It’s all fun and games until you get caught up with your life again, balancing both personal and professional. Trying to figure out how you can work everything out while also taking yourself on a break. And as everything improves, real estate developers in the Philippines are also upping their game, bringing establishments such as schools, hospitals, shopping centers, and cafes closer to everyone.
And nowadays, more and more people are becoming fascinated with cafes. There’s something chill about cafes that are making everyone hooked. The smell of ground beans and the echoing laughter for some, makes everything bearable. Whether you want to distress—trying to keep your mind away from your responsibilities even just for a bit or attempting to stay productive and want a different surrounding with free Wi-Fi, having good food, good companion, and good cafes is one perfect way to do so!
Real estate developers in the Philippines are hearing all your requests for good cafes near neighborhoods that are easily accessible. One great example is Dear Joe Cafe.
What is Dear Joe all about?
Dear Joe is an establishment by Vista Land and is the first handwriting letter cafe in the country. It is a sister brand to Coffee Project and Caffeena. With an interior that captivates the attention of everyone and is indeed an Instagram-worthy spot, Dear Joe offers a new experience to everyone whilst keeping your tummy happy.
Its rustic-like interior exudes a cozy vibe that will make you feel lighter. A combination of green, gray, and white furniture, and framed pictures and murals on the walls completes the overall look of the cafe.
The nostalgic ambiance of the cafe will make you want to express what you want to express by writing a letter specifically addressed to your loved ones. Now that writing letters is slowly being forgotten, a letter-writing cafe like this is an excellent concept to ignite the good feeling writing brings. Let yourself get lost in your thoughts once in a while and ponder on them while taking a sip of your favorite hot cappuccino or other iced beverages.
What’s on the Menu?
While Dear Joe is the perfect place for unwinding and catching up, it is also the perfect place to satisfy your cravings. Quench your thirst and hunger with Dear Joe’s refreshing drinks—from fruit smoothies to coffee-based drinks to appetizing rice meals, pasta choices, and delectable desserts like cakes and gelato.
Unlike other cafes with fewer choices of food and beverages, Dear Joe’s menu has an extensive one that gives you many options.
Cup of Joe
