This was my first time in Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf coffee shop. So I visited this branch in UP Ayala Technohub last April 28 and it was a good experience! The place, ambiance and ateng barista are all perfecttt huhu. Ate Barista was so kind and accommodating to me! I also told her to write a short message on my cup lid because I was feeling anxious and overwhelmed that day so thank you so much pooo.

However, the size of their large coffee (their biggest size) was actually small compared to venti of SB and Large of Tims. It looked like a medium-sized drink for 215 pesos huhu.

One day they run out of chocolate syrup the next day they run out of something else so you can never get what you exactly want; their pastry selection is too small they don't have a lot of choices compared to the other...
