O'Railey's Cafe


My good friend Rochelle recently opened a cafe called O'Railey's Cafe in G/F One Joroma Place Bldg, Congressional Ave QC. It's located just a few buildings from Starbucks and right beside Crave Burger Congressional.

I took this opportunity to see her since its been years since we last saw each other and at the same time, host a bloggers event to cover her cafe and spreading the news of its existence in the blogging world.


The place was small but very cozy. It can sit around 10 people and it had the homey feel of a cafe. The chairs were comfortable to sit at but not too comfortable to warrant sitting on for hours. This is probably a good move on the owners part to ensure the turn around of people.



I also like how a lot of the small details were personalized. It felt that the cafe had a personality of its own.





We were given 4 drinks to try. We had the Cafe Mocha and Caramello for the hot drinks and we had the sparkling soda as well as the milk tea.


caramello ... my favorite!

cafe mocha

uber refreshing Sparkling Soda

Wintermelon and Hazelnut milk tea
I liked most of the drinks. It was served with just the right amount of sugar and the taste was not overbearing. It didn't leave any aftertaste which was a plus in my book. Not seen here is the Strawberry Milk Tea that we had which was really good.

They also serve pasta and cakes. 

pesto
carbonara
bolognese

Overall, I would definitely recommend their coffee, sparkling soda, and milk tea. I have yet to try their cake and savor the pasta next time. I was so full that I wasn't able to do justice to it.

* I was invited to review the food. I did not pay for my meal. However, the free meal did not in any way sway my opinion and everything you read here is MY PERSONAL OPINION.

  11. Sorry, I don't drink coffee. Enjoy your coffee break at O'Raileys Cafe. Besides, I don't crave for such alertness-inducing drink since I was a kid, though my parents were drinking them every early in the morning.

  24. i need a coffee now!

    nice ambiance and presentation of coffee, drinks and food...do they offer cakes and sandwiches too?

    ReplyDelete
  25. at first, I read it as "oh really". This looks like a good place to stop buy for a snack or too. With their limited capacity, that was a good idea to make their chairs have a "comfortable expiration time" (pass this time and you won't be comfortable with the chair anymore lol).
