"This newly opened coffee spot in Tabaco City, "But First Coffee," is a breath of fresh air. In contrast to many other local establishments, it boasts ample parking space and a serene ambiance just beyond the city limits on the way to Malinao and Tiwi. The interior exudes coziness and is perfect for Instagram-worthy moments. The generously sized tables easily accommodate your laptops, gadgets, and the limited yet visually appealing menu items. While the food is aesthetically pleasing and beautifully presented, it falls somewhat short in terms of variety. It would be wonderful if they could expand the menu to include pancakes, waffles, rice meals, chicken wings, or even pizza. Their coffee strikes a balance between affordability and quality. It would be even more enticing if they infused their brews with a unique identity that sets them apart from the competition. A notable highlight is their 500 ml coffee jar, a clever form of guerrilla marketing that leaves a lasting impression. The staff is generally courteous and warm, providing excellent customer service. However, there was one exception—the individual who took our orders seemed less welcoming. Fortunately, the rest of the uniformed staff made up for this. In summary, "But First Coffee" offers a refreshing addition to Tabaco City's dining scene, promising a unique experience. I'm eager to return and savor their coffee once more."
