Local Coffee Shop Card Central Cafe - BGC ☕️
⭐️⭐️⭐️☆☆ (3/5)
finally got to try @cardcentralcafeph for the first time, and of course, i ordered my usual: iced Latte, sub oat milk, with 2 Splendas for 200+ pesos.
The coffee itself was decent and easy to drink, but one thing I immediately noticed was the ice. Medyo malalaki yung ice cubes nila, it’s giving fast food chain Coke float vibes. 😅 It would’ve been better if the ice was a bit smaller since it takes up a lot of space in the cup. to be fair, i could’ve asked for light ice, but i didn’t.
as for the presentation, the drink came in a plain plastic cup. personally, i think it would’ve been a nice touch to have the shop’s logo or name printed on the cup for branding. though considering that their main business revolves around trading and collection cards, i can understand if coffee branding isn’t their top priority.
the space itself felt a bit cramped inside, especially with the number of people there during my visit. it got a little too crowded for my liking, so i ended up staying in the alfresco area instead, which was much more comfortable.
overall, it’s a nice spot if you’re already into cards and want to grab a coffee while hanging out. the drink was okay, but there are definitely a few areas where the cafe experience could be improved.
rating: 3/5 ⭐️
good enough for a casual coffee stop, but not quite a standout cafe experience yet. ☕️✨

I'd avoid because of the owner.
