Our elevation must be the result of self-efforts and work of our own hands.
– Martin Delany
This place in Taguig reminds us of this quote and as we walk toward the roof, where the restaurant is, you’ll end up at a simple place but a homey and welcoming kind of simple cafe named D’ Busy Bean Coffee House. They offer good food and a view of the Metro as we always know; raw, no filter, and depicting the everyday life of everyone.
Here, you can calmly sip your coffee while watching flying planes from a nearby airport. The elevation of the place brings a chill vibe. Of course, since it’s located on top of the CPG Estate Building, you need to go upstairs. There is no elevator inside the building so ready your feet.
We tried some of the classic dishes at D’ Busy Bean Coffee House, and here is our verdict:
EL ARRABIATA
It’s not your ordinary pasta. It has a savory and a little bit sour taste to it, cutting the richness of the sauce that has sausages and ground beef. A perfect pasta indeed!
CHICKEN ALFREDO
It is composed of creamy white sauce and a generous amount of parmesan cheese. A good combination of creamy and salty taste.
FRUTTI DE MARE
Fresh seafood plus the al dente noodles, sautéed with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper topped with parmesan cheese. A simple and homey dish.
HAWAIIAN PIZZA
Nothing beats a classic Hawaiian pizza. We loved how soft the crust is. Of course, the controversial pineapple on pizza! Are you a Hawaiian fan or not? Whether the answer is a yes or no, you must try this flavor.
PEPPERONI PIZZA
Another pizza flavor recommendation to try at D’ Busy Bean Coffee House. This pizza is flavorful. Again, the crust is soft, maybe because it is a hand-tossed pizza.
BEEF CALDERETA
Their take on a classic dish had a good combination of the meaty and savory taste of all the ingredients that include chunks of beef and vegetables such as potatoes and carrots. It has a well-balanced flavor that will captivate your palate.
BEEF KARE-KARE
Peanut buttery good! Savory sauce blended with beef and ox tail makes the perfect harmony of flavors not to mention the taste of bagoong that goes well with this dish. Will definitely visit their place again for this dish. One of our top picks!
CALAMARES
Crunchy with the soft meat of squid goes well with their vinegar and chili dip. A nice way to spice up your appetite.
Of course, it is not called a coffee house without coffee and pastries! Let’s go with the desserts!
We had the opportunity to taste the different kinds of coffee blends such as Frappes and Lattes. Overall, their coffee was not sweet and has a kicking taste of the brewed coffee and was not overpowered by milk.

They also have cheesecakes and leche flan which we tried for dessert, a good ending for their mouthwatering dishes.

More than a combination of a good relaxing spot and delicious set of food, this place is a story of success, the depiction of how striving hard will never go to waste and will get you to a good place—wondering what we meant? Visit their place and know it first hand.
