A cozy place to hang out with your date, friends and even with colleagues. They have wifi. Staff are good-looking which is a plus. Athletic type of decors yet catchy. I almost ask the crew if he is the owner. The place isnt yet done but its still great. We wanna go back again for the chicken.

If you are looking for a place to just hang out, sit, talk and dine with a friend,date, or even group of friends located at La trinidad or somewhere near Baguio, I would definitely recommend this place. couple points, food, snacks,meals and assortment of coffee, beverages and even liquors served generous for a nice price that would fit your budget. Place is dressed cozy with cabin/rustic look but not that fancy na you will feel laid back and at home, people who dine in here aren't that noisy and distracting to other patrons based on my observation. Handful of trail-running memorabilias to check, mostly of the owner's personal accomplishments, this place is dressed as a laid back chalet aid station as if during trail races, reminds me of my time visiting and staying at chalets across Chamonix, alps. 2nd floor tables provides a cool and refreshing breeze from the surrounding mountains, you would enjoy the feel during early evening and with the dimmed lights on adds on the Chalet ambience. Dine, chat, drink, read book, feel cozy alone or with friends.

Aid Station Café is a good place to stay if you need some time for studying or just having your "me" time. Food/Drinks: The serving sizes were pretty good for the price - not 100% match but it was there, alongside the quality. Can't give a perfect 5 just yet since I have only tried a few items. But in any way, the cheesecake was good for the price. The frappe was a bit too sweet, especially the whipped cream which I found (in my personal experience) a bit strange but still good nonetheless. (Will be back to try more items.) Service: It was quite good, just a bit slow - some of the mixing ingredients were not yet mise en place, there were 2 workers at the time iirc, but only one was busy preparing everything. They were polite though so that's a huge point. Counted as service, they accept multiple payment modes which was really nice to see and have for a café. Also, the WiFi is good, as well as having some charging ports. (Will update in a few days.) Ambience: Really nice ambience, perfect for chatting, studying, or just letting your mind be idle for a few moments. Colors were mainly wooden which was cool, lighting was sufficient, and you were still able to hear the music although the location is literally beside the road. Overall, highly recommend. I will be back with an updated review of the cafe. 当店では「業務用抹茶」を使用しています。青草のような風味がありながら、バリスタが淹れる抹茶のような独特の後味も楽しめます。
