Let’s face it: coffee is life.

It’s the major booster Modern Filipinas need when they are on-the go or simply in need of “a cup in hand” moment (thanks, Nescafe).

While anyone could whip up a cup of personal coffee at home, there’s something better in having a barista serve your handcrafted brew and just chill (or work) in a cafe. But for some of us, the idea of coffee outside often brings Starbucks or Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf to mind.

If you’re tired of these go-to cafes, worry not. Today, there’s a wellspring of cafes with interesting twists, which are perfect for girls in love with their coffee.

The name is enough to tell you about this South cafe’s gimmick. It’s all about taking sawi-ness and all your hugot to the next level. The localized cafe boasts of hugot-inspired dishes and beverages, which explains the menu filled with feelings. Customers will enjoy hearing servers shouting hugot lines when they serve the food. Their #HugotWall also invites customers to express their feelings during their visit.

Apart from their affordable and delicious menu, Hugot Cafe reels customers in with activities that allow everyone to express themselves (e.g. open mic jamming sessions, calligraphy sessions, live poetry, etc.) They don’t just feed you good food – they celebrate life with you.
