Aside from being known as the ‘Heart of Bicol’, ‘Pilgrim City’, and ‘Maogmang Lugar’ (happy place) Naga City has been flourishing when it comes to its hospitality industry like hotels, food businesses, and more so with cafes.

So, if you are planning to visit Bicol any time soon, you might wanna try these cafes in Naga City.

Harina Cafe

Located on Magsaysay Avenue, this cafe offers both comfort and class at the same time. With its aesthetically pleasing interiors, you can certainly relax while sipping on your favorite drink. They offer a wide range of menu selections from drinks to their rice meals and pasta. Of course, let’s not forget about their pastries. If you have a sweet tooth like me, then you should definitely come and try out their brownies, macarons, tarts, cakes, and a whole lot more!

Unica Coffee Bar

Are you into minimalist cafes? If yes, then say hello to Unica Coffee Bar! This newly opened cafe is known for its Muji and Scandinavian-inspired theme located in San Felipe, Naga City. If you don’t see any available tables inside the cafe, then don’t fret because they have an al-fresco area that is perfect for people who want to enjoy the breeze.

Also, you don’t have to worry about your cars, because they certainly have a designated parking space for your vehicles. Students or Working Individuals can surely enjoy their productivity because of the availability of electrical outlets.

Now, for the best part; their menu features a selection of refreshers, appetizers, pasta, sandwiches, tacos, and pastries. I personally ordered their hot Caramel Macchiato and their Traditional Carbonara; of course, both are my favorites!

Tugawe Cove Cafe

If you want to try a taste of Bicol, then go to Tugawe Cove Cafe! Located on Mayon Avenue, this cozy cafe features the pride of Bicol – Bicol Express Cannelloni, Pili Crunch Cheesecake, Pili Macchiato, and more! A cafe and bookshop in one. Just below Tugawe, you can find and visit Savage Mind: Arts, Books, Cinema and enjoy a great selection of books.
