DCA Signature - Daet — Restaurant in Daet

From the looks of it, this café is inspired by Manila-style hangouts—offering a cozy, stylish haven for coffee, cakes, light meals, and more. I'm really glad to see a place like this in the province; it’s a welcome addition for those looking for a premium, relaxing spot to eat and unwind.

The place is huge as it has a 2nd floor and it is air conditioned. There is a common restroom on the ground floor.

The coffee is good and the carrot cake is delicious. The fries is okay.
