    A very relaxing place. The drinks are okayy but the ambiance is really good. A very ideal place to study.

    Coffee isn't bad - just hard to get to and seating is somewhat uncomfortable.

    Very similar to other Coffee Bean branches, except that here, its has a "glass house" which they open whenever the main shop is filled with customers. The staff are amazingly courteous & dependable. During our visit, i ordered a regular slice of rocky road cake & asked that it be cut it into half & discard the other half (which btw would result in a thin slice of cake). The staff smiled & clarified if she heard me right. I replied: "yes please, i want it in half because i had exceeded my sugar intake for the day." And voila ๐Ÿ’ซ the other staff meticulously did as i wanted my cake without much ado & with a smiling face.

    Delicious single origin small lot coffee. A friend introduced me to the La Palma which is sweet, almost fruity. The cold brew is velvety smooth and punchy. Popular with freelancers, almost looks like a coworking space. AC and acoustics could be better though.

    Yardstick is a very comforting place for me. The large and airy interior and the minimalist design makes it a great place to work in. Aside from their delicious baked goods, Iโ€™m also a fan of their cold brews to go. They offer different kinds to suit varying tastes. These make for a great pick-me-up during workdays.

    I think they have quite good coffee selection but not much for food. Not a great idea to go there when you're hungry. But I like the wide tables, you'll definitely have enough space for you laptop

  • 5/5 Erich P. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a serious coffee shop. The beans are sensibly roasted and Yardstick has the proper machinery and skills to process the beans into great coffee. Just discovered and already my favourite in Makati.

  • 3/5 Ephemeral F. 4 years ago on Google
    It's overrated and over priced. I expected more given the reputation it has but it felt like a failed attempt at minimalism. The food and coffee were alright but not nearly worth the cost. The ambiance was sub-par but the crew were friendly and the service was quick.

    Good coffee nice and strong! They have breakfast options, sandwiches and pasta also in addition to the desert display cabinet. The staff are very friendly always greeting you with a smile in the morning. The A/C is turned up really cold though, a good thing during a hot day but not in the morning when it makes your breakfast cold.

    Good coffee. Delicious food. Friendly staff. Low-key industrial decor. I love this place. They also sell coffee beans and coffee making supplies.

  • 3/5 Ryan 4 years ago on Google
    Nice pour over coffee. Single origin is a bit pricey though compared to others. Don't expect much on the ambiance and interior because it feels like you're in a garage with seats and tables. My wife also tried the mocha, but I personally didn't like, I just think that the chocolate overpowers the coffee too much that you may think that you're drinking hot choco. It's worth a try though for coffee aficionados. The service is so so. The guy who took my order is not very welcoming and feels like he wants me to leave because I don't belong there.

  • 5/5 Christelle P. 5 years ago on Google
    great coffee and breakfast place to stay and chill. they also offer classes to learn more about coffee

  • 4/5 Jonathan L. 4 years ago on Google
    Delicious pour over coffee from various foreign single origins. Nicely served in a beaker, wooden tray, and with a small card describing the coffee bean variant you ordered. The barista politely and gladly answered my query on his water to beans ratio. They're a bit pricey though per cup compared to other equally delicious specialty coffee shops. And sadly, they don't champion our local coffee beans. The wooden tables are adequate and have a nice height for leisure or work. The stools though are not comfortable. A little foam upholstery would've been nice. Overall, good place to visit.

  • 4/5 Joseph Ceazar B. 6 years ago on Google
    My friend and I tried this coffee place after dining at Your Local. The ambiance is very hip and young. It looks more like a study place than a coffee shop. My friend ordered a matcha drink, according to him the small serving is like those served in Japan.

  • 5/5 James 4 years ago on Google
    I would recommend getting an espresso-based drink instead of a pour over. I think you get more value out of your money that way. The hand brewed items on the menu are a bit pricey, but I guess it's worth it to some consumers. If you want a good pour over coffee at a better price, head over to Curator, just a few blocks away.

  • 4/5 Dora C. 4 years ago on Google

    No WiFi unless you sign loyalty card. No toilet seat...

  • 5/5 Josh G. 6 years ago on Google
    Typical CBTL, plenty of students or people working/studying. Very quiet but at times, it gets noisy as big groups stay here, which is no longer conducive for studying. Their staff are nice in general and are happy to give recommendations of drinks and meals. Their wifi is so-so, depends on the amount of people using I guess. The beverage they serve here is really good, the coffee is good, not burnt at all, they serve it without sugar and you can ask for sugar for it to adjust to your preference. The second floor has a good smoking area. Also, nice choice of music. Not pop at all.

  • 4/5 Dean Edward D. 6 years ago on Google

    this place is just beside erra's ramen. its open until 3am this is our go to place after a night of drinking. oftentimes there are a lot of students and yuppies here doing their work or just studying. its still a good place to chill. There are times that they open up the glasshouse which is really pretty in the afternoon even though the airconditioning is not that cool the ambiance is really relaxing.
