Orcafe – Pilar Village, Las Pinas

Posted by Ian Galliguez in Eat and Drink | 0 comments

Tucked into a quiet unassuming commercial center is Orcafe, a coffee and ice cream house. It’s actually very reminiscent of my college days as the establishment had that “student” feel. Well, of course it would as it’s right next to a college – doink.

But I digress. The cafe does have this wonderful warm vibe. As soon as you enter, the staff would immediately greet you and ask how your day has been. It’s like she’s an empath, knowing how you feel and with that information, she would then suggest your meal. For this trip, we wanted comfort food and she suggested the carbonara and the deconstructed chicken sandwich. I had to raise a skeptical eyebrow on the deconstructed chicken bit, thinking about a mutilated chicken corpse in my head. She seemed to pick up on it and smiled and said “it’s something like, make your own chicken sandwich with potato chips.” Eyebrow down and cheeky grin up.

The couches are quite small, but it fits the place and it was still very comfy. There were board games that are free to use by the patrons, encouraging them to hang out. Magazines were stacked in little cubby holes and a small area is reserved for the acoustic band that plays every Friday and Saturdays.

Orcafe also has some promos: If you reach 600 pesos worth of orders (single or accumulated) within two weeks, you get a free frappe of your choice! Just get your frequent visit card for them to stamp and after two weeks, get your free frappe! They also have a referral program wherein you get a free scoop of ice cream for every 5 customers referred.

You can visit Orcafe at Commercial unit 3 Unit C Rose Avenue, Pilar Village, Las Pinas City. They’re open from Monday to Saturday, 4PM to 1AM and Sundays at 3PM to 10PM. They also accept event reservations.
