COFFEE PROJECT
ABOUT
As the world goes mad crazy for good eats matched with beautiful ambiance, food spots are getting
creative when it comes to designing their spaces. Locally, one of the cafés that champion both is the
coffee shop chain Coffee Project.
Coffee Project is creating a new and refreshing coffee culture in the Philippines.
Emerging as many of people’s favorite
after-home and office spot, this distinctly
beautiful cozy garden café easily lets you
unwind as you mindfully sip that rich
aromatic brew, indulge in its assortment of
delicious pastries, cakes, specialty drinks
and sumptuous dishes while appreciating
the charm and elegance of your
surroundings. The shop includes original
drinks such as cappuccinos, lattes, hot
brewed coffees, macchiatos, as well as
shots and varieties of milk selection. One
of the best specialty drinks is the Vietnamese Latte drink that almost every customer of other branches
gets.
All its 56 branches today exude that calming, youthful yet sophisticated vibe—exactly how its founder,
tycoon Manuel B. Villar Jr., had envisioned Coffee Project back in 2014. The richest man in the
Philippines had only one goal then: to improve Filipinos’ café experience, marrying that cosmopolitan
coffee culture abroad, his passion for gardens and inclination for aesthetics.
From its very first branch in Alabang, Coffee Project has created quite a buzz not only among coffee
enthusiasts, but practically everyone wanting a distinct and different café experience. It presents a full
sensory experience that makes its patrons want more.
