Dutch Colony Coffee Co who started their first outlet in the East at Franket Avenue, then moved to the other extreme West, at Pasar Bella Turf City, has now travelled south. You will now find them at the fringe of town, Dutch Colony Coffee Co at UE Square. It is great news for me.
One of the reason what I love about Dutch Colony Coffee Co is that they have various beans for selection. More importantly, the coffee beans changes regularly. I visited them 3 times in the span of 2 months and at each visit, different beans were offered.
The design and vibes at the UE Square outlet is different from the first 2 outlets. This outlet is contrary to the sisters which were on the “dark side”, though they have the same industrial theme. This is sleek and white.
At all my three visits, I ordered Cappuccino with different beans. First was Colombia Finca La Plata Huila, next was the Panama Geisha and finally, I was greeted with their classic blend, Dutch Colony.
Besides the usual espresso based coffee, Dutch Colony Coffee Co is one of the handful cafe that offered hand brew coffee which I felt is very unappreciated.
At the UE Square outlet, a variety of cakes and pastry were also available. But I must say, they aren’t fantastic. It was decent though. It would be perfect if they could improve the standard of the bake goods.
NAHMJ Verdict
I would certainly return to Dutch Colony Coffee Co when I am in need of a serious caffeine fix. And since they are so much nearer to my now, no doubt about going back again and again. But a pity, they don’t open till late.
