Do you ever dream of a place that feels like a familiar old friend that always welcomes you but at the same time fills you with anticipation with each visit? A place that gives off vibes that are as hospitable as home without feeling ordinary is a tough balance to achieve but Oliver’s Coffee Bistro seems to have perfected it. This classy little café bistro right in the heart of Greenhills has been making a name for itself as the go-to for excellent coffee blends and elevated comfort food…as well as an extra feature that sets it apart from the usual Cafés. But before we dive into that perhaps we should ask: Who is Oliver?
Well, if Oliver was a person, he’d be your friendly neighborhood coffee guy. Someone always in the know when it comes to what’s good and what new & exciting. And as far as the menu goes, there’s always something good. “Elevated comfort” is how they describe what you find on the menu. From reliable café fare to match the dreamy coffee concoctions, to more filling choices, everything is familiar but never ordinary and always surprises with a fresh twist. Coffee blends headline the offerings with classic coffees, Aerocanos, and Oliver’s Signature Coffees as your options. As for food, the menu selections range from timeless café classics to heartier Bistro options like pastas, burgers and even signature steaks. But beyond the excellent food and drinks, Oliver’s has also built a reputation for itself for another interesting reason…
Let’s call their specialties “The 3C’s”: Coffee, Cuisine and Cars.
Right smack in the middle of the Bistro space is a massive rotating floor-display built to give guests enjoying the culinary offerings a visual feast as well. There’s a steady diet of of Ferraris, Porsches, BMWs, Lamborghinis and all manner of other 4-wheeled dreams that act as a rotating centerpiece for diners inside the Café…and the occasional 2-wheeled wonders sometimes makes the cut too. An automotive display of extraordinary cars that changes every 2-3 weeks is certainly something you don’t find in a typical café. Who would have thought great food and a feature car on a rotating display would be a perfect match? Well Oliver’s is quickly becoming a haven for afficionados of beautiful cars and for good reason given the caliber of automotive wonders you might see on the languidly rotating turntable. But you certainly don’t have to love cars to enjoy their coffee. Oliver’s steady traffic has proven that the seemingly unlikely combination of top cuisine, caffeine and cars is winning a steady following of fans that this imaginative concept offers.
Whether you come for the coffee or the cars or both. There’s no better way to awaken your inner dreamer than an afternoon spent sipping a great brew with a view.
