Madge Café
La Paz Public Market, La Paz, Iloilo City
Madge Café has been serving Ilonggos with coffee brewed the traditional way and using only locally grown coffee beans. If you want to experience authentic Ilonggo coffee culture, you should visit Madge Cafe located inside the La Paz Public Market. Just ask around the market where Madge Cafe is located. We recommend the strong blend with milk. Don't forget to order ibos (suman) with your coffee.
Madge Cafe will finally branch out. They are set to open a branch at Atria Park District in Mandurriao, Iloilo City.
