Bicester Cafe — Restaurant in Cebu City

I have been here many times already. sometimes just to dine and most of the times to work.

What I love about this place is their GREAT Customer Service So far I know 3 of their attendants RR, Jay-R and Josh. hopefully I got their names correctly.

Each attendants has their own quality. RR he's pleasing, friendly, easy to get along with. Jay-R he's quiet and straightforward, like the kind of you get what you ask. Josh oh this guy is nice, super attentive and gives off eager to work vibes.

Among their meals so far I have tried tapas and fish-steak meals, pasta, chicken waffle and pancake,

I love their rice meals the most, they taste so great~!! more on the sweetness scale, but their pasta meals and pancake is subjectively average for me.

Place is rarely crowded/full I like their music playlist WiFi is free and fast Parking is free and has plenty of space

Room for improvements are Their comfort room door lock, would be nice if they add a sliding bolt lock, I don't trust door knobs locks hehe. Option to pay through different payments especially card payment cause I usually don't bring much cash with me. They're only open until 7PM although this does not...

It was OK. Good place to hang out, great vibes, quiet atmosphere to work, free board games, but the food could be improved.

We went there for breakfast at around 10am because we saw Eggs Benny on the menu. The staff told us the eggs Benny was "sold out" (it seemed to be a slow day, so I don't know if they even bothered stocking it) so we got the chicken & waffles and the plain breakfast instead.

The waffles had great flavour, but pretty please more of the sauce (or thin the sauce out with cream/milk) to combat the dryness would make the waffle that much more 👌 If you order the waffles, definitely go with a milky drink for now.

The matcha latte wasn't very well blended, so I had to stir it for 5 minutes before drinking to blend the matcha chunks in.

But the regular breakfast & cucumber lemonade my husband got were yummy and perfectly balanced.

Great environment to hang out in (they have free board games) slash work, but I don't know if I'd go back for the food for now.

But it IS a cafe, and we didn't try the coffee, so maybe that's on us 🤣 their coffee setup seemed...

I visited Bicester Cafe in Cebu back in 2023, and it was a solid neighbourhood cafe and great for working. Always appreciate places that have big windows to let natural light in, just feels better when you need to get some work done or want to browse alone for a while.

You don't see it often but they offer unlimited brewed coffee for ₱120, if I didn't plan on visiting 5+ cafes that day I'd probably take them up on their offer and lounge around for a while, haha. One thing I still have to get used to for a mainly Vietnam-based cafe hopper is that our SEA neighbours all serve food in their cafes. Since I do food trips alongside cafe hopping I'm always too full to try cafe dishes, maybe someday I'll try.

One thing that really bugged me: they served their drinks in disposable cups, even for dine-in. didn't really pay attention whether it was just me or...
