Calendar of coffee shop events in Marikina for October 2026
Layman's opens October with what it calls an acoustic, mellow gig night for the yearners, featuring @bandastellarph with an open mic between sets. Booths run alongside it: a photobooth, a flower pop-up, a tattoo pop-up and a rack of thrift finds.
Admission not announced — check with the shop before you go.
From Instagram post (Layman's Cafe on Instagram) — see the original. Last checked .Announced 26 September 2026 as Friday, October 2, 2:00 PM onwards, at Layman's Cafe, San Roque. The 11pm close is from the shop's follow-up post of 29 September (instagram.com/p/Dd3hkWEiW5B/), which gives "2pm to 11pm" and names it yearner's night. No entrance fee was printed in either post, so none is claimed.
Crew Kaffee's open mic returns after its last session, with performers messaging the shop's page to get on the line-up. Its post for the previous session said the mic is open to acoustic artists, spoken-word poets and stand-up comedians, with the shop handling the setup.

A weekend pop-up at the Katipunan branch of Marikina Heights' Resonate Coffee, with six guest brands and makers setting up in the shop, among them a tattoo artist offering flash designs at a discount on the Saturday. Not in Marikina, but it is a Marikina shop's event and a short trip from the city.

Marikina Weekend Market
· 12:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Despensa, La Arcada Bldg. — 2/F La Arcada Bldg., Marikina City
A two-day market at the event space Despensa with matcha, coffee, pastries, desserts and local brands across eleven merchants, plus two photobooths. The Retreat Coffee Lounge is among them, bringing its drinks menu for its first pop-up outside its own shop.
Free entry. Free entrance, with parking available in the building.
From Instagram post (Despensa on Instagram) — see the original. Last checked .Published 1 October 2026 with the dates, 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM, the merchant list, free entrance and parking. This post calls it the Marikina Weekend Bazaar; the organiser's other posts call it the Marikina Weekend Market, which is used here. An earlier save-the-date on the same account gave an 11:00 AM opening and the 2/F floor; every later post says 12:00 PM. The Retreat Coffee Lounge's own post confirms it is taking part and places La Arcada on Gil Fernando Avenue. Despensa is an event space, not a shop in the directory, so there is no shop link or barangay.
