I’ve been wanting to check out the coffee place near the Butuan City Sports Complex and I finally got the chance last Sunday afternoon, just before sunset. Thanks to a good friend, Jhie.
Kapihan sa Datu sits on an open space quite accessible in the city. A play park for kids is just adjacent to it, which is really a cool thing for parents. They can have coffee while their kids are playing. While you are there, you also get a view of the majestic Mt. Mayapay.
The place serves freshly brewed coffee (Manobo blend), pastries and even barbecue at night. I would say the price for their coffee and food is quite friendly to the pocket. They also have a souvenir shop which features products from Butuan as well as from the Caraga region (pastries, coffee, native bags, among others).
Kapihan sa Datu also has a wi-fi connection so you can actually go there with your laptop and check your emails as you drink your coffee. But that Sunday afternoon, I came with my hubby and a couple of friends. We drank our latte, ate hot dogs and well, just talked 🙂
Kapihan sa Datu is open daily from 9 am to 11 pm.

Are those big feeding bottles on the counter? So cute. What a relaxing place:)
Thank’s for joining!
The containers of sweets on the counter were shaped like big feeding bottles 🙂
Hmmm…. Looks like a nice relaxing place to stay for an hour or two. 🙂 Reminds me of a program “Kapihan sa CDO” back then, when I was doing my OJT at the PIA Region 10 and Radyo ng Bayan. I wonder if there is a Kapihan sa CDO place na pud karon. TV program ra man to sauna. 😀

i wondered if they serve food at all and was glad when you wrote that they do.. i have to know because what good is coffee and the view if there is no food to munch on, right? or maybe it is just me lol

Fairly certain he’s going to have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
