Steam Yard Coffee and Community. Good Food, Great Coffee and an Online Shoppers Haven

Our Muntinlupa neighborhood keeps getting interesting and yes, the changes are definitely for the better. Just a few minutes walk from our place is Steam Yard Coffee and Community, which opened last year. It is a local specialty coffee concept shop providing sanctuary for online shoppers and coffee enthusiasts, as it says in their Official Facebook Page

If you are looking for a decent cafe that offers great coffee and yummy cakes and pastries, you will definitely enjoy the very cozy ambiance of Steam Yard. They also offer quite a selection of savory meals, pasta dishes, and sandwiches in case you want more than just good brew or a refreshing drink. Our family's favorites are the Tuyo Pasta with sundried tomatoes, Pasta Negra, Ensaymada with Kesong Puti and their Barako Muffin.

The restaurant are open daily from 8am to 10pm. This hip neighborhood cafe is excellent for meetings, a quick meal, or just to enjoy a mean cup of espresso. It also houses trendy items from online sellers which makes it amazing for one-stop shop and chill place. We have already bought a couple of shirts, makeup item/tools and gift items from their collection of sellers. They have the friendliest staff from Head Barista Angelo to the Manong Security Guard who will open the door and greet you welcome.

Steam Yard also hold special activities like vinyl listening sessions, pop-up events, etc. You can just follow them SteamyardPH on IG and Steam Yard Coffee on Facebook or contact at them (02)800-6324. Address is at 49 National Road, Muntinlupa City. They are between Shakey's Pizza Parlor and Domino's Pizza.

All Time Fave. Cafe Breton Dessert Crepes.

Rainy days and nostalgic yummy crepes.

Earlier in the day, I was doing some midweek errands and suddenly the June rain trapped me along Westgate in Alabang. Good thing I was near Cafe Breton and well it was almost merienda time. Does that sound like an excuse to enjoy some yummy crepes and brewed coffee? 

I have always wanted to try their other dessert crepes but I always end up with La Pinay (it is the usual sweet mangoes, vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup) but since I was feeling a tad bit adventurous (not really) I ordered 'Fantastic Pinay' haha. It is filled with refreshing mangoes, chocohazelnut spread, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. Woohoo! Now who is dieting and counting calories? It was definitely not me at this time. lol



For Nutella lovers, super delish Fantastic Pinay (P255) and Cafe Americano (P100).

Cafe Breton surely brings back memories of the old Greenbelt Makati after the 9 to 5 grind way back in the 1990s. Just having good food while catching up with friends and waiting for the traffic to die down. Now, we have it conveniently in the Southern Metro. So anytime you are craving a decent dessert crepe or may it be a filling savory version (with mushrooms, mozzarella, or spinach), perhaps a full on 90s throwback Tuna Melt you can drop by their forever cozy branch at Westgate Alabang in Muntinlupa City.

Even Cafe Breton's signature white and blue dishes are so comforting as their well-loved menu. More reasons to come back and enjoy your good old fave cafe. Young and old crepe lovers may check out their full menu at Cafe Breton via zomato.com They also serve breakfast, wine and beer, and cocktails.
