As if it was not enough that I was kidnapped by Rodel Flordeliz (follow the link to read the story), our friend Edward (who lives in Antipolo) “abducted” us and took us farther. I was hesitant to go but since we were already in Antipolo, we agreed to visit The Coffee Project, in Vista Mall. 

I was glad we braved the shuttle and tricycle ride to get to Vista Mall and experienced the Coffee Project. I was mesmerized when I got inside. 

Think: flowers, brick walls, London-inspired interior, lamps and coffee. I was so giddy. The Coffee Project is so romantic. For a second I wish someone would propose. But of course, that didn’t happen. There were a few people in the cafe and I envy each of them for having this beautiful cafe accessible from their home. I later found out that the Coffee Project is owned by Manny Villar (a Filipino billionaire businessman who is now starting a coffee shop business). 

I snapped some photos using my phone but I mostly just enjoy the place. Observing the people who are visiting – mostly families, friends and students. 

Thank you Eddiecakes for bringing us here!

The Coffee Project in Antipolo menu offers coffee (hot and cold), ice blended drinks, sandwiches, salad, pasta, all-day breakfast, and cakes & pastries. As we were already full, we just ordered coffee. I had Iced Caramel Latte (Php 135 regular, Php 150 large) Coffee taste is okay. My Caramel Latte tasted more like an Iced Latte. I was too mesmerized by the place to even bother. I probably ordered the wrong drink. Planning to order and check out the other offerings next time. 

How to Get to Coffee Project Antipolo from Manila?

From Cubao, take the Antipolo-Cubao jeep via Marcos Highway and get off S&R (about an hour ride without traffic). Php 34.00

From S&R, take a tricycle to Vista Mall (around 5-minute ride).  We paid Php 30 for 3 pax :D
