My mom, brother and I were in Cagayan de Oro City, Mindanao last weekend and since I still had 3 beverage coupons (yes, similar to those I gave away last December) from Starbucks (thank you Starbucks Philippines! :D) with me, we decided to use them at Starbucks Cagayan de Oro.
Starbucks CDO is the first Starbucks in Mindanao. Dubbed as the 166th store in the Philippines, Starbucks CDO is located at Limketkai Mall corner Rosario Crescent. You can’t miss it — it’s just a few steps away from the main entrance of Lim Ket Kai Mall in Cagayan de Oro.
It was drizzling by the time we reached Starbucks CDO. Notice the water specks on my camera’s lens:
There are several chairs and tables outside. The right side facing the main entrance door is the “smoking area.”
I presented my 3 Starbucks beverage coupons and I was immediately served by the friendly baristas behind the counter 🙂 I was also told of nice piece of news — each of our free drinks also comes with free add-ons! So we ordered mint, chocolate drizzle and extra milk 🙂
The cozy and clean interiors of Starbucks CDO:
Station where you prepare your drinks:
Cafe Americano, Cafe Mocha and White Chocolate Mocha!
It was good to taste the same Starbucks drinks my mom, brother and I know and love 🙂
Starbucks CDO offers wireless Internet connection so it’s no wonder that a lot of people with laptops and notebooks were there that time. Like any other Starbucks outlet around the world, Starbucks Cagayan de Oro offers the perfect space for people to chat with friends, for casual business meetings, for study time before class or even to spend a lazy afternoon by your lonesome.
Apart from coffees, fraps and other hot and cold drinks, Starbucks also offers pastries and sandwiches such as Tiramisu Cheesecake, Mango Peach Cream Pie, Coffee Brownie, Five Cheese Turnover, Chicken Buffalo Bleu and Chicken Galantina and Fontina Cheese on Pandesal.
By the way, the second Starbucks in Mindanao is located at the newly opened Abreeza Mall Davao City.
