Have you been searching for places to eat with a really relaxed ambiance , a place were you could glorify your meals more and at the same time your eyes being feasted with pleasing decors to keep your artistic side going? ,then you definitely have to visit Bag of Beans Twin Lakes , this is already their second branch and to make things better it is situated at the summer capital of the south which is Tagaytay city.
Bag of Beans Twin Lakes has a very different aesthetic display than the first one. Once you have entered the restaurant you will surely feel unreal , it looks just like a cut out from a lifestyle magazine. The shop has two dining floors which also have different concept, main floor's interior is purely white walls , glass windows over looking the breath taking landscape of Tagaytay plus the cool breeze (who needs an air-conditioning?) with accents of pastel colored decorative and wood works. Everything looks very timeless and making you wish it was your own vacation house.
Now you don't have to fly off to Seoul Korea just to dine and do a photo ops with their fancy themed coffee shops because we already have it.
The ground dining hall has more color splash and different kind of patterns. I'm not sure if they got the inspiration of the interior from Martha Stewart because that was the vibe I was getting from the aesthetics.

Aren't these Machuca tiles lovely, it makes the restaurant feel really homey.
Not only the interior is commendable but also their staffs service , very genuine they smile all through out your stay and will make you very comfortable , and what will complete your experience is definitely the food.
In every restaurant I visit, I always try their Hamburger and fries first to see how they prepare their food , because I have these previous experience with other restaurant that their Burger and fries being dry and cold but Bag of Beans did not disappoint me.
I also recommend their apple pie a cherry on top of their menu , it is one of the tastiest and creamiest pie I have tasted like how your grandma will make her pie.
Visiting Bag of Beans is definitely a go to for those who wants a little escape and break from the busy life in the metro. It is only 2 hours away, take a drive with your or friends and treat yourself, you deserve it .
