Less & More Coffee

Less & More Coffee is a one-of-a-kind coffee shop located in the heart of downtown. What makes this place so special is its unique location - it used to be an old MAX stop that has been transformed into a cozy and inviting space for coffee lovers. The shop offers a variety of coffee and tea drinks, including my personal favorite: ube latte. The drink is made with ube, a purple yam commonly used in Filipino desserts, and is a sweet and creamy treat that's perfect for any time of day (it can be made vegan). In addition to the ube latte, Less & More Coffee also serves other international-inspired coffee and tea drinks. The shop's welcoming atmosphere and creative menu make it a must-visit destination for anyone looking for a unique and memorable coffee experience.
