🚨Here comes the drop!!!🚨
- pre order your breads through the link in our bio -

In an attempt to further raise funds for our cafe, we will be dropping a few baked goods sales throughout the month! We hit a few hiccups and had some emergencies pop up these past couple of months, so we would greatly appreciate your love and support! These breads will be sold at our cafe once we open, so come give them a try!

Pandesal - soft and fluffy Filipino bread; enjoyed best toasted with your favorite spread!

Spanish Bread - Filipino breakfast favorite; fluffy, crumbly bread filled with sweet, brown sugar butter (coffee’s best friend)

Pan De Coco - Filipino milk bread filled with toasted, nutty, shredded coconut

Ube Ensaymada - though a little untraditional, this is our Ube twist on a panaderia favorite; soft butter dough topped with Ube Halaya and toasted coconut flakes

Hey, long time no see! Sorry we’ve been so quiet 😵‍💫 It has been quite a whirlwind of a couple months but slowly, we’ve been piecing it all together. Don’t want to spoil too much, but hoping to share some tiny updates and glimpses of the space that is working so hard to pull together! We’ll talk soon, everyone ❤️ Thank you for your patience 🫶

“Why Ctrl Alt Refresh?”
Not going to lie, we used ChatGPT to help build our name LOL.
We were pretty stuck since we wanted a simple yet straight-to-the-point kind of name… but we kept drawing blanks. I’m pretty sure I just asked ChatGPT, “what are good PC cafe names?” (ChatGPT gave a BUNCH - technology is scary). We ended up combining two separate ideas that formed Ctrl Alt Refresh. The more we sat on the name, the more we became inspired by it. I was randomly sketching logo ideas and my first draft was actually the one Andrew and I agreed upon. We knew we needed some help getting it to the best that it could be, so I hit up an old friend. Summer Lacuin (.designs on Instagram!) provided us with the cleaner, more professional logo design and we couldn’t have been more grateful! We felt our identity was coming to life and the beginning steps were being made.
More origin stories coming soon 😈 for now, stay tuned ❤️

MEET THE OWNERS: Regina Lustre & Andrew Li
-
Through their combined passions for cooking and gaming, Regina and Andrew birthed the idea of Ctrl Alt Refresh, a PC Cafe and Eatery. Inspired by their trips to PC방s in Korea, they hope to build a communal space for people to enjoy games/movies/events/etc. while eating delicious and comforting food.

They're so excited to bring this space to life and to meet and create a new community!
