Coffee for cinephiles at Yardstick's SM Aura branch
If you like your coffee with a dash of theatrical flair, then you've found your next spot. Yardstick's branch in SM Aura delivers just that, with theater-style curtains that reveal the minimalist coffee bar and mood lighting that casts shadows across the shop. It's not too out there, but this coffee spot injects just the right amount of cinematic inspo to offer movie buffs a unique yet comfy space for their next coffee break or pre-screening pick-me-up.
There's more to this coffee corner than aesthetics. Since you're visiting a Yardstick establishment, you know you're in for a high-quality brew. (It's one of the four cafes in the Philippines named among the World's 100 Best Coffee Shops, after all.)
The branch-exclusive flavors are a huge draw, too. There's the crowd-favorite Popcorn Latte (P220) with popcorn syrup, espresso and milk, but also Hollywood-themed drinks like Spielberg Special (P240) with activated charcoal, oat milk, espresso, and their "feel-good sauce"; the Clockwork Orange (P210) which pairs an orange creamsicle slushie with espresso; and Chocolate Factory (P230) that combines chocolate slushie, espresso, and sea-salt foam. Meanwhile, the ever-changing Now Showing special trains the spotlight on current (or at least recent) movies, like Captain America: Brave New World and Venom: The Last Dance. Non-caffeinated refreshments are also available. Maybe the milkshakes to pair with your popcorn in the theater?
Yardstick's SM Aura Coffee Bar is at 4/F SM Aura, 26th Street Corner McKinley Parkway, Bonifacio Global City. For more information, visit Yardstick's Facebook page.
