The Curator, Coffee & Cocktails

I have been coming here for years now and I still experience the same lovely service and exceptional coffee . You really can't go anywhere else if you are a bonafide coffee lover.

One can immediately sense their passion for serving quality coffee once you step inside the cafe . As a first time guest, I was even offered a complimentary cup. One of the few best in Manila.

We made Walter's Favorite here! ???? go ahead, give it a try. I love the coziness and the ambiance of this place. Perfect place for a quiet hideout after a long day at work.

Tricky to find, but once inside it's like a secret hideout with friendly faces and great music . The coffee is great, but the cocktails are phenomenal. The whisky and gin menu is pretty impressive too.

Curator is like Hogwarts' 'Room of Requirements' where you'll only find it & get in if you're looking for a place to try out concoctions pretty new to your tastebuds.

Third-wave coffee by day and kick-ass cocktails by night. An addition puts bright café at the front, but the back remains intimate and cosy – a clever trick with the spartan concrete and wood design.

Try the left coast for a refreshing twist on your usual mojito and if you're up for something more daring, go for "the last word". beyond awesome service and great ambiance! ????????

I love how the staff looks after me so nicely here! Their Lamill with milk/cream & beef tapa on brioche always make my day! Coffee 's served until 7pm. Try their tri-apple cold pressed juice , too!

Fantastic service and excellent whisk(e)y selection, especially for Manilla. They have the absolutely divine and extraordinarily rare bourbon "George T. Stagg" in stock. Beware: it's 73% alcohol .

Third-wave coffee by day and kick-ass cocktails by night is a winning combination, judging by the popularity of this cool bar . Try the signatures #StillHurting, Under Pressure and Kiban Sour.

Coffee place by day, cocktail bar by night. 16th on the list of Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2016. Have their #StillHurting (on the menu). Also ask for a bespoke Smoky Boulevardier.

A nice place for coffee . Just say how you want your coffee to taste and they will recommend one for you. Ethiopia is good - with a kick of berries and maple ? Staffs are very accommodating.

Try the summer related espresso with different type of sugar in test tubes to choose from! Note that coffee is up to 5:30pm a day only and cocktails are served by 6pm :)

Well , if this is your first time to visit then it is better to sit at the bar . The barista has a deft in coffee making. And the barista will provide recommendation to drink depends on your preference.

Best seat is by the bar ! Enjoy your drink while chatting with the bartenders . Also, if you're not quite sure what to get, they're always willing to whip up something off menu . :-)

Great place to chill . It's a very intimate space , low key from outside, you'd think twice, is this really the place? You walk into a door and you see this hidden lair.

Favourite low key spot in Makati. Serving up good coffee and even better cocktails . Brunch menu is also appetising .

It's a good place to try if you want some quiet while having a cup of coffee .

Very hidden place ! But still worth searching for hehe. Ask the barista for sweetener! :)

Authentic and intimate ambient. Great coffee and value.

They make a beautifully balanced old fashioned here. Will definitely be coming back.

One word: awesome. The guy named Jericson (sp?) custom-made me a cocktail I hadn't been able to find anywhere else in the country !

Great coffee (the best latte ) and service. Quiet , too, at least when we dropped by.

Great coffee experience! ????????☕️ Thanks to Ivan the barista for entertaining us ????

Talk to the staff - they've got some great tips for coffee , food and everything else around Manila!

They are located inside Cyrano . Great third wave coffee place within the metro!

ACTUAL location is on Palanca street, by the BDO Bank . It's on the backside of the building which is on Castro street.

Cocktails , ask the bar tender for recommendations

Fantastic drinks and well-designed space. Bring a sweater if you plan to sit at the bar .

Awesome cocktails , unpretentious crowd, and great ambience.

Great ambience, coffee . And get the We Love Legazpi Breakfast !

Nice ambience and accommodating staff ! They have a very limited introductory menu but can customize cocktails .

Haven't tasted their specialty coffee but The Curator himself, Jericson Co, can craft cocktails to fit your current mood.

Their apple pie French toast tastes great and the portion is large!!

Say hi to Jeric and Yoma at the bar ; they'll take good care of you.

Recommend the flat white !! Real chill/speakeasy vibe! ????

Try their espresso ! I like how they blend their coffee .

Hard to find. Need to go in thru the Cyrano wine shop + deli to get to it!

Awesome place. An escape from the busy Makati streets.

Very cozy but not for people who want to have the sun/light. Hopefully they can add more food options.

Great ambiance, friendly service . Pricey , though.

Speakeasy . Cocktails and friendly staff

*sigh* you can't have your coffee and drink it too...

Grab a cup o' joe while you shop designer brands! ☕????????????
