Seattle Manila Oriental Store & Taglish Halo Halo Boyz Cafe

Prices were fair, halo halo was on point and exactly what I was looking for.

Greeted as we walked in with a warm 'Kumuta Kayo' as we entered, and a kind farewell as we left.

We will probably return.

Only issue I had, which is a real quick fix: it is not super clear where to order halo halo as guests exit from the seating area and most staff looked busy. A large party leaving had created congestion and hid what would normally be easily noticed as a place where orders can be made.

In my confusion in the crowd, I asked a kid behind the counter if I can order halo halo. This kid rudely asked me if I can read the hand written sign that simply says "this is not where to order halo halo". This was not the helpful nudge I needed to get an order started. Maybe I was cranky, but, it was off putting and made me want to leave, and never come back. But I am sure that is a one time thing that won't happen again. He probably thought it was funny.

Delicious Halohalo. 👍

Nice. But prices are a little high....very nice people

Craving for Filipino Fare, Snacks and Desserts used to mean that you will either have to drive to Seattle & the Int'l District to get your fill on the authentic taste of home 🏡❤️ But not anymore! (East Side & Bellevue, still absent from the roster 😏)

But now, if you're in the South End, then you'd no longer need to go that far because the Seattle Manila Oriental Store has a lot of unique offerings!

Recently opened, they serve Halo Halo Dessert, Filipino Snacks, Asian Groceries and coming soon will be hot food. They are small mom and pop business owners and live in the community so the experience they provide is warm and friendly, while their prices are more than fair and affordable!

Check them out, right in the heart of downtown Auburn, and they might become your new and favorite Filipino snack, dessert & food joint! 🥳😋🍧🍦🍡🍟🎉
