Four New Coffee Blends Now Available!

 Starting this week, Cafe Antonio will offer FOUR (4) different blends of coffee for our brewed coffee (pressed or pour-over) and espresso coffee.

VARIETIES:
1) OWLTONIO BLEND - this blend is a mixture of Philippine-grown coffee from 3 different coffee species: Arabica, Robusta, and Exelsa. This coffee has a good body and a smooth and sweet finish. Sweetness is even more prominent when it cools down a bit.

2) SLEEPY TIME BLEND - this blend features different Arabica varieties grown in the Cordillera region. This is highly recommended for those who want less caffeine in their cup of coffee since Arabica has lower caffeine content compared to other species of coffee. This is a great substitute for decaf coffee.

3) HARDCORE BLEND (Kapeng Barako) - a classic Pinoy favorite. Bold and intense, great for those who need a caffeine jolt.

4) Brazil Santos Blend - an imported coffee blend from the Santos region in Brazil. Light to medium body with a chocolaty aroma. Excellent for lattes and other milk-based espresso beverages.

See our complete menu at our official blog at www.cafeantonioelbi.blogspot.com

Our coffee is delivered freshly roasted every week and is ground upon ordering to ensure a high quality cup of coffee. Please tell your family and friends to order and pre-order whole bean coffee or ground coffee at our shop.

That Indie Coffee Shop

Jabez Flores - General Manager/Senior Barista at Cafe Antonio

UPLB – known for its diverse student and professional community. From PhD practitioners to BS Party students (who happen to be graceful crammers, wink), it’s been a tough market for establishments such as Café Antonio. People just come and go, so shops that survive in this town for more than 4 years are already called, in Filipino language, “institusyon”.

Café Antonio has been brewing coffee for the UPLB community for more than 4 years now, but it’s not what caught our attention. Of course the coffee is very excellent; every cup reflects ‘Honor and Excellence’ because the shop was started by UPLB graduates.

From time to time, Jabez Flores would let a customer try out a new flavor he’s perfecting. The 25-year-old barista and manager has always been passionate about brewing coffee, giving the customers a warm welcome, and engaging in conversations with them. One UPLB student even remarked that, ‘even though I have recently met these people and I just came in to read a book, mapapatambay talaga ako dito’ (I’m compelled to stay). This is one reason why, even amidst the changing people in UPLB, the café maintained its name.

Cafe Antonio at the new location

Canton recently moved to another site, from the prominent LB Square to a location farther from the university, at Maahas, where it became neighbor to one of our favorite fine-dining restaurants in LB, Arla. But, the café never changed its indie feel. The secluded ambiance made it more possible to relax in the café when you just feel stressed from work and acads. Plus, there are additional surprises on the menu. Baz told TIC that the café is now venturing to tourists and professionals as the café’s target market; still, he hopes that there would be jeepneys having a College-Bay route so students could get a single, straight ride to the cafe.

One more thing that won the hearts of the UPLB community is the trademark of the café as home for the Indie bands in LB. Café Antonio Sessions became a helpful stage for Indie bands and artists to showcase their music and get to know each other, making the Indie music scene stronger. It’s not only the stage, but also the support that the musicians give each other, that makes Café Antonio sessions an effective way to bridge the gap. There will still be sessions in the new site, and there are new names up for the show.
