1. Assembly Hall, Makati
Assembly Hall is an invitingly open space perfect for humans and furry companions. Although it’s just across Poblacion, the nightlife hub in Makati, it’s a quiet and cozy spot where you can get work done or catch up with friends. They have array of unique specialty drinks like their best-selling Campfire Latte, which is precisely like a toasty cup of smores.
Visit Assembly Hall at 2F, HMA 773 building, JP Rizal Makati.

2. YDG Coffee, Mandaluyong
YDG Coffee, short for “Your Daily Grind”, knows that a good cup of coffee is essential to getting work done. The best part? It’s pet‑friendly! You can choose between indoor or outdoor seating, so your pup can relax and enjoy the fresh air too. We recommend their Burnt Caramel Latte, made with a shot of espresso, milk, burnt caramel, and torched foam that hits just the right sweetness and warmth.
Visit YDG Coffee at Ground Floor, Mandala Park, Shaw Blvd, Mandaluyong City.

3. Flutter Coffee, Malate
Your furry friend will surely receive a warm welcome by the baristas at Flutter Coffee! The cafe sits right by the Manila Bay, making it a breezy spot to relax after a walk with your pup. Don’t miss out on their bestselling Spanish Oats Flutter, their take on a Spanish Latte but made with creamy oat milk for a plant-based treat.
Visit Flutter Coffee at 2164, M.H. Del Pilar, Unit 107, Aguida St Malate, Manila.

Looking for something more laid-back and cozy? Kohi Kurabu is the perfect spot to escape the hustle of city life. Located right by the edge of Metro Manila, this minimalist cafe in Marikina is one that regulars keep coming back to for the warm, calming space for both humans and their furry companions. We recommend their Honey Lemon Espresso Tonic for the perfect afternoon pick-me-up.

7. The Black Bean, Makati
Those in the know will tell you that The Black Bean first made its name in Alabang with its great coffee and laid-back vibe. Now, it’s found a new home in the lively streets of Legazpi Village, bringing the same quality brews to a whole new crowd. The space is warm, welcoming, and perfect for your next coffee run or catch-up session. If you’re not sure what to order, go for the Hojicha Cream Latte, it’s as delicious as it looks.

Plus, the cozy setup makes it easy to unwind while your pup lounges by your side.
