"Absolutely one of the best cafés in El Nido! The eggs benedict was perfect and the coffee was top notch. The vibe is so cozy and the staff is incredibly friendly. Will definitely come back every time I'm in Palawan!"
"Digital nomad dream! Fast WiFi, tons of plugs, and the food is actually amazing. I spent three full work days here and ordered something different every time. The smoothie bowls and blue rice bowl are must-tries!"
"We discovered Blend & Grind on our second day in El Nido and ended up eating here every morning after that! The breakfast options are incredible, especially the shakshuka. Great value for money and such a warm atmosphere."
"The BEST burger I've had in the Philippines, no exaggeration. Paired it with an iced coffee and I was in heaven. The place is super Instagrammable too. Service was fast even when it was busy. Highly recommend!"
"Such a gem! Vegan options were plentiful and genuinely delicious. The chia parfait with tropical fruits was gorgeous and tasted even better than it looked. Staff went above and beyond to accommodate our dietary needs."
"This place has the perfect balance of good food, good coffee, and good vibes. It gets busy during peak hours but the wait is always worth it. The tapsilog hits different with their signature garlic rice. A local institution!"
