The Coffee Library - San Juan — Restaurant in La Union

It's been two months since they opened and people are flocking this place. Why? They prepare coffee that totally rocks! Turkish, Vietnamese and Italian coffee are served here with appropriate price ranging from 70 up. Must try the Frappes and Chocolate Affogato. It has that coffee taste that you are looking for. They have lots of food choices. And finally the popular Pho of the Vietnamese cuisine is now in ElYu. It's a must have specially during rainy days. Buffalo wings too! Strawberry mango salad is delicious as well. The prices are affordable. I do not recommend the Porterhouse Steak though coz it's expensive and a bit dry (not juicy) also I think the cook forgot to put seasoning. The gravy doesn't have taste good either. The clubhouse I ordered has waayyy toooo many Mayo. The ambiance upstairs is cozy and it has comfortable sofas but it can be very hot during the day. They should improve the airconditioning of this place though electric fans are provided, since La Union has a hot weather, the aircon should be really good specially if you are going to unwind and have some delicious coffee. The balcony/veranda area is a relaxing touch and perfect during dinner. Toilet is available outside and it's made only of wood and steel but it's somehow clean because it doesn't smell at all. They have garden type seats in the first floor...

The Coffee Library in San Juan La Union is a real gem! We were looking for a cool spot with AC (a lifesaver in Elyu heat), and this place hit the nail on the head. It's right on the main road, close to the beach and other stores, making it easy to grab a bite before hitting the waves.

The coffee was decent, we tried their Vietnamese and classic iced versions. But the real surprise was the food! Their pork kare-kare was the best we had in all of Elyu, even better than Miryinda! The porkchop was juicy and flavorful, and the prices were super reasonable compared to other places.

We loved the fast internet too. I worked for a good four hours there with no hiccups, making it a great option for digital nomads. The servers were friendly and happy to answer our questions about the menu, adding to the good vibes.

Overall, The Coffee Library easily made it into our top 3 restaurants in Elyu. It's a must-try spot for anyone looking for a cool café with delicious food, fast Wi-Fi, and friendly service. Just remember, you might be surprised by how good the eats are, they...

My sister and I were here from around 11am to around 2pm and we did not feel as if we have to leave abruptly. The staff, especially the waiter who served us were all verh friendly and approchable. No wonder it has been one of the spots in SJLU who was able to maintain their business inspite of the pandemic. WIFI access was also available throughout our stay. It was as if it was a very productive working space too. The food was great as always, we ordered the crispy pork kare kare again 😅. The plate contains a good amount of steamed rice, steamed veggies composed of sliced eggplants, stringbeans and pechay, a slab of sliced crispy pork liempo and a serving of sauted shrimp paste. They also serve service water with ice upon request. Payment is made before leaving the place at the counter on the ground floor. Enough seating is available for all customers who came and went during our stay. The staff also turned on the fan for us, it was not as warm but the open windows and fan allowed cool natural breeze to graze the location. Aesthetics were IG...
