MANILA, Philippines – If your daily coffee runs have been starting to hurt your wallet a bit more each day, you’re not alone and we can totally relate.
Coffee is life, we understand, but having to pay sky-high prices for this life-giving beverage staple daily isn’t the ideal situation for most budget-conscious, on-the-go coffee drinkers.
Luckily, there’s no need to sweat it – if you’ve got a 100-peso bill laying around and an incessant caffeine craving to match, here’s a list of affordable, crowd-favorite coffee buys for a brew-tiful day.
Note: We’ve narrowed the list down to coffee that’s freshly-made (or as freshly-made as possible) and as widely available as possible. Ready-to-drink coffee deserves another list, as does fresh coffee on-the-go from other areas in the Philippines.
Dunkin’ Donuts (or the brand that will soon be known as just Dunkin‘)
Who wants the D? If that D stands for Dunkin’, then count us in. The legendary iced latte of the famed donut chain has been the talk of the coffee-loving town for some time now, and for good reason.

Mcdonald’s
It’s not just the fries they’re after – many McDonald’s fans have also espresso-ed their love for McCafe’s signature Iced Premium Roast coffee.
It doesn’t only make for a tasty, refreshing cooler, but it’s also got that caffeine kick many need. Imagine – P52 has gotten students through all-nighters and many professionals through busy, hectic mornings.
