Franchising The coffee experience cafe

Many people still remember The Coffee Experience as the outlet with the big X. To all our customers we were known as Coffee X (we can easily spot old timers….it's in the way you say it). Neatly tucked beneath the stairwell of the old Quad 2, customers would come and enjoy their first sips of espresso beverages... finding it to be a truly awakening experience.

When The Coffee Experience was later transferred to the Glorietta Activity Center, it was known as "the store in the middle" of Glorietta…serving that cool drink…the Latte Mocha. Passersby were intrigued by the machines for it was the first time they could see and watch coffee preparation as an art! They too could hear the nuances of preparing freshly ground coffee and smell the coffee as it is extracted. Perfectly frothed milk, (an art in itself), when added to the espresso to make a cappuccino, will intrigue one's senses as you sip and experience it's flavorful, velvety difference.

It was this first outlet that paved the way for other Coffee X outlets to set their niche in various malls. Soon after this opening, The Coffee Experience was seen in the premises of the Shangri-la Plaza Mall, Robinson's Galleria and SM Megamall in the same year. Now with 20 outlets to boost, The Coffee Experience has become a part of the Filipino's daily habit. Proud to be the first espresso bar in the country, TCE continues to adhere to its standards of product quality and service efficiency. Our passion for serving only the freshest ingredients makes every cup a pleasurable coffee experience.
