Coffee enthusiasts and nature lovers have a new reason to go on weekend road trips as Starbucks Philippines unveiled its latest gem in the picturesque city of Tagaytay - Starbucks Reserve Hiraya.

The popular coffeehouse chain gave a glimpse of its newly opened premium cafe and roastery in a Facebook post on Thursday, July 21.

Located at Aguinaldo Highway, Silang Crossing West, Tagaytay City, Starbucks Reserve Hiraya welcomes coffee lovers with a refreshing concept.

The impressive Starbucks Reserve Hiraya is located within a 4,500 square meter space and can accommodate approximately 250 customers, in both indoors and al fresco areas. The cafe's elegantly designed interiors offer a relaxing space for visitors to unwind and enjoy a delightful coffee experience.  

No need to worry about finding parking when you visit. With 63 parking spaces available, customers can savor their favorite brew without having to find a spot along the rdige's narrow streets. 

The highlight of the newest Starbucks branch is the stunning view of Taal Lake, framed by the elegant earth tones of the store's interior.  

The breathtaking sight greets visitors as they step into the store, offering a tranquil ambiance that complements the Starbucks Reserve concept. Embracing local artistry, Starbucks Reserve Hiraya showcases woven panels and materials, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for diners.  

Starbucks Reserve Hiraya also introduces an exclusive treat. The branch bakes all their oven-fresh pastries on-site, including an indulgent selection of tarts and croissants. Not to be missed is the branch's signature Hiraya Latte, available exclusively in this store.  

Starbucks Reserve Hiraya is poised to become a sought-after destination for those seeking a tranquil coffee escape in the heart of Tagaytay.
