This Aesthetic Cafe in Crosswinds Tagaytay Lets You Write Letters for Your Loved Ones
In a world full of technological advancements, letter-writing may seem cheesy and inefficient, but this old-fashioned method of communication carries more sentimental weight than quick texts or tweets. And what goes better with a long writing session than a good cup of coffee? Cavite-based cafe Dear Joe offers you that exact experience
The Philippines’ first letter-writing cafe, Dear Joe is actually the brainchild of the folks behind the Coffee Project franchise, so you can expect IG-worthy aesthetics in every corner.
All around the cafe is a sleek yet comfortable vibe that is reminiscent of the American retro style. The earthy palette and warm lighting are easy on the eyes, allowing customers to spend long hours in the cafe comfortably. The walls are painted in various shades of green, gray, and white, while decorative pieces and artworks hang all over the place.
You can choose a seat between regular-level chairs or high stools by bar-top tables. In between tables and in the corners of the cafe, pops of greenery are placed strategically to add a touch of nature to the charming cafe.
After snapping some shots, make sure to grab some of Dear Joe’s very own stationery so you can write your letters while enjoying your cup of coffee.
Coffee and therapeutic writing? Count us in!
Indeed, the picturesque Crosswinds remains unrivaled today—a quaint community where you can just wind down and enjoy a breath of fresh air.
Admittedly though, it’s one of the few simple pleasures in life that is now hard to come by, especially when you live in a highly dense urban center. While others would regularly go out of town and immerse themselves in nature retreats, some went as far as finding homes and communities where there is an abundance of recreational open spaces, lush parks and gardens in a pristine environment where fresh cool breeze is a natural amenity that can be readily enjoyed.
