Went here for a quiet afternoon/ evening and to focus more on reading. The place is swarmed with students or youngster who respect the needs of reviewing students.In our short stay, we got a couple of hot chai lattee, hot caramel macchiato, 2 mocha ice blends ( coz they stayed outside to smoke) and a tuna pandesal for me.VERDICT: i loooove the chai latte here. Not watered down or sweet. Also, they have a devise to notify you of your orders so it wont matter if they got your name wrong.Down side: the tuna pandesal is tough. Like really tough for a bread. Too, they didn't have their own restroom. ✌️

A good place to get coffee and hang out. Starbucks outside has a smaller seating capacity and is a bit of a pain to get to when it's raining. We saw a UCC also but it was closed early. the line at the lone cashier counter was long and I think they need to add more cashier counters because they have a big seating capacity (inside and outside). The place was almost full despite it not being a weekend (tuesday). They also took a while to prepare our food and beverages. We didn't mind but for someone who might just be passing by for takeout, they would surely be a bit irritated (at the least). I think they were undermanned tonight, maybe they didn't expect so many customers on a tuesday night.

CBTL is my only go to coffee shop ever since. Top of my beverage list are always iced Chai Tea Latte or their uber yummy pink guava juice! But today, I decided to try their iced blended mocha...and it was definitely worthy being labeled under their best-selling concoctions. For those who watch their weight, are insomniacs and glucose intolerant, you may opt for soy, non-fat milk and decaf.They also serve very good pasta, sandwiches and breakfast meals. My personal favorite is their sardines panini and eggs Benedict breakfast.If you've the CBTL Swirl Card, expect rebates and free Wi-Fi access. Definitely my kind of cafe!
