Through Habit Store & Cafe

A Must-Visit Cafe for Quality Brews! My visit to Through Habit was wonderful. The pour-over I ordered was exceptional. Truly great coffee. I decided to try it with their cinnamon sugar, and it made for a surprisingly delicious pairing. The Greenwich sourdough was high quality and super satisfying. Price point is a little high, but for this level of quality, it’s worth it.

The plant-based shawarma rice (₱295) that had tofu was pretty good but could use some improvement. What I liked most was the chilled taho (₱95). The 10% service charge is a bit high though the staff is attentive. Fast wifi and power outlets are available. The cafe is beautiful and the AC works well.

This place is one of the greenest and most calming cafés I’ve ever been to. It truly deserves to be called a vegan-friendly café, with its classy and elegant atmosphere. Here's a breakdown of my experience: Coffee: 10/10 – Absolutely, professionally made! They use plant based ingredients to their drinks. Atmosphere/Ambience: 100/10 – A greeny space filled with plants and sustainable design. Space: 10/10 – Small but feels spacious; ideal for groups. WiFi: 10/10 – No data limits, stable connection. Sockets: 10/10 – Available (mostly along the wall). Study-Friendly: 10/10 – comfortable seats. Music: 10/10 – Great playlist with Jazz (u can request a song) Visuals: 100/10 – Aesthetic interior perfect for photography. Air conditioning: 10/10 - Sobrang lamig. Services: 100/10 - The barista is very accomodating and friendly. It's a little pricey but worth trying! Please note that there is services charge includes.

Quiet art café serving vegetarian dishes Interiors are rustic and artsy, and needs a little bit of cleaning They serve really good coffee and one can choose their beans! We loved their rice bowls especially Shawarma and Sisig rice bowls which were delicious, cruelty free Will come back to have dinner again next time. They have free parking outside for 3-4 cars I hope they can publish calorie counts and improve on wheelchair access

Had a beautiful, serene time here. I was able to sink into my journaling because the ambience was so cozy. Playlist was elite, playing everything from the Beatles to Ella Fitzgerald to Celeste and Billie Eilish. It was a very well curated playlist that allows you to get into reading and writing mode. The Orange Chick'un was done well. 295 only if i remember. It's oyster mushrooms battered and fried then coated in an orange sesame sauce, on top of rice. Simple but delicious and for a vegetarian like me it was a novel option offered by a café, a departure from the ubiquitous truffle pasta that's usually offered as an afterthought in other cafes. Chocolate drink was good, could tell they used high quality cacao and a natural sweetener so it wasn't overly sweet. Had a mild, natural, nutty taste. 100+ pesos. Basta fairly priced. Lighting and interiors were all rich amber, honey colored lights and dark wood. Very cozy. There's a bookshelf from which you can grab a read if you didn't bring anything. They have space for parking but not a lot of cars. I suggest going via grab or train. Aircon was just right, not hot but it was raining when i went. Just the right temp to be comfortable and get lost in your book, your writing. Staff even lent me some scissors for my crafting when I asked and they told me to pay only after my stay. Very nice. Other customers also clearly were enjoying themselves. There are communal tables and also individual reading nooks with lamps. Ample setups for different types of customers, from titas getting together to the lone millennial or gen z just looking for somewhere peaceful.

Three things I loved that make me want to come again: It's accessible via the LRT2 Betty Go-Belmonte station. The coffee was so good! I got the barista's signature ventura highway. It was refreshing and balanced. The menu is very plant-centric! Bonus thing I liked was the well thought out use of space. There were nooks for solo patrons and a mix of different-sized tables for pairs and bigger groups. This would be a great place to do deep work if need a change of vibe to get your creative juices flowing.

Super cute and cozy vegan cafe! The matcha id the best I’ve had in Manila!!!! Food is also delicious, and it’s a great spot to hang out with friends or study!

I LOOOVE this cafe! It feels like the owners actually thought out everything… it just screams personality and warmth <3 You can see it in every corner of the place, even more so in the food! I’m absolutely amazed by how the food was reimagined. I’m assuming it’s because the owners are vegan? Whatever the reason, it’s well reflected. My favorite items: • Matcha - DID NOT DISAPPOINT. Other cafes usually just add matcha to the menu without researching it, so it ends up being a weak item. But theirs??? They know their matcha game. • Cauliflower Poppers - SOOO GOOD! A delight and a great palate experience. They made it so flavorful. The garlic aioli didn’t taste as expected, but it was pleasantly good. The cafe is very homey and has a global village core vibe, perfect for people looking for a cozy space to study or read. The only downside is the ventilation and temperature inside; it can get stuffy with just one AC. Also, parking gets cramped :<
