We all know how CBTL do its job, being a well known coffee shop and how awesome their drinks were. So I won't talk about their coffee, this review is based on our experience in the place.A chill place only few people know. There's a restaurant beside it so after having a meal, CBTL would be perfect. The coziest CBTL in the Philippines I guess? Coziest coffee shops are found in Tagaytay huh? The place is not hidden and it's found before entering Crosswinds. A large windmill will welcome you. It's like the ones you see in Netherlands. I just can't understand why people aren't here? We were the only customer during the time we went here. The place is full of pine trees and you could really feel you're in a different country. Weather was so perfect. I guess the only thing lacking is the view of taal cause it is located on the other side.They don't have Wi-Fi connection, you'll have time to chat with friends and stare at the trees while feeling the cold breeze. Lastly, parking is really a struggle. Your car will be in super slanting position since the road to Crosswinds is full matarik na pababa.

After Balay Dako, the gang wanted to relieve our tummies from all the food we ate and one of us suggested hot teas! I suggested CBTL at Crosswinds so I can finally see the awesome facade of this branch.I super love it! As seen on the photo, it has a windmill on top. Makes me think I'm somewhere in Switzerland. I also find the branch calming since there were few people in the area during our stay.One of my friends mentioned the teas are better in Starbucks but it didn't matter. The hot tea was able to sooth my tummy and that's all I care about. 💆🏻
