I was pleasantly surprised by how welcoming the employees were when we entered the café. The place is very cozy, and the interior design is quite unique. It’s probably one of the best-looking cafés here in Dagupan. I absolutely loved their Japanese curry—the tenderness of the pork was truly impressive.

Absolutely love this place! The food is fantastic, my favorites are the Thai Pork Basil, Honey Walnut Shrimp, and Blue52 Cookie. Their coffee is my go-to place to buy coffee now, and their Bubbly Brew is worth a shot if you're feeling adventurous. Plus, it's a great spot to get some work done. Highly recommend!

Top class service! Very kind staff, amazing owner. The concept of the Cafe is very unique. The drinks are fantastic. Ambience and atmosphere is amazing. They have a plethora of books and board games to hangout with friends. They live up to the name of 'Your Neighbourhood Cafe'.

It was my first time visiting this cafe, and it was recommended by my sister. The ambiance is really nice—perfect if you're looking for a chill and relaxing spot. I highly recommend this place. The service was excellent, and the staff were very welcoming, which I really appreciated the most. The food and drinks were both great, although the curry is kinda bland for my tastebuds. I love the potatoes tho (10/10). Overall, I had a wonderful time on this spontaneous date with my sister. They also offer a variety of card games to play, which added to the fun!

Like the place, it's a great place to go with your friends or to relax, play games and gossip. I would recommend the cafe to improve on their drinks, I tried hazelnut & two other drinks... For the coffee based drinks I'd recommend them to improve on the taste of coffee, it tastes quite bland... But one thing that is great is that the sugar level is really low, the other places I've tried even with 25% sugar level their drinks still taste too sweet. So yeah the place is great, would recommend them to improve on their drinks. Would lastly say this was according to my pov, different people have different taste so you won't know until you visit there what you like and not, would recommend to go and visit if you stay nearby and see for yourself what you like!

During my last trip to the Philippines I visited Dagupan City with my father-in-law and came across Blue 52 Cafe. The outside of the cafe looked really nice and appealing to me so I wanted to check it out, plus I needed some caffeine. Inside the cafe was just as appealing as the outside of the building. It was bright inside with mostly white walls and blue color accent all around, which perfectly matches the name of the cafe. The ambiance was nice and felt like you could just chill here while drinking your coffee and eating some food. They even had a bookshelf full of board games to keep you entertained. I ordered an iced matcha latte and got a mocha latte for my FIL. Their coffees were good and comparable to any cafes in the States. We also ordered the Thai Basil Pork to share as a snack. The portion size was enough for 2 people, and was surprisingly good for a cafe. You won't find rice dishes at Starbucks so Blue 52 Cafe gets two thumbs up from me for having these food options. Overall, I really liked my experience at Blue 52 Cafe. Service was great. Staff were friendly and our coffee and food were on point. If you're ever in Dagupan City, I would highly recommend checking out Blue 52 Cafe for your caffeine fix and a tasty light meal.
