it up when there were more people. I grabbed their menu as I walked past the counter towards my table for the next few hours. The ambience, further softened by relaxing local OPM music (Respect), was very relaxing, almost sleepy.
The staff was friendly. I got their wifi, yay. I ordered their French Toast (Salted Egg Custard type). It comes in a rustic caste iron pan and it looked delicious. The toast was quite big. I could smell the powdered sugary goodness from my seat. It was still warm and it makes your mouth water. The toast is a two-layer bread with the classic Filipino favorite sugar and butter in between. It is topped with a salted egg custard on top. Verdict: yum. Next time they could make the bread thinner though because its current thickness does not allow the french toast’s trademark rich creamy flavor to seep in. In effect, it is like eating half a french toast and half pinoy sandwich. I enjoyed it very much though! Thanks to the salted egg, it was not too sweet, almost savory. Yummm.
BY THE WAY, their French Toast comes with a free coffee or hot chocolate if you order it between 9-11am.
Plus it’s affordable. Will definitely return for their other items.
Food: 4.5/5
Interior: 5/5 (aside from the place only having a small table with socket)
Service: 4/5 (not exactly the happiest but I don’t blame them)
Value for Money; 4.5/5
Its a nice place. I went here with my bf kasi I wanted a quality time, yung may bonding, not just eating. Madaming games pero sana nalilinis ng maayos saka yung iba kulang kulang na, say yung sungka, kulang ng shells pero ang substitute earrings saka 5cents. Haha. Its quite pricey, sana medyo dagdagan din yung serving size. Food is good too.
Nice and cozy place. Best place to spend time with kids. Food are superb. Parking is free. The chicken wings are so delicious that’s why its their best sellers. And one thing more, all day breakfast with coffee is to die for super sarap filipino dish
