The first pop-up cafe for any M&S franchise globally is open now until October 20 at Alabang Town Center where guests can enjoy the safe outdoor space, indulge in good eats, and take home a Kindness Leaf from the interactive Kindness Tree.
Marks & Spencer brings people together in a safe space outdoors with the first pop-up cafe for any M&S franchise globally. Until October 20, Alabang Town Center guests can enjoy flavorful pastries, favorite M&S brews, classic M&S cookies and biscuits, and the newly launched iced teas. A charming interactive installation called the Kindness Tree awaits visitors who can take home a Kindness Leaf, a paper ornament with a lovely message written by fellow patrons.
For lazy afternoons
M&S’ breezy outdoor venue welcomes customers to make new memories, and take a break from the hustle and bustle of Metro Manila with its delectable treats. Surrounded by lush greens, the alfresco space guarantees a safe venue to spend quality time with loved ones.
A taste of European Alfresco Dining
The quaint IG-worthy pop-up cafe is charmingly designed to give you the UK garden cafe feel with its white wooden lattice structure decorated with foliage. Marks & Spencer’s Pop-Up Cafe has a variety of offerings for pastry connoisseurs including fluffy muffins, doughnuts, scones, croissants, cookies, and shortbread that are served in a pastry bag- taking you to a true Euro outdoor dining experience.
Ensuring a perfect pastry pairing are drink options including hot and cold coffee brews and teas. The pop-up will also feature the newly launched fruit-infused iced teas initiated by M&S Philippines. Perfect for warm and even breezy days, the refreshing iced teas are made from crowd favorite M&S teas and sweetened with sugar cane syrup. For people on the go, the cafe will also have a gift shop that offers classic M&S snacks such as puff biscuits, tortilla chips, crackers, shortbread, tea, hot chocolate, and coffee.
Kindness all around
The cherry on top of the feel-good cafe is a five-foot Kindness Tree that fosters an environment of compassion and positivity for those who seek it. Facilitated by the friendly M&S cafe staff, customers are urged to both receive and leave positive and inspiring words to fellow patrons through the tree’s paper leaf ornament called the Kindness Leaf. Whether it be a quote from a favorite novel, a line from a song, or an uplifting personal message, someone who needs an extra boost and motivation would definitely appreciate the kind words, even from a stranger.
Marks and Spencer’s Pop-up Cafe is at the ground level, Town Plaza, Alabang Town Center.
