Discover the Charm of Mt. Apo Brew Cafe

Nestled in the serene surroundings of Purok Moon, Managa in Bansalan, Davao del Sur, Mt. Apo Brew Cafe is a delightful haven for coffee lovers and nature enthusiasts alike. This charming cafe offers not just a menu filled with rich, aromatic brews but also a picturesque view of the rolling hills and lush vegetable farms that encapsulate the beauty of the region.

As you step into this cozy retreat, you’re greeted by friendly staff who genuinely care about ensuring your experience is nothing short of exceptional. Indulge in their signature sikwate, a traditional Filipino hot chocolate, paired splendidly with suman, making it the perfect snack to savor as you take in the cool mountain breeze. Many patrons, such as Dinah Feolog, have shared their joy in the complimentary cookies served alongside their coffee, a small yet thoughtful touch that makes the experience even more delightful.

The ambiance is tranquil, allowing you to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Joel Sano described it as a “peaceful escape,” emphasizing the calming effect the surrounding nature has on visitors. Whether you're catching up with friends or seeking solitude, the serene atmosphere here is a beautiful backdrop for any occasion.

While the menu is a considerable draw, the cafe's location is equally compelling. Perched with views that inspire awe, you won't be able to resist pausing to soak in the beauty that envelops you. Rene Thöne highlighted this in his review, appreciating the "fresh air" and the stunning views that lend themselves to a purely blissful experience.

Of course, no establishment is without its minor imperfections. Several reviews noted the lack of flush toilets, but the cleanliness of the facilities received praise, showcasing the commitment the cafe has towards maintaining a pleasant environment. For others, like Iamorange tree, it's a small price to pay for such a heartwarming escape.

So, whether you're on your way to Haven’s Dew or Montefrio, make sure to stop by Mt. Apo Brew Cafe. Enjoy good coffee, delectable snacks, and an unbeatable view that leaves you feeling rejuvenated and happy. As one happy customer, Eva, put it perfectly, “Love it here!”

We ordered coffee and it came with some extra cookies. It was a very pleasant surprise. Since I like my coffee extra hot so I had to take it back to the counter and they quickly corrected the temperature to my taste.The place overlooked the a picturesque scenery. It was very calming and the breeze was so fresh. The price was reasonable. Their toilet was clean. They could add another toilet stall because it looked like they are getting very popular around the area. Kudos to a beautifully managed coffee shop.

A very nice view about the hills and vegetables farms around... And very friendly staff and a good coffee or chocolate. And... Fresh air! A great Stop over to breathe and enjoy live and Gods (and man-made) creations.

Coffee is good. View is wonderful. The only drawback is that they don't have a flush toilet.

Love it here! Sikwate is our favorite although there are other coffee drinks available. The suman that came with the sikwate is good though only a small portion but they have 2 pieces of biscuits with sesame seeds or longa which you can enjoy while watching the great view of the mountain. You can pass this shop from bansalan if you are on the way to haven’s dew or montefrio.

It’s kinda giving chill while drink hot coffee and sikwate with a bite of their ilocano suman. I so loved it! Especially, I’m a big Ilocano blood.

We arrived at around 5:30 a.m., and they graciously accommodated us even though they were supposed to open at 6 a.m. The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming! The sikwate with suman, priced at just 120 pesos, was absolutely worth every penny. It was the perfect treat for the chilly weather. The place has a relaxed and cozy vibe, making it a great spot to unwind. They also provide a sink and a clean comfort room for convenience.
