At Neighbor Coffee, the menu reflects a thoughtful selection of beverages crafted with care. Whether you are a coffee aficionado or a tea lover, there’s something for everyone.

The unsweetened oat milk matcha is a standout, receiving praise for its authentic taste, and the housemade chai is a warm, comforting choice in cooler weather.

Heard about the coffee shop through friends and mutuals. Ordered their specialty coffee of espresso and orange juice. Its nice, but the baristas were not as welcoming as I anticipated. Vibes are good, trendy, and youthful but would order their other specialties and coffee based drinks next time around.

We ordered a variety of drinks made with both Robusta and Arabica beans, and they were all excellent. The cafe is cozy, spacious, and very aesthetic, with great prices. The staff was also incredibly friendly, even helping our friends who didn't speak Ilonggo. It was a great experience, and I would definitely go back - and I highly recommend it.

A cozy cafe serving handmade coffee and tea. They are one of the cafes in Iloilo that serve legit matcha. The vibes are very millenial and gen z. I would recommend this place for a cup of good coffee and matcha.

Cute cafe located at the Shops at Atria. The vibe, atmosphere and the look of the cafe is perfect. Homey but still aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. It was packed when we came and I understand why. They offer coffee done right. I ordered the Spanish Latter and I was really happy with the taste. The coffee was strong and bold. I would prefer ordering matcha but they were soldout when we visited.

A must try Coffee Shop, good ambiance, well-trained and friendly barista. Also they will ask you about what you prefer in your drink, i ordered Iced Matcha and the barista asked me if i prefer without sugar syrup so i replied: yes. But it turned out not for me because it taste grassy so i asked them to add sugar syrup. I love their Matcha, hope to try their Coffee if makabalik ako liwat. Small space lang sa sulod but they have table and chairs if you prefer outdoor, free wifi naman sila.

Went to work. I think the place is best for just chilling. Seating is a bit cramped but the aesthetic is nice. I tried their orange coffee, a flavor I tried for the first time. It’s not for me. Ill need to try their regular coffee offerings. Also had the cinnamon waffle. Tastes good but not the best snack. Only good when it’s hot and toasty.

They do an excellent Spanish latte here. They have all the ratios right so the coffee flavor still comes through strong. Seating can be a little tight inside, so I wouldn't recommend it as a place to sit down to work or with a group.
