Hija Mia Coffee

The experience

Hija Mia is a small independent specialty cafe in El Poblado's Manila barrio, founded by an Australian couple and focused on small-batch roasted coffee. The compact space serves carefully pulled espresso drinks, filter coffee and a short breakfast-and-brunch menu. It sits on a quiet residential street away from Provenza's crowds, drawing remote workers and coffee-minded locals on weekday mornings.

A tiny, serious coffee bar in Manila with some of the city's best cappuccinos.
