Hello, hivers! How are we all doing? It's the first week of April, and summer is just getting started in the Philippines, but the entire week has been rainy due to low pressure area. It's best to cuddle and sip hot coffee or chocolate in this kind of weather but also prone to coughs and fever. Let's just not forget to take our vitamins daily for our protection guys.
For today's cafe experience, I just recently found a lovely discovery that wasn't part of the original plan, but it turned out to be the most peaceful cafe shop I've ever been to so far.
My previous post, in which I went Samgyeopsal with Christine, was also the time when we both discovered this cafe. I mean, this place may not be new to everyone, but I didn't know about it despite the fact that I pass by down Escario Street on a regular basis. The Cafe shop is located at 731 N Escario St, Cebu City (within AXA bldg.)
We were supposed to go to a different cafe that I had previously visited and would like to return to chill and relax for a while, but when we arrived, the shop had been changed to a different store. It's no longer a cafe. I was a little disappointed because the place was very cute on my first visit, but we didn't give up. I used the Google Map to find the nearest cafe in the area, and this Cafe Talk Library piqued my interest.
With no more doubts and hesitation, we went right away and ride a jeep. Surprisingly we were able to find it so easy because like what I said I always pass by this street but I never thought that it will look like this inside.
The shop is as quiet as a library. They have small rooms for customers who want to do their studies, paperwork, and meetings quietly and privately. There are rooms on the second floor as well.
The ambiance is pleasant and reminiscent of a library. I can say that if I want a quiet or peaceful place to study, I will come here. Truly a perfect study space for students.
They have books arranged on each side of the small rooms. Their interior design is stylish, just like this bulb. I'm sure this is common in any cafe with a modern vibe or design.
Their menu is adequate but a little pricey; however, they offer a wide variety of foods. They even have a breakfast menu and some Korean foods if you want to eat them in a Korean-themed setting.
Customers who want to sit at a table while working can do so near the entrance. They also have these murals on their walls. If you've noticed, each room has a different mural painting.
The overall experience was fantastic. This discovery was a lot of fun for us. I can come here on my day off to write blogs and other things. If I want to spend some time alone or simply catch up with a friend, like Christine and I do, but keep in mind that the majority of their customers are students so we have to mind our voices too. We took our time exploring every corner of the cafe, and we didn't forget to check out their powder room.
If you happen to pass by Escario St., you may wanna drop by and try out this cafe. It will give you peace and space of your need.
I'm not much of a cafe person, but I'm trying to branch out and try something new. Hive has opened my eyes to go wander and explore more about what is available outside of my comfort zone, and as a result, I found the happiness through it.
I hope you enjoy Cafe Talk Library. Til my next cafe-venture!
