In her invite, she discussed that proper protocols should still be observed for the safety of everyone.

“Come and visit (while observing proper protocols)!!! We missed serving you so please drop by and try your favorites again! We're located at the Foodcourt of SM Megamall, Bldg A! SEE YOU!!?”

Bea's coffee business started in 2019 in the mall found in Mandaluyong City. In a feature written by GMANetwork.com in 2019, Bea revealed that her coffee shop is her first venture as a celebrity entrepreneur.

She said, “The journey of setting up a business like this is not a joke.

“I wanted to be super hands-on and do everything, maybe that's why I'm this stressed."

Bea admitted that she felt exhausted when she started her business.

“It was physically, financially, mentally, spiritually and emotionally exhausting.”

When the pandemic hit the country, Bea's business was forced to take a pause and abide by the safety protocols.

Before her reopening on February 2021, Bea posted that she visited Mix & Brew last October 2020 to check if they are ready to reopen to the public.

She said, "Went to the store last week. Missing you so much, @mixandbrewcoffee.ph! We miss our dear customers too! We will come back soon and we'll make sure to follow protocols for our safety."
