Check out harlan + holden coffee's newest branch in Taguig:
While this is hardly the brand's first store—it's the third in the BGC-Taguig area alone—there's a rumor about this spot being the brand's first all-day (read: 24-hour) branch. Note that this hasn't been confirmed yet. What we do know is that the new Uptown Bonifacio spot is already open until midnight daily. Fingers crossed they extend their opening hours to the whole 24 hours on the clock!
Regardless, harlan + holden Coffee Uptown Bonifacio is still one to watch. Located in what used to be the Uptown Bonifacio fountain, the 180-seater, mostly glass architecture, is a beauty. The new spot sports a modern design with a mix of bright white walls, metal, grey, and beige details. The look is pretty sleek, giving it an oasis-like vibe, whether under the sweltering summer sun or the hazy night sky.
You'll also be glad to know this branch has more seating options. Unlike most harlan + holden coffee shops where seating is basically an afterthought, at the Uptown Bonifacio branch, you're spoiled for choice: high counter-style tables, casual bar seating, and cozy little coffee tables can be found at the coffee shop, perfect for either a solo work session or a casual chika with the gals.
What to order at harlan + holden coffee's newest branch in Uptown Bonifacio?
Let's face it, no one really goes to harlan + holden just to hangout. The brand's main draw is its menu. If you're a because Coffee loyalist, you'll be glad to know that you can grab a cup or take-away bottle of the signature harlan + holden drinks you love. Yup, at this open-til-late Harlan + Holden Coffee branch, you can get your s'mores-in-a-cup Campfire Coffee, or a classic Sea Salt Latte just in time for the early morning rush, midday coffee break, or a late-night nightcap.
That's not all that's making a comeback; their signature matcha and chocolate soft-serve are also available here, along with their pastries and sweet treats like cookies, toffee barks, and more.
Aside from the usuals, more adventurous eaters will be delighted to know that this new spot also sports a bunch of exclusive savory hand pies, sandwiches, and flatbreads.
For something warm and indulgent, the Mushroom Truffle Flatbread (P155) is an easy favorite. This savory, pizza-like baked treat is made of a crisp dough slathered with creamy truffle sauce, cheese, and a light drizzle of olive oil—comforting stuff without being heavy, rich without being overwhelming. Meanwhile, the Anchovy + Capers Flatbread (P155) caters to those who prefer a saltier, fishier bite. It's loaded with tomato sauce, provolone, actual anchovies, and garlic oil.
If eating pizza's not-so-distant cousin is not on your meal bingo card, two new sandwiches are also on the menu. Meat lovers, make sure to try the Salami Napoli Sandwich (P195). This big bite packs a little heat with its spicy salami, but that's mellowed out by the arugula and its creamy aioli dressing. However, for those skipping the meat, the Salmon Ebiko Sandwich (P210) is a solid option too. It's rich but balanced, and boasts a generous layering of smoked salmon, popping ebiko, mayo dressing, and crisp lettuce in fluffy-soft bread.
In true harlan + holden grab-and-go fashion, our favorite has got to be their new grilled cheese sandwiches. These quick and easy bites are perfect for those looking for a filling eat on the go. Two new cheesy melts are on the menu.
The Tomato Jam and Cheese (P150) is a bread-forward take on the classic tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich pairing. It's a sweet-savory tomato jam slathered on toasted bread with ooey-gooey melted cheese. Your other cheesement option is harlan + holden's take on the Cheesesteak Melt (P195). It's stacked with roast beef brisket, grilled onions, lots of cheese, and a garlic dressing that's creamy and flavorful sans extreme post-meal garlic breath.
With its new look and branch-exclusive eats, there's more than one reason to hit up harlan + holden Uptown Bonifacio. Plus the fact that it's an open-'til-late coffee shop smack in the middle of Uptown's party strip, who wouldn't want to visit?
