Ever loved to travel the city of Manila with your precious one? Your partner, not just in life, but also in every trip? In our recent post, we have featured the best places to visit in Manila whether solo or with a travel buddy. But we must apologize. We have not told you that Manila is not just a city blessed with historic sites and grandeur spots, but is also a wonderland of bistros and coffee shops.

In the urban city of Manila hides a number of cozy cafes for dating and chitchatting, which, of course, is a haven for couples and the romanticos. We have listed below the 10 cafes in Manila for couples (…and also for the hopeless romantics), each with their own gimmicks and delicious ploys.

1. The Washery

If you, lovebirds, enjoy doing laundry and sipping warm coffee, The Washery might just be the perfect café for you. The Washery is a laundromat and a café joined in one homely establishment. Indeed, couples will have fun putting the washables on the washing machine and order cups of dark brew. And there is definitely no reason to feel stress in this café. The clothes are whirling in the machines while the both of you enjoy each other’s laughter.

2. Habitual Coffee

Third wave coffee shops are becoming a trend (and has become one!). And just like any other Third-wave coffee industries, the Habitual Coffee serves original, genuinely tasting good coffee. They use AeroPress to brew coffee delicately with no awful aftertaste. And if you, inseparables, are meticulous to tasting coffee, then the Habitual Coffee is just marvelous! The aromatic smell of the brewed coffee and the comfy ambiance of the café will make you consume time without knowing.

3. Caffé Dolce

In the heart of Banawe in the Quezon City of Manila, is a hiding gem only to be sought by wild coffee drinkers. This café offers mouthwatering tasty drips, breeves, and teas made by the reverent baristas. While roses, bears, and box of chocolates create cheesy atmosphere, the Caffé Dolce create a good-smelling ambiance of hot beverages.

4. Café Shibuya

While most cafés display an enormous FREE WIFI sign to attract food crawlers, the Café Shibuya stays old-school and a bit off the track as to not having a free internet connection – and this just might not be an ideal place for internet savvies. For couples, though, this place is perfect! It is where sweethearts can enjoy a long, romantic conversation without the distraction of smartphones beeping for notifications. What can make couples sweeter in this café is the bestselling, everyone’s favorite ice-cream-topped toast that is best shared.
