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.
