An ambient, welcoming, and chill place to past time, work, or to catch up with friends. The place is not that big but is enough to accommodate a large crowd on a busy day. Main highlight of the place is the bar table, I love how the liqours and beverage are displayed plus the wood top and accents of the place gives that calming and at home feeling. Serivce is great! Staff is friendly and quick to action, the food is also good and we've ordered the Bacon Truffle Pasta and Chicken Pesto, I'll be editing this review for the details on the food but overall I can say that they are quality made.

Tried Cala Cafe again after such a long time (2018-2019) and I was not disappointed. I ordered their grilled cheese sandwich however, I was only able to take a picture after I ate half of it because it was so good when I tried it. The sourdough was tasty and the cheese they used had just the right amount of tart. Happy that they now serve it with chips and a side salad that was crisp and not overly-soaked in dressing. As for my drink, I got a Spanish latte and as a black coffee drinker, I did not find it too sweet and would order it again if I am to come back here. As for other things, the place had fast wifi, power outlets, and accommodating staff. The tables were perfect for work. The menu had cocktails such as an amaretto sour since the place changes its vibe to a speakeasy at night.

It’s a work friendly cafe serving great food, real coffee and when you’re in the mood for some cocktails after work, it’s the place to be. Last time, we tried the chicken wings and it’s yummy. Today, I ordered Chicken Salad, Shrimp Aglio Olio, Smoked Sausage and Spanish Latte. Lahat masarap. Total bill was Php1130 with service charge. They also have Wi-Fi, sockets, comfortable seats, and friendly staff. I’ll keep coming back. :)

It was our first time to try Cala Cafe. It was near the PETA Theatre. We ordered the nachos and it was really delicious! I tried the Spanish Latte and it was nice. The whole cafe has a modern vibe. The service was really spot on.

We were looking for somewhere chill and cozy and Cala did not disappoint! Food was exceptional and well-priced. We ordered the Spicy Sardines which was flavorful and the Grilled Cheese which was toasted and seasoned perfectly. We also had their Sea Salt Latte and Amaretto Sour - both really made with expertise. Service is hands down the best.. thank you Nadine! Will definitely go back :)

This cafe is a 5-min walk away from PETA theater. I enjoyed everything I got, especially the sea salt latte. Card payments are accepted. Few parking slots are available in the front of the store.

Great atmosphere, good for studying bc they have wifi and outlets. Very limited space tho. It turns into kind of a bar at night so the lights dim n they give u this lamp thing. The food could use some work (we ordered the pasta) but their MATCHA was amazing. Definitely recommend.
