Looking for something fun to do in Manila this September? If your idea of a good weekend involves getting caffeinated, trying a matcha you’ve never had before, discovering local brands, and turning a “quick stop” into an entire afternoon, you might want to save this one.
Whisk & Brew: A Coffee & Matcha Lifestyle Festival is happening on September 12–13 at The Corner House, bringing together coffee, matcha, food, and lifestyle brands for two days of sipping, discovering, shopping, and playing.
Because this isn’t just another pop-up where you grab a drink and head home.
Think coffee crawl. Think matcha crawl. Then add a few side quests.
Whether you’re particular about your coffee or loyal to your matcha order, there’s plenty to explore. The coffee lineup brings together names like Basis Coffee Outpost, Paul & Nigel Coffee, Two Shots Specialty Coffee, and Book Club Coffee, while matcha fans can make their way through Kura Matcha, Cali Matcha, Genchana, Nuki Nuki Matcha, and more.
And then there’s the part you won’t find on an everyday café menu.
Dehusk is joining Whisk & Brew as the festival’s Official Milk Partner, with several participating brands creating exclusive Dehusk drinks specifically for the festival.
Yes, exclusive.
These drinks will only be available at Whisk & Brew, so if you spot one that catches your eye, this is your chance to try it before they’re gone. Consider this your sign to skip your usual order—just this once.
Of course, no good crawl is complete without a little friendly competition.
Grab your Whisk & Brew Passport, take on Merchant BINGO, and keep your eyes peeled for Find the Bedazzled Cup. Complete the challenges, explore the merchants, and you might just walk away with prizes along with your caffeine fix.
With more participating brands and event details being revealed, you can keep up with the latest Whisk & Brew 2026: Full Lineup, Exclusive Drinks & Activities.
Beyond the drinks, you’ll also find lifestyle and food brands like Daily Dainty, Tutti Folio & Tutti Beady, Rebel Bakehouse, Crumb Studio MNL, and more. And while you’re exploring, make time for The Corner House’s own tenants, including Yardstick and A.M. Coffee & Roastery.
The venue itself is part of the appeal. With its aesthetic spaces and Instagram-worthy corners, The Corner House is the kind of place where “one quick photo” can easily turn into a full-blown shoot. Add pretty drinks, local finds, games, and your friends, and your camera roll is basically coming along for the ride.
Whether you’re a specialty coffee enthusiast, a matcha devotee, a serial café hopper, or simply looking for something fun to do in Manila this September, Whisk & Brew gives you plenty of reasons to come, and even more reasons to stay.
Come for the coffee. Stay for the matcha. Play for the prizes. Hunt for the Bedazzled Cup. And whatever you do, don’t miss the drinks you can only get here.
Because you can always have another coffee or matcha.
But you can’t always have the Whisk & Brew exclusive.
