    Not too crowded when we came around 11am. This is a small Starbucks bit it has that old and cozy ambience. The service folks are fast and drinks ready on a jiff.

    (Translated by Google) Very friendly shop, especially in security work here! ! ! The store is smaller than the other nearby Starbucks and more! Not many can buy souvenirs (Original) 非常不友善的店,尤其是在這裡上班的保安!!!這家店比鄰近的另一星巴克小多了!可買的紀念品也不多

    Even if its on a crossing, this place is not that busy on a Sunday. Quite cozy and theres enough chairs to seat. Got a nice view of Manila from where I seat.

    Although not as huge as other Starbucks branches in the metro, this store is one of the most popular, I think, simply because of its location (at the interesection between Taft and Vito; just below the LRT Station). Surrounded by universities, this branch is a usual rendezvous for students. Went here at 9:30 AM and the service was pretty fast.

    In every establishment, more than the interior design and the food it serves, the mood and atmosphere is generally defined by the actual crowd that visit, stays, hang out, and comes back to it. Here at Torre Lorenzo one can feel young again, most if not all are students hanging out, busy with school excesses or not. Restroom is always clean. Staff seem to be always excited to serve. Smoking area always has a vacant table. Cool place to pause for a while.

    A great cafe in a nice location. Nice indoor and outdoor sitting. Service staffs friendly and quick. But this place can be crowded most of the time because its located next to University.

  • 5/5 Claudine M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to hangout with friends. Other good things are as follows: Student friendly - lots of electrical sockets are available for you to plug in device chargers. Near DLSU and the Vito Cruz LRT Station. The baristas are nice, accommodating and very knowledgeable about their products. They are open until 12MN. The place could get crowded but not as noisy as other crowded Starbucks branches I've been to. Outdoor seating is also available but expect roadside noise.

    Inaccessible wheelchair ramp. Idk how does a wheelchair works with its ramp that's too elevated same with strollers? Based on my experience brought my baby stroller, seen by the SG but doesn't care to give a hand. A lot of times I've been there but no warm welcomes/leave greetings. Too ungrateful employees inc SG. Everytime I went to grab something my little lad was there with me but how on earth people are impatient with this little lad who was roaming around in every corner in the shop due to his curiosity? I am offended with this kind of event. Eventually, was approached by the staff in a way that is unacceptable for me for the very first time in my 12 years of patronizing this loving coffee, I regretted it now.. A Not-child-friendly environment. We'll never visit the store again. Added list for marked "x" store branches to avoid visiting from now on.

  • 5/5 Yushra K. 1 year ago on Google
    Oh yes! Starbucks is one of my go-to places to spend my me time and to converse with my friends. Was going to try their newly launched strawberry drinks, however, it wasn't available when we visited. Nonetheless, the experience was still good as always. A little sad their coffee shops are only open until midnight. Not related but stan loona and treasure!

  • 5/5 Phil 1 year ago on Google
    The staff is very helpful in clarifying the promotions that they offer. I'm looking forward to visit this branch again in the near future.

    November 20, 2022. 9:20 pm. My order (hot chocolate) was ready for several minutes but the server wasn't calling my name. Others who were behind me at the queue had gotten their orders. What was the guy waiting for??

  • 4/5 Ed E. 1 year ago on Google
    This branch are also crowded during office hours and classes because of the universities and condominium near the area but I loved this place during late night not crowded, when I'm living near the area before.

  • 4/5 Jon Emmanuel M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place but cant help but feel like the security guard wanted me out of that place quick. Visited during rainy weather. Hence, wet clothes. Probably why.

  • 5/5 chel c. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is really great i love that the store is cold. So many customers are visiting this place bec its near the schools

  • 3/5 Tiago S. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful and friendly staff. The place is quite packed. Table spacing is close and patrons walking by can easily bump on you. Outside spacing is similar plus the noise from the road intersection. Good place to just get quick coffee fix.

  • 5/5 Arbi B. 9 months ago on Google
    Baristas knew their stuff when asked about coffee. Americano tasted well prepared especially when asked for a ristretto, and even suggested how to make an order better for next time. Convenient place to grab coffee from when you have a game to watch in Rizal Memorial stadium.

  • 5/5 Peter R. 5 months ago on Google
    Starbucks Torre Lorenzo provides great service, and I appreciate that they allow outside food in the outdoor area. A welcoming spot to enjoy your favorite coffee

  • 5/5 Keyk G. 5 months ago on Google
    It's not packed when I visited maybe because of the holidays. The baristas are really nice and cute. Ordered my favorite triple mocha!

    As always with Starbucks, they have the nicest baristas, nicest staff. With the current regulations of wearing a face mask, they were kind to offer a bag to store your mask while enjoying your food and drinks. All branches seem to do that, so yey SB. This one was friendly and attentive and extra. ❤️

    I love Iced shaken black tea with strawberry. Every time I will stay at SB while doing my work I feel VIP because of the treatment of the staff. Sometimes it’s a bit disappointing to buy drinks when the shop are full of students.

    Ambience: This cafe easily gets crowded considering it's at a big intersection, near the LRT Station & universities, and many people somehow love expensive coffee if not just the ambience. Ambience is good for studying. Listen to music if you don't want to hear everyone else. Bring your chargers. Make sure chargers can reach the sockets. Please SHARE the sockets. Beverages: The Roasted Marshmallow S’mores (May 2017) Frappuccino is back and delicious as ever! It's a very sweet beverage that I enjoy consuming at a steady pace. Water on the side balances everything. I still feel fruity flavors make perfect summer beverages but this one's very addicting. The Midnight Mocha Frappuccino (April 2018) Darkness of the beverage was intriguing so I gave it a shot. On photo, it's nice! Judging by the taste, it's hardly any different from the Dark Mocha Frappucino. Sticking to the predecessor makes more sense after this first try. The Tea-ramisu Frappucino (April 2018) It's got whipped cream and matcha crumbs that I loved eating off the straw. The matcha was creamy, tasty, addicting, and more interesting than their Green Tea Cream Frappucino. My eyes are locked on the Midnight Mocha Frappucino. Pastries: Chocolate Babka (Non-Kosher) is a heavy serving of bread and Belgian chocolate. I feel this should be shared. It's really that heavy, and YES it's good!

👍👍 Authentic place! Really great food. The best was the shrimps dumpling. But all other dishes were good. The service was great and the menu was well explained by the waiters. The tea was perfect with the food. Recommend! Hopefully, we can visit again once in Philippines.

🫤 The place needs a deep cleaning and update. I saw roaches crawling around on multiple occasions. Additionally the pool tables are a centerpiece to the bar and are not maintained well at all.
