Bad Cafe

I like their food and drinks. Especially their coffee. If you want to hang out with your friend in a relaxed and cozy ambiance.

The staff is friendly and the chef is very creative in the food presentation and the way how it cooked. You should give it a try since this is my second time dining there.

Always a great time whenever I eat and chill here. First time trying their chicken and waffles and can I just say, the chicken is flavorful, crunchy, and BIG!

The waffles didn't stand out that much but it was denser than most, which I love.

First time trying their foamy hazelnut cold brew as well and it did not disappoint. Though, the hazelnut sauce in the bottom is hard to mix in with the drink itself, it still hits the mark!

Good cafe for brunch or just coffee! There's also more seating than I expected, since it looks smaller from the outside. Clean interiors too! Food was served quickly. I got an iced vanilla latte and a breakfast sandwich, which had a side salad for under 500, which isn't too bad! Coffee was good and the sandwich was filling enough to last until merienda. Definitely recommend if you're in the area!

Mar 2023: First time to try this small cafe near our pad. The ambience is relaxed and inviting. It's well lit and has outlets for every table so you can stay longer. I hope they put bag hangers under the tables. They offer food items for breakfast and brunch. They also have desserts and homemade ice cream. Different coffee selections and cocktails is also being offered together with pica-pica items.

We ordered Lox Bagel and Honey Garlic Chicken with Garlic Rice. The bagel is delicious but I want more slices of smoked salmon to amp up the flavor. The honey garlic chicken is adequate.

We also ordered hot Americano (hoping it was very strong) and the Iced Spanish Latte (which I thought it was milder in flavor). But, I was wrong...the spanish latte was stronger than the americano. So, I requested for fresh milk and brown sugar on the side.

Overall, we are very happy with our food and coffee. We will surely come back to try their other food offerings and cocktails.

Nov 2023: We're back! Ordered Honey Garlic Chicken, Breakfast Sandwich, Latte and Spanish Latte for brunch. Everything was delicious! I loved the coffee art and they also carry merchandise from small businesses like @captainhookedph. We also fed Zaldy aka Fifa, their adopted cat waiting outside their doorstep 😊

Ironically, there’s nothing bad about their cafe. Their coffee is the prime example of how good this place is. Their pastries may not be god-tier, but they’re toothsome still.

I also liked how posh and minimalist-looking the cafe is. They have smiling attendants, speedy WiFi, and a youthful atmosphere.

You can tell that the interior’s well thought out if the design of the toilet is still cohenrent with the overall decor of the place.

Nice place with good ambience and good coffee (try the Horchata!).
Food was well-prepared, but portions were small for the price.
We ordered the Salmon Cream Cheese Bagel (good, but the bread was a bit tough) and the Sashouka (flavors were on point but bitin cause it came with only 2 small pcs of bread)
Would come back if I need a quiet place to work or just tambay.
(Expect a bit of waiting time because there was only one server at the time we went)

I always had my Spanish Latte with super cute design partnered with my favorite Waffle w/blue berry toppings. The ambiance is good for chilling by yourself or with a small group of friends. I like the concept of this place and the location. Its a place where you can chill after a long day at work, right in the middle of Makati. Fantastic coffee, friendly staff and I will always love to stay on this place. ❤❤❤

Bad Cafe is the perfect cafe to hang-out/catch-up with a friend, do work, and watch short performances. We visited during Bad Words performed prose night and the ambiance of the place just matches with the event.

Ordered Blueberry waffles, cold brew coffee with latte, and mocha -- all good-tasting! The coffee just smelled so good as the staff prepares it.

Staff are very helpful and courteous, too. They did their best in helping in the event plus accommodating the customers so kudos to the staff! Ambiance is nice, but the place is a bit small if larger crowds decide to attend some events in the future.

Overall, it's a must to visit this cafe when you're around Makati area.

Fried chicken and mac & cheese the best ❤ chocolate cookies is good too. Spanish latte is delicious. Ginger lemonade (50% sugar) is relaxing. Ambiance is great maraming nagwowork, nagbabasa and with fam/friends. Nice staffs. Will return here. 😊

Bad cafe already had me hooked by its cozy, well-designed interiors and good cafe music... but it's the food that truly pulled me towards the end of the line. After a wonderful dine-in-to-work experience, I may be committed to visiting them more often.

I've always been a fan of pleasantly strong, sharp flavors in my dessert and their Kalamansi pie has me blissfully in awe of its playful, tarty taste.

I ordered it with their velvet-smooth, sweet and milky french vanilla.

What a way to start the day. <3

One of the most budget-friendly coffee shops in Legazpi Village. I love it! It’s great for those working remotely as they have plenty of electric outlets and a decent WiFi connection.

Love their calamansi pie – but it’s too much for just one person. Definitely bring someone with whom you can share this delightful dessert. :)

I loved it here!! Just a pricier cafe for sure.

I give this place a 5 stars since pricing I assume covers the high cost of rent in Makati. Also, to maximize the price paid, make sure to stay and chill inside the place. So price would be around x 1.085 of the menu price

Place is very cozy and a bit hidden. They have a few-several seats available. Not for the large crowds.

For the drinks, they have literal "large" drinks. I had the Ube Latte which was very good. Not too sweet tbh. We also had a Calamansi Pie which complemented the drinks that we had. As for my date, she had the Spanish Latte. She enjoyed it. Nothing more could I ask for :)

Overall:
Price - 4.2/5 (around 230php /drink or pastry)
Place/ambience - 4.8/5
Experience - 5/5

We were supposed to go to a different cafe but there were no seats available so I used google and chance upon this cafe. I love their minimalist design, the ambiance was nice. The staff was really friendly and helpful.

All the beverages we got tasted great. The latte art was really cute too, specially the cat one. 🐱

As a coffee lover and food enthusiast from Iloilo, this place exceeded my expectations. Great, clean and cozy ambiance. The Cold Brew Latte (with added sugar as personal preference) was truly mind-blowing! Awesome food (I only ordered Fried Chicken Sandwich 😅✌🏻) and superb service! Already recommended the place to my friends so they can dine here when they visit Metro Manila. 😊🤍

Beyond coffee, Bad Café boasts a menu of delectable dishes to satisfy your cravings. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty brunch, a satisfying sandwich, or a decadent dessert, their culinary offerings are sure to please. The ingredients are thoughtfully sourced, resulting in dishes that are both flavorful and visually appealing.

It's almost difficult to see the cafe as it is in between stores and the facade looks very small. But once you go in, it is spacious and for those who wfh, there are outlets around.

Now for the food. The food/drink is great..i ordered their Ube Cream Cheese Latte and their pork tender bites - this can be shared by two. Its both crispy (skin) and tender (meat part). No need for the rice! Next time, I'll try the pastries or pasta for sure.

Service is also great, too. They support the disabled staffing so that's a plus and kudos for that!

I'll be back for sure!

Recommended! Got their Spanish Latte (210 for a big glass) and I love how it’s so creamy and not too sweet. Can also say they use good coffee beans which is a plus. Got to stay at the window seat which is perfect for people watching 👌 would definitely come back here to try other drinks and pastries! The cookies look so good but unfortunately I was too full so I wasn’t able to try.

The coffee was very good! Breakfast too. I definitely recommend this place.

I recently visited "Bad Cafe," and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. The ambience was truly delightful, with warm lighting that created a cozy atmosphere. The spacious environment allowed for comfortable seating and a relaxed vibe. It's also an excellent spot for work or study, providing a conducive area to focus. Overall, a great place to unwind, be productive, and enjoy some good coffee!

Had the Deep Fried Enoki Chips, Honey Garlic Chicken, Salmon Teriyaki, Hibiscus tea.

Enoki chips, loved it. Crispy, yummy, great flavors from the sauce. If they ever plan on updating it, I will probably add something acidic(pickles on the side) to balance the oil and the mayo sauce. Honey Garlic Chicken is also great, the portion is just right. As for the Salmon, I like the consistency of the sauce. However, next to the chicken, it looked like the salmon was small. We opted for adlai and it tasted just like plain rice. For both these dishes, I would have wanted more of the vegetable sides. The cold Hibiscus tea was refreshing. I requested for syrup because it just needed that. There were 3 of us and we were full by the end of the meal.

They offer free wifi so you can get some work done here. One thing to note though is that it can get noisy. We were talking the entire time and I felt like the whole cafe can hear us. The sound just bounces off the wall. Just bring your earbuds if you need to focus.

I had a folding bike with me and they allowed me to bring it inside. They are really accommodating.
