This Café Gives You a Stunning View of the Manila Cathedral Church

(SPOT.ph) Who hasn't dreamed of dining under the stars in the open streets of Italy or France? It's a romantic prospect—one that you might not think is possible in this side of the world. But we recently got wind of a one-of-a-kind spot that might also offer a similar experience, right in our shores: Say hello to La Cathedral Cafe in Intramuros.

Check out the view!

La Cathedral Cafe is located right behind the Manila Cathedral, giving you a stunning view of the historical monument when you dine at their roof deck. It's decorated with capiz lanterns and touches of greenery, which make for an idyllic ambience especially at night. Be sure to whip out your cameras! It's the perfect setting for a date with your special someone or a casual get-together with your best buds.

Coffee goes great with a good, fudgy chocolate cake. Some of our favorites here in Manila are those by Big Al's Chocolate Cake (which placed first in our 2019 Top 10 Chocolate Cakes in Manila list) and Workshop!
