Have A Relaxing Afternoon At Cafe Talk

​The coffee scene in the Queen City of the South experienced the emergence of different cafes catering to the different needs of the residents and visitors of the city. The city has a good number of home-grown brands that have become popular among the locals and visitors to Cebu. In addition, some big name international brands have also opened branches all over the city. There are also smaller themed coffee shops that have created their own niche in the market and have attracted the attention of coffee drinkers all over the city. One of these coffee shops is Café Talk.

Café Talk

Café Talk is not your run-of-the-mill coffee shop since it evokes a cozy ambiance that makes you want to relax after a stressful day at work. It has a similar theme as other Korean cafes in the city where they do not really follow the typical coffee shop setup. Instead of the usual tables and chairs, Café Talk offers small nooks where you can enjoy your food and drinks while loafing around.

The nooks have small tables, stuffed toys, and pillows. This makes the place somewhat relaxing. You can opt to bring a book or borrow one of the books available at the café. They also have some board games you can play with your friends after a day at work or school.
