Being one of the closest malls to me, I'm always interested when new things open in Megamall. I saw Coffee Bean and the Tea Leaf Kitchen opened through a quick video and I instantly fell in love with this new CBTL Branch! It's called the Kitchen by CBTL.
Located on the ground floor of Megamall B, along the row of J.Co and Mang Inasal, this is a refreshing addition to the mall! A great place to read a book and pass time (which is what I did!), it's also a cozy spot to catch up with friends! There are two nook spots that give off a more intimate vibe. There are also long tables to cater to larger groups.
The Kitchen by CBTL is so well designed, I love how it just feels vibrant and open thanks to the natural light coming in! A lovely spot to recharge after a day of shopping. Spot.PH has a more thorough take on their food selection.
As for the menu, it's your typical cafe food with CBTL's signature drinks. I would say that the food, albeit common cafe selections, feel a bit more elevated than other cafes. Think Wildflour but more affordable and less intimidating.
