Looking for a coffee shop in the metro for your next city ride? LABL Café offers a pit stop for riders to fuel up with coffee and shop for lifestyle gear and accessories all in one place.
LABL is a motorcycle-themed lifestyle hub and cafe along Commonwealth Avenue in Fairview. We came across this space during the Royal Enfield unveils Himalayan 450 Mana Black Edition at QC branch launch in Quezon City earlier this year and thought it deserved a feature of its own.
Fairview isn’t exactly a top-of-the-mind destination for coffee rides, but it’s one of the areas within the metro that feels a fair distance away. Just ask anyone coming from the central and southern parts of the city, like Makati or Alabang. Even those from central parts of Quezon City consider Fairview to be on the far side of town, which requires going out of the typical city commute routes.

LABL Café offers a possible gateway for longer rides heading north. However, riders who live in Fairview, Novaliches, or the northern parts of Quezon City and want to save on fuel might find this cafe to be an accessible hangout without having to ride too far or drive through more congested areas of the metro.
LABL, which stands for ‘Living A Balanced Life,’ was established in 2020 and has evolved into a hybrid lifestyle hub that blends coffee culture, streetwear, and motorcycle passion into one experience.
With its neo-retro aesthetic, curated motorcycles, and laid-back atmosphere, the establishment is a destination that will naturally draw in the riding community. As stated on its website, the cafe began with a simple idea: “Create a space where creativity flows as freely as the coffee.”
Their menu includes all sorts of “caffeine fuel,” starting from Enduro Espresso (P100), Pit Stop Americano (P160), Low Ride Latte (P180), Ignition Cappucino (P180), Highside Hazelnut (P200), RPM Caramel Macchiato (P200), Throttle Mocha (P200), and Torque White Choco (P200), which come in hot, iced, and frappe versions. They also serve specialties like Spanish Latte and Vietnamese coffee. Non-coffee options include matcha, hot chocolate, chocolate de batirol, fruit shakes, and sodas. You can pick from a variety of pastries displayed with tiny motorcycle models.
For heavier meals, you can try their signature Angus Beef Burger on black charcoal buns, Pipe Shrimp Aligue Pasta, Muffler Truffle Cream Pasta, or all-day breakfast meals. Main entree favorites include the Herbed Chop, Crispy Ilocos Bagnet, and Zesty Chicken.
What sets LABL Café apart from other cafes is how it offers more than just food and drinks. The space doubles as the flagship store for the LABL streetwear brand, featuring a range of apparel designed with riders in mind.
In between bites and sips, you can browse around the cafe/shop to find sporty jerseys, motorcycle jackets, riding shoes, gloves, caps, and other accessories. Check out their full range of apparel online here.
The cafe also offers a “motorcycle cinema” concept. Screens within the space occasionally showcase motorcycle-related films and visuals, to level up the typical tambay sessions. You can also spot some cinematic motorcycle-themed photos adorning the walls, adding to the visual appeal of the place.
You can tell that LABL Café is a rider-friendly hangout. Scroll through its online pages, and you’ll find snapshots of bike club meetups, casual group rides, tattoo pop-ups, and live music events. It offers a casual hangout where riders can gear up or slow down over coffee.
With its mix of industrial textures, motorcycle-themed displays, and open layout next to the Royal Enfield service shop, the cafe invites guests to linger. It’s the type of space suitable for ride events and motorcycle brand launches.
Whether you’re a solo rider in need of a quick coffee break or looking for a new spot to catch up with friends over weekend rides, LABL Café offers a rider-friendly hangout to inject fun and adventure between the daily grind or busy workweek.
