A Glimpse of Yesterday

Coffee Masters Inc. (CMI), the Philippine franchisee for Seattle’s Best Coffee chain of coffee shops, was incorporated in 1999.

The first Seattle’s Best Coffee shop in the Philippines was opened in 2000 at E. Rodriguez Ave. in Quezon City.

In 2001, they had its grand launching during the opening of its Rockwell store.

The following year, Seattle’s Best Coffee introduced WIFI, becoming the first and pioneer coffee shop to provide this service followed by the very first provincial store opened in SM City Baguio in 2003.

Fast forward on 2006, Seattle’s Best Coffee launched its fresh-cooked meals, integrating kitchen and chefs on its team.

A bit of trivia. Seattle’s Best Coffee is started literally as the best shop in Seattle. A group of coffee shop decided to hold a local competition among them. The winner in their competition was then labeled as Seattle’s Best.

So was my experience at their place?

It was stunningly awesome! I had several menus together with friends. They were all freshly cooked as we ordered them. Amazing, right?

More than that, the food presentation is visually appealing. Grab the camera and take your instagrammable shot! On top of that, the taste is very satifying. It is an experience you won’t regret! Let me share mine!
