Crema's Take
“Ayala Coffee in Union is a Filipino-inspired specialty café where the coffee and matcha are genuinely excellent, but what really draws people back is the warm, chill vibe and the kitchen's creative streak—think sisig flatbreads and tocino sandwiches alongside perfectly crafted espresso drinks. The owners Matt and Trixie have clearly built something special, with thoughtful details like the decorated walls celebrating Filipino culture and consistently fresh pastries that keep regulars coming in multiple times a week. It's the kind of place where you can sink in for hours with friends, grab a quick breakfast, or just enjoy a really good cup alongside people who clearly care about getting it right.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Coming from the old location, everything is still top quality! The pandan Katie is just as full of flavor when it was in a smaller setting. I’m glad Matt and Trixie stayed true to there vision. The addition of food and pastries is welcome addition. The pastry chefs are top…
Came on an early monday and the place was already busy. We found a spot for two but by 10:30am almost all the seats were taken. We got their spamganisa and tocino sandwich, pastries and of course their lattes. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the tocino more than the spam as the latter…
