Cioccolata Churros Cafe — Restaurant in Manila

Some friends and I ordered sandwiches and salads here. You can also get a variety of specialty coffees, pizza, cupcakes/muffins and churros. For our order, we were pleased with the fresh bread in particular, but the rest of the food was okay to pretty good as well.

The staff is friendly, well trained, and the wait time was only ten minutes. A sandwich and salad cost only $4 or 200 pesos, which is a good value for the area.

The music was a perky elevator jazz style. There was a good amount of seating for such a small venue, but it was fairly packed at lunch time when we were there.

Can't say there were too many tasty options for vegetarians, but they did have a cheese sandwich and just ask them to hold the bacon...

Cioccolata Café in Intramuros is such an underrated gem. We tried both hot and cold coffees, and they were all excellent. The churros were a standout—hot, crispy, and perfect with the rich chocolate dip (only ₱120 for 6 pcs!).

We also had their open sandwiches, generously topped with spinach and cream—a filling and tasty choice. The rice box with samgyupsal was another highlight, packed with plenty of pork and very satisfying. The katsudon was great too—comforting, flavorful, and cooked just right. Portions are big, making everything such good value for money.

A cozy café with great food, generous servings, and consistently good coffee—definitely worth a visit when...

Cozy cafe in historic Intramuros, it is at the ground level of Bayleaf Hotel. My cousin, my brother and i agreed to meet here 2 days back and it was a good choice. Inside, you have a nice view of the fabled walls built during the Spanish time. I'll give 2 thumbs up to their churros with 2 kinds of dips- chocolate and caramel. I liked also their cheese rolls, so buttery. For drinks, i chose one from their selection of signature drinks pictured on the wall. For me it was Ube Royale, a cold, purple concoction with the unmistakable taste of purple yam and a generous dollop of whipped cream on top. It was heavenly. I want to give myself a medal for instinctively knowing...
