I’ve only been ordering the same drink and food for a year now if you will have to wait in the Starbucks drive-thru for 30 minutes, why not just order here?

Was around the Tiongson Arcade after a long ride from Davao and was looking for a quick sip of coffee. Glad to have spotted this place near the area. Place was cute but cozy, could probably sit not more than 15 persons both indoor and outdoor. Every angle of this place is gram worthy, I was totally digging the interiors. Ayos kaayo ba! For the coffee, I planned to go for my usual Americano but was left curious of their NBH signature coffee so went for it instead. It had a lot of ingredients to it but what I remember from the barista was it had oatmeal milk on it or something. Overall coffee was good for what I needed, just wished to had the time to stay longer. Sa sunod na lang, puhon.

I'm really fond of Neighborhood Coffee - it's such a cozy spot! Their coffee is top-notch, and I love how they pair it with delicious pastries. What really stands out is their unique coffee bean selection, which is a refreshing change from the usual offerings in Gensan. The staff is super friendly and approachable, making you feel right at home. Plus, the signage makes it easy to find, so you won't have any trouble tracking it down. Overall, it's a great spot to grab a cup of coffee and unwind.

Cool place! And love the vibe. We just ordered basic drinks because a lot of their specialty coffee & matcha weren’t available. Can’t wait to try other offerings

It has this little-coffee-shop-around-the-corner vibes. I used to dig their croissants, but they were not available when I last went there. They close quite a bit early, too.
