The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf

My benchmark commercial espresso coffee shop serves consistently good tasting, crema-rich espresso drinks. The only advantage the most popular coffee chain has on CBTL is speed. In CBTL, you gotta wait a while for your order. Hence, the remote pagers they give you.Which brings me to another point. If you prefer a more conducive place to meet or study, CBTL beats the popular brand too where the din is exacerbated by baristas screaming customers' orders. At CBTL, it's quieter as they just page you.If you prefer tea, CBTL gives a number of options a well (tho I can't comment on that as I am a coffee person, thank you).If you're hungry beyond their cakes and pastries, you can try their very decent pasta offerings.And if you become a member of their Swirl club, you not just earn points for use as credit on your food or drink order, but you also get access to their in-house wifi anytime.

I visited this branch last mother's day with my mom for her steaming hot tea fix after a hearty lunch feast.Tbh, we first opted for Starbucks in Greenbelt 1 but the place was full so I took her here instead.She ordered a cup of hot green tea which we found okay-ish. Delicious but not to the point of extraordinary.The interiors of this branch is much better than the ones in Southmall. Seats are placed within a reasonable distance from one another, and there are electricity outlets that the customers can use.The staff are warm and welcoming. Although it might take a bit long for you to get your order (especially on weekends), still a good place for a drink of tea or coffee and some ambience.The tea: 4/5Place: 4/5Staff: 4.5/5

I enjoy staying at their GB branch as it has a relaxing ambience. And it’s usually less crowded here than the other nearby coffee shops. I love their food. I usually order the eggs ben, but was surprised that the scrambled egg with salmon tasted great. Their service is good, and their price is reasonable.

I was very glad to have a "reading buddy" while enjoying my a today's brew and a piece of pecan pie. CBTL is constantly improving its food, drink and service.

I am a fan of thai milk tea. Once i heard from my friend that coffee bean offers thai milk tea latte. I went to visit them. I ordered for thai milk latte. The taste is not bad although its not exactly the same with the real thai milk tea. Its quite satisfied.

I've been a Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf fan ever since 2013 and I do not regret it because my experience has always been the same and I just really feel at home whenever I work or spend time to eat my meal or drink something just to feel better.I love Coffee Bean especially its effort to lessen their plastic consumption by giving value to those who have their tumblers or mugs with them. Also, I am really-really happy that they now have Pesto Pasta which is for me one of the best Pesto Pastas and at the same time, affordable.                 The one in my Bamboo tumbler is their Holiday Drink -- Ube Ice Blended

We have been coming here for their chamomile tea and coffee. Last week we tried their food for the first time. We had grilled chicken pesto sandwich and the Greek salad. I told one of the lady servers that the chicken is too hard and she just said, of course because it is grilled! The salad is very plain, the dressing had no taste at all and that same lady server said that it is the feta cheese that gives flavor to the dressing once you mix it to the salad! So meaning the salad makes the dressing taste good??!! I asked for another dressing and she said, there will be another charge! And when this lady server was reasoning to me she moves away mumbling. I also complained to her that there are fruit flies landing in the cups. She just said, okay... The manager was kind enough to replace our grilled chicken pesto sandwich with the tuna sandwich. This tuna sandwich is delicious. My lesson in this experience... I will never eat here because we just got so hungry again and went to another restaurant.

I find this branch massive (for a coffee shop). Beautifully massive. High ceiling, tables and chairs are spaced well from each other well (hindi siksikan). I was waiting for a dear friend when I remembered that another friend gave me Coffee Beans e-Gift. So, went inside and claimed one. Got the Dark Chocolate Coconut Ice Blended. Was excited for the new summer drink. How was it? Honestly, I was disappointed. Massively. I've been a big fan of dark chocolate but to mix it with coconut was something I didn't very much enjoy. My good friend came while I trying to open my mind to this Summer offering but no avail. Left the drink on the table and went on our way. I still like the branch, though.

Our go-to cafe in Greenbelt because they stay open late. The place is spacious and has a lively atmosphere. The staff are also very friendly and helpful.

Tried their popular Crinkles for P60 and it is indeed good! Place needs to improve their temperature though, it got quite a bit warm and uncomfortable during our stay, air conditioning was not enough to cool the place so it was a bit disappointing. Loved their Mango Ice Blended as usual.
