Went after dinner on a Saturday night and was surprised that the place was not packed. Good for us! Great alternative to the usual Starbucks or CBTL. I claimed 2 Booky Deals and only paid a total of ₱179 for 2 White Cold Brew and a Chocolate Chip Cookie, both of which I have ordered before in another branch and thoroughly enjoyed.
I asked the cookie to be served warm and it was deliciously sweet, chewy in the center and slightly crisp on the edges as I expected. Yummy and a steal at ₱49 instead of ₱80 via the Booky App. I would be willing to pay the full price anytime though, I’ve added this cookie to my favorites list.
As for the cold brew, you have a choice of black or white and having a sweet tooth, I always go for the white variant. This time I even asked for one of the 2 to have double the syrup (standard is 20ml) and they accommodated it. It’s perfectly fine without the additional syrup but sometimes I really like my coffee sweeter than strong. Regular price is ₱130 each but Buy 1 Get 1 via Bookyapp.
The other deal is for the Flat White, though I didn’t avail it this visit, pay only ₱99 instead of ₱170. So all in all there are 3 ongoing deals in the Booky App for Toby’s Estate.
The place is small but charming with pretty floral / tropical murals on their walls and sturdy beautiful wooden furniture/ tables with comfortable couches on each side of the room.
I see on the menu board that they don’t only serve coffee and pastries in this branch but other savory dishes too though I have yet to try them.
I’ve tried the famous Calamansi Pie before and yes, it’s good. So is the Pistachio one. The Original and Banana Bucky’s as well.
(Another) Tip: Download their free Toby’s Estate app like I did to immediately receive a 20% discount e-voucher and also so you can start earning points. You can input my referral code: DDJGV4. I don’t really know what you and I are gonna get when you do so LOL, but I’m assuming/hoping, we’ll both get extra points hehe. Nothing to lose!
One of my favorite coffee shops in Manila. I love ordering the dessert, espresso, and the flat white. Ambiance is cozy...
The only thing I don’t like about this place is the service. People are apathetic and slow. I suggest they get customer experience training.:)
long black is very nice and strong. just the way coffee should be. anyone who likes milder coffee can easily add water but those who love them strong can't do anything with watered down bland coffee right? nice that they have food (pasta and sandwiches) as well as the faster to prepare pies.
Very nice piccolo latte! From the food menu, I didn’t try much, but Toby’s salmon bagel is extremely delicious. You can choose bagel among three types of bagels they have, and cream cheese (also three types).
My good friend and I came from a food/drinking event at a nearby restaurant which was done before midnight and knowing me I would want to take in something for the road. Thus, Toby's Estate.
Both of us read Chai Chocolate on the overhead menu, sounded good so, my friend ordered the hot prep and I, the cold one.
Yes, Chai Chocolate was good. It had this light spice flavor that, I think, is better off when served hot. Good one, Toby's Estate.
Went for dinner last night and I was in love with their Bucky Original! The chocolate is melting in my mouth!!! For our meal we order Mushroom Pasta and Braised Chicken In Wine. Meal was delicious but nothing special and the portion kinda small. I’m sure I will back for their cake again.
Toby’s Estate has been always on top of my most favorite coffee shops in Metro Manila. Aside from their delicious food and great legit coffee, I also like their Hot Chocolate.
St. Louis in High Street Central might be my #1 when it comes to the Best Hot Chocolate, but Toby’s Estate’s came close as the 2nd best on my list.
I like the rich texture and the flavor that’s not overly sweet. The chocolate flavor is more prominent than the others. Bottomline is - the consistency of their drinks (not just with their coffee, but all of their drinks).
I also tried the bagels on this visit and I like to pair it with cream cheese. Go for the sundried tomato bagels and jalapeno cheddar cheese and you’ll surely love it too!
This place is conducive to do work - it’s quiet and has a few outlets around
I have been watching some Youtube blogs lately and a certain blogger has been singing high praises for Toby's estate in Manila. I decided to try out the coffee shop and restaurant over at Shangri-la at the Fort. I heard one of the most popular drinks was the Flat White. It was very good. I drink a lot of coffee and it did not seem too strong. The White milk mixed in with the espresso was more delightful when mixed in with their brown sugar. I also had a Tuna melt, and that was good too. It was the right portion, but was a little messy. The Mini potato chips included was interesting, have not seen that before in the states. One thing I did notice was that flies were all around my table. I think it would be a wise investment to get a door fan to blow out flies that come in to the restaurant. Service was good and attentive. Not a problem there. Overall 4 stars, I wish I knew about this place sooner in my latest trip.
Love the ambience. A lot of people there were reading or on their laptops.
The Iced Mocha was perfect to go with the Bruce Bogtrotter cake. The Capuccino was delicious. They offer Splenda for people who can't take sugar.

Blueberry Bagel and Carrot Cake dabest!
For coffee, you can't go wrong with Flat White or Mocha. Ambience of all Toby's is always good for a laidback afternoon.
Price point would be expectedly higher compared to local, more common coffee chains but value for money sya.
