The Coffee Bean Tea Leaf

What I Had: Baked Fusili Pink Guava Juice What I Love: Always, always, with CBTL is the staff — friendly, accommodating, attentive, and responsive to requests. I came in looking for a good spot, and the staff immediately approached me and help me get seated (there’s quite a crowd). I’ll probably have anything with my favorite pink guava juice here but i’d say the baked fusili is okay. Enough meat in it, only downside is that the pasta and the cheese on top can get a bit chewy when it’s get cold.

I love The coffee bean and tea leaf Ayala VERTIS NORTH. The ambiance was so good very peaceful and relaxing especially when they played relaxing music. You know I feel so relaxed and peaceful, I will Visit again the CBTL VERTIS NORTH Branch.

Starbucks in Vertis North is small and very crowded so we went to CBTL because it's so much more roomier and there were less people in. The staff were very upbeat and friendly from the moment we entered. We had cafe latte, iced blended pure vanilla and pure double chocolate. They all tasted great (however, I think the ice blended drinks are a bit small for the price). As for the cakes (we had a cheesecake and chocolate fudge), they tasted alright and the price is great for the size/taste.

Ayala’s Vertis North joined a cluster of growing malls in North of Edsa late last year. Currently, they are still finishing up the roster of retail and food establishments. On Vertis’ ground floor is Coffee Bean Tea Leaf. I chanced upon a visit here one morning and settled for their breakfast of Corned Beef and Eggs. Although I could’ve prepared that at home, it’s not the same without their signature cup of strong Amerikano. On top of that, the ambiance here is both inviting and relaxing.

My all time favorite tea latte is Chai. Some might find it mild but I just love the taste. Just order it hot during rainy days and iced during a warm afternoon.
