THE ROYAL CHEF: FROG Kaffee – How coffee should be

Celebrating 365 days of exceptional cups of coffee, FROG Kaffee has been one of the biggest breakthroughs in the Davao food scene. What begun as an idea has been converted into the city’s favourite coffee place that singlehandedly introduced our palates to how a cup of coffee should taste.

In the past year, FROG Kaffee has grown into a well rounded gastro dining place that serves more than just coffee. Adding to their plate are a selection of global favourites not readily available in other dining places in the city. From savoury to sweet treats, FROG Kaffee has your every cravings covered.

FROG Kaffee is dedicated to remain as Davao’s #1 Coffee Shop.  Hence, to enjoy a cup of coffee seriously while having fun exudes of a great commitment to never stop experimenting and share to the world the magnificence of coffee. And this is their continued mantra.

Yes, coffee is their main pillar. Not just coffee but globally inspired coffee recipes created with international standards and fine tuned to suit every customer needs. With their extensive and in-depth knowledge on coffee and coffee making, every cup is a result of skilled techniques and in-house roasted coffee beans unlike anywhere else. Though still considered unknown in Davao, FROG Kaffee has generously taught us the basics of coffee, coffee making and how to enjoy every cup.

On that note, aside from their homey interiors, delectable coffee and delicious dishes, FROG Kaffe further aims to re-educate the public in supporting local Mt. Apo coffee farmers and their products. In fact, they are already using their produce and has incorporated such to their menu. This, according to Markus Ableitinger and Gina Esperanza Ellorango is an undertaking that they are personally proud of. Presently, one of the farmers is recognized nationally and will soon be exporting coffee beans outside the country.

Novice to be considered, but FROG Kaffee has won the largest latte art competition in Davao. In fact, they had 3 barista/staff who then won the top major prizes — 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Not only is this a big marketing push for the cafe in general but more so, an achievement and testimony for their detailed quality of work and training for their staff.

FROG Kaffee is also a foodie place with its ever evolving menu of elevated global gourmet dishes that complements their detailed offering of coffee. The merging of flavours and focus on details gives it its distinct and special taste. Despite the extravagance, you’d find that everything on their menu is affordable and budget-friendly.

With their relaxing interiors, you’d surely love to explore the place. Opening its 2nd floor to the public, groove to live acoustic jams whilst you enjoy a cup of coffee. Their open lounge, compared to the more formal dining space below, is more relaxed and perfect for exclusive parties or get togethers. The lounge is decked with comfortable sitting to make your stay even more memorable. *Schedule for live acoustic bands is available on their official facebook page.

As FROG Kaffee moves forward, they want to give back to community by engaging with them online. Through an array of interactive games, customers get a chance to win prizes that includes loyalty points for their Loyalty Cards. Aside from that, they are launching a monthly game, Learn, Compete & Win where customers are selected to brew their coffee in-house and judged by a small jury. Great prizes await the winners.

Frog Kaffee is located at Prime Square, F. Torres Street, Davao City and is open Mondays to Thursday from 9am to 12:30am, Fridays to Saturdays from 9am to 1am, and Sundays from 10am to 12am.
