Another school year came but unfortunately, the group is incomplete. Some of us are now studying at different schools and wearing other uniforms which they are now taking other courses. Despite the odds, at this moment, our circle was reunited to have a cup of coffee and entertain ourselves with conversations and food while at it.
8am — 11am. As planned, we agreed to have coffee and breakfast together in front of their university. It's not that far from our campus, so it's convenient for all of us.Days before, in our group chat, we've planned to meet if our free time aligned. Since @breepickledoodle and @blip-blop are now studying at different university, they barely see them except for me because we're staying in the same dormitory. Fortunately, we have the same vacant time in the morning which is around
The university is situated near the market where dormitories, wholesale and retail stores, public transport terminals and series of food chains and coffeeshops. It's a nest of business establishments. Yet, of all coffeeshops around, we've found one that caught our attention.
We're united at Cafe Deandro! ☕️
Some cafe here are a bit pricey and there are affordable ones but those were fully occupied. As we looked around, we saw this cafe which offers variety of drinks and meals.
Their menu prices range from these rates according to:
- Cold drinks: Php 20 - Php 69 (you can asked for hot black coffee or latte)
- Student Meals: all Php 65
- All day breakfast: Php 65 - Php 95
As usual, I want a hot black coffee and Joshua did the same with breakfast meals. The other kids ordered Nachos and Fries, with Strawberry Latte and Iced Choco. The cafe only have 4 to 5 tables inside but has a long counter with stools at the side. It's not that spacious but cozy and student friendly.
It took time for them to serve our orders since the cafe only has one cook and barista at the same time, then only one assistant who takes the orders, take the payments, serve the orders and clean the tables. One time, while waiting, the assistant was scolded because the foods were interchanged with other tables and as well as the queueing of orders. We felt bad for him since he was too busy that he mixed it up and I think it was a small mistake after all, but the cook were pressured by the volume of order, too.
For the meantime, while our foods and drinks weren't served, we took the time to get straight to our main goal and asked the couple about their new experiences at their new university. We also shared the new changes and the current happenings at the campus.

After exchanging a bunch of stories with each other, our orders were served. And I just noticed it later that my breakfast wasn't included on the list of orders that they handed to the Assistant. I was wondering why was everybody almost finished their meals but all I still had was my coffee. I was already starving! They added it late, so everybody waited for me to finish eating before leaving the cafe and report to our respective campuses.
No hard feelings there, our mishaps just only fuels the laughter. We came there happy to be reunited, and left with a smiling face. Those few hours that we spent was enough to create a core memory that will be treasured in the days to come.
Hey there!
A virtual coffee shop, a warm community!

Thanks for the dropping by, Cnnf!
The distance doesn't matter no, even if nagkahiwalay hiwalay pa. As long as there is communication, mapagpaplanuhan yarn uwu. Nicey Ayane, nakapag bond ulit kayo over yummy foods and drinks. Ehe
Ay koreek! It has been months din before kami nagkita kita ulit.
It was nice that despite the not so good service, you still looked on the bright side and didn't let the situation ruined your experience. The menu was cheap after all kaya sana well paid pa rin ang mga employees. Goods din na y'all having a good time reuniting and sharing you chikas once again.
I don't have any idea about their management but we felt bad for the employee being scolded in public. The cook could have lectured him secretly at the kitchen where nobody is looking, they have reputations to spare, too. But yes, anyway, their foods and drinks are good and affordable.
Excellent that they enjoy a good time and a cup of coffee, it's the best...
Despite the setback, everyone was happy, and that is what matters in the end 🙌🙌🙌
I am glad you enjoyed a good coffee and an excellent conversation and company 🥰🥰🥰
Anywhere with them is a happy moment. Thanks for dropping by!
they have a menu for students, does it include discounted prices?
Since it is intended for students, the price is already reduced to a student-friendly budget.
It's nice to spend time with classmates, everything is joy and relaxation despite the setbacks that may arise. Good luck to everyone on your new student journey.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us.☕
Excellent Wednesday.
