Over at Gate 6 Garden (1417 Webster St.), they’re creating a space where Southeast Asian coffee culture meets the warmth of Filipino hospitality. Their menu elevates traditional flavors with childhood ingredients, crafting a unique fusion that tells a story of community and shared joy. While renovations are still in progress, you can enjoy their offerings via curbside pickup, UberEats, delivery, or catering. Follow their updates on Instagram: @gate6garden.
