Well, there’s nothing much to say here. I’ll let these photos do the talking..

This is the first stand alone store in Davao city.


The three other branches of Starbucks in Davao are located inside three malls namely SM Lanang Premier, SM City Ecoland and Abreeza Ayala Mall. This means that before you can get your favorite Starbucks drinks, you need to go inside the malls which will take so much time especially if you still need to park your car. However, with the 4th branch of Starbucks strategically placed at the heart of Davao city, everything is made easier. The F. Torres branch is definitely a perfect place for people who are always on the go.
Operating hours:

  • Monday to Thursday: 7AM to 1AM
  • Sunday: 7AM to 1AM
  • Friday to Saturday: 7AM to 2AM

This is the first Starbucks Coffee Forward branch in Mindanao.

The newest Starbucks store in Davao is actually the first Coffee Forward branch in Mindanao. A coffee forward branch is a premium-concept store which offers coffee extracted with Starbucks Reserve coffee beans brewed with diverse extraction devices. This simply means that customers can see live demonstration on how their cup is prepared by the baristas. 
You know, in order to fully understand and appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into a product, one must experience how it is made. This is exactly how one can truly experience the distinct characteristics of coffee. This is why F. Torres branch is going to be one of your favorite Starbucks store in Davao.
