BGC Bonifacio Global City will always be my first choice whenever I visit Manila, and Bonifacio High Street is most defintely a highlight. This reminds me of Las Ramblas in Barcelona, where wide pedestrian walkways/parks are between several retail. service and restaurants, and where people can stop and rest at benches, stairs/tables right at the center. There is literally a chain, or blocks fn these walkway/parks so we can walk through one, cross a street, the enter another. It's very family oriented. We saw several families playing in the park. It's also very pet-oriented where several people were walking (or carrying) their dogs. It's one big social. The choices of dining are endless, and one can take-out fast food, or stop and dine inside a restaurant. For US residents, it's almost like being in the USA because of the amazing number of US-based restaurants. Best of all, as a female senior citizen I felt perfectly safe walking by myself. read more

This place is so overhyped lol. Wasn't really amazed since I've already been to other Asian countries with MUCH huger shopping districts and more developed infrastructure. Just a hype spot that's oversaturated by people obsessed with spamming their social media taking posing photos in this place. People here are not friendly, wouldn't recommend for families. read more

In my past trips to the Philippines we have been staying in the city of dreams area not far from the airport. Although the city of dreams complex is super nice and it contains 5 star hotels such as the Hyatt. The surrounding area is unfortunately, not so desirable. But that is not the case where I'm staying over here at the Shangri-la hotel at the Park in the BGC area. This area is becoming very well developed and they have an awesome walking area right next to the hotel. It took me awhile to walk the area because there is so much to see and do. Thus it was very fun to get out to see the area. So if you want to have stylish options this is a great place to be, as there are shopping complexes, nice eateries, and places that you can just sit down to have a quiet conversation with somebody. It is by far the most happening and clean/modern area that i have seen in Manila (excluding the mall of Asia area). So when in town, you must come down here to check out this in person in the evening and ichristmas because for all of these daysgonif you can come here during the holidays, they go all out and this area is beautiful at night! read more

High street is more than just an outdoor Mall. I actually rarely shop there and I rarely see people in the stores however I do see a lot of people around. It's a great place to hang out, have a picnic, spend time with your doggies, or just people watch. There's great foods at the end of high street though. You got Japanese, Thai, Korean, NY pizza, and more! It seems like there's always a new event every month too. They have different festivals throughout the year celebrating different countries, holidays, or the release of new movies. Never a dull moment at high street read more

While technically a shopping area, with lots of premium retail stores, for me High Street is more of a place to meet friends and hang out. Sure, I like browsing the shops, and I've bought a few books at Fully Booked in the past, but most of the time I'm here, I'm eating with friends and family. (Ok so maybe I just like pigging out.) I find High Street to be a convenient meeting place for people who come from the northern and southern areas of Metro Manila - whenever the barkada wants to meet up, if it isn't at a friend's place somewhere in BGC, it would be here. It's a good mid point for people from QC and Parañaque. Having lots of options on where to go also helps. I remember we once had dinner in a Korean restaurant, moved to Slice because some of our (very) late comers still hadn't eaten, moved to Coffee Bean after that. Went for dessert / ice cream at Mad Marks. And somehow still ended up in Italianni's because someone suddenly craved for truffle fries. Of course we justified all that eating by saying we burned so much calories by walking around. I used to come here just to go to Fully Booked, but with new food places opening up, at least 7 coffee shops (I probably even missed some), lots of pets to look at on weekends, 2 gyms, there's a lot more to do here now. Because I work odd hours, I find that walking around here in the morning is actually pretty peaceful. I sit in a coffee shop and watch folks rushing to wherever they need to go or take a stroll in the morning sun with an iced tea or iced latte in hand. It's very different from the peak hour madness of High Street that also has its own charm- especially when folks bring their pets with them. My only beef with High Street would be the parking rates or even lack of adequate parking. I've seen more parking areas opening up, and I'm very glad for those, but wow parking rates here may get expensive, especially if you park along Lanes P or O. But that aside, I'm happy I love somewhat nearby, and will definitely keep coming back! read more

Bonifacio High Street - Once in a while, there are a couple of events along High Street. Here's Nessie during the Great British Festival (weekend of 2/26/2016) - Shopping Centers Near Me - Taguig, NCR

This isn't your usual mall here in the Philippines. It goes away from the norm of malls: Being indoors and having a lot of floors. People will feel a bit more free and outdoors in this mall. It's basically just a strip. One strip of stores and the right, and another one on the left. There's food, clothing, outdoors stuff, books, and probably most of the stores you find in the usual indoor malls. This is really good for people who like to walk while feeling the natural breeze at night. The foliage is also very pleasing to the eyes. It almost seems like a park was built in between the two strips. There's some grass where you can have a picnic and play or maybe walk your dog. It's really a different mall experience for people who are used to the huge indoor malls. The design of this mall also jives with the idea of BGC. It's easily accessible and the system was well thought of. Personally, I'd take out someone here and I'd offer a nice evening walk. read more

Every time I would go to High Street before, I would get dropped off at Fully Booked and I wouldn't bother checking out the entire High Street. After spending four years of college in Makati and getting bored with the malls and even the parks there, my friends and I began our love affair with High Street. We'd hop on the BGC bus in Makati and get off at High Street. We'd spend hours observing the people here, taking pictures and trying the different coffee shops. The main reason I like this place is because I don't have to worry that a guard or police will tell me to stop taking pictures. In fact, they encourage photographers to take lots of pictures. Another reason I like coming here is because it's relatively safe. I mean, don't leave you bag ready to be stolen, but generally speaking, it's a pretty safe place for kids to play, for grandmas and grandpas to take a stroll and for absent minded people like me who accidentally leave cameras on benches. The food in this place is good, exciting and new. There are lots of clubs and bars if you're into that sort of thing. I have yet to find a shop that sells cigarettes here though. And there are no convenience stores in the immediate are. Be sure to go to this place with enough money because you'll sure be tempted to buy something and most of their items including food are pricey. read more

This place is something like a mini Singapore in Taguig. This place is really clean, organize, mix of nature and shopping malls. It's quite expensive but you can buy great stuffs when on sale! Restaurants are everywhere too! A lot of foreigner stays here, specially those unit owner. What I like about here is that the place is very convenient. Walking distance from SM Aura and Ayala Malls Market Market. read more

We have been looking for a place to move in to for quite some time now and one of our choices was BGC... until we realized 'dear God, we cannot afford this'. I just pictured myself going to High Street and I already saw how I am buried in debt in the future. Don't get me wrong, High Street is one of the few places I love to visit whenever I am in BGC but dang it's expensive. With boutiques and restaurants lining the area, you could easily lose 1,500 pesos in one stroll. But if you want to control the need to splurge, High Street has manicured gardens and pretty little sculpture for you to enjoy where you can see lots of dogs playing around. It's a great place to lounge around or maybe have a picnic. read more

Bonifacio High Street is actually an open-air mall, with lots of stores and restaurants. I consider it one of my favourite places here in Manila. I love going there during the weekends with my family to shop, to have lunch or just to relax. In my opinion, it's a perfect choice specially for those who have kids, since there's a lot of space for them to run and play safely. Children love the water plaza and the interactive playgrounds spread all over the high street! It's so nice to see them having fun with water on summer days! :) Another great thing about Bonifacio High Street is that it's totally pedestrian friendly. I mean: vehicles are not allowed on the main avenue, where the stores and restaurants are. Isn't it great? The place is also a stage for many great events, like international food festivals, concerts and so on. The feeling I have is that there's always something interesting going on at the High Street. That's why I highly recommend going there specially on a friday night or during the weekend. Great time guaranteed. read more

The best part of Bonifacio High Street to me? The number of cute dogs getting walked around in the area!!! I just love it when shopping centres welcome pets so that you can shop, walk your pet and stop for a nice drink at a cafe on the same street! Just amazing! read more

High Street is situated strategically in the middle of Bonifacio Global City; two major malls and a couple of pretty little parks are just a short stroll away. There are lots of great shops and restaurants on either side of the strip, and in the middle there's grass, fountains, and art installations that double as a playground for kids. Aside from being child friendly, High Street is always full of pets. I ADORE animals and it's always a good day when I see a ton of cute dogs walking around and shopping with their humans. I highly recommend this for barkada hang outs and dates, if your idea of a good time is walking, talking, [window] shopping, and dining at a nice restaurant after all the fun. It's easily one of the most gorgeous places in Metro Manila, and therefore one of my favorites. How I wish all of the city looked like High Street. read more

What I love about High Street is that there's almost always something going on here, so it's always a delight to visit and find out what the place has in store for you. My favorite is when they have dog shows, wherein dogs act like runway models and just show off how cute and adorable they are. Sometimes, there are even obstacle courses for the dogs to get through, and they just look so huggable as they run through hoops or deal with a particularly troublesome challenge. Someday, I'm gonna take my dog here as well so she can enjoy High Street with me. She deserves a day out. read more

Probably the best open-air shopping center in Manila is Bonifacio High Street in Taguig City. A kilometer-long expanse, Bonifacio High Street is home to numerous fashion and clothing shops, lifestyle stores for the sporty and outdoorsy types, restaurants, hobby and pet shops, and so much more. In the middle of the kilometer long stretch sits garden islands peppered with art sculptures that kids and even adults can interact with. Since the area is an outdoor open space, dog-owners love to bring their furry little friends for a walk here. Whenever I visit High Street, there are always more than ten people walking their dogs at any given time. Parents also love to bring their kids here since they can go crazy and run around the garden areas to their heart's content. All in all, Bonifacio High Street is a great place for the whole family - somewhere that Dad, Mom, Sis, Bro and little Bow Wow will surely love. read more

My main thought when strolling along High Street is, "I can't afford any of these shiz." And it's true, but that's not the point of High Street, is it? Well, no. Let me explain. A city's High Street, no matter where you are, is where the luxury brands are. It's meant to be expensive. It's meant to be a bane to every boyfriend and husband. In Prague, their High Street is colloquially known as the Husband's Sadness. What I like about the Bonifacio High Street is that that isn't the focus. Sure, there are a lot of expensive stores. But at its heart, the thoroughfare is one long, green, and breezy park. The fact that there are always adorable dogs here is just icing on the cake. read more

I know Bonifacio High Street like the back of my hand. It' only a jeep ride away from my place, and I love going there when I've got nothing to do, even if my wallet's completely empty. I know it has this reputation as being a place full of expensive things, but you can totally enjoy High Street without having to blow all your cash on expensive cafes restaurants! Just walking through it is a pleasant experience, you get to see so many cute dogs and the fresh air is really nice. During hot days there are sprays every few feets that spray cool water mist so that nobody overheats and dies while shopping, and plus its home to the a giant Fully Booked building, where you can go and plop your ass down on a chair and read for hours and leave without spending a single penny. There's also nothing more pleasurable than hanging out with an equally broke friend and buying food at Mcdonald's Market! Market! and heading over to High Street just to sit on the grass and chat. High Street is one of my favorite places to go, and for good reason: it's beautiful, there are a lot of art installations and nice things to see and a lot of events going on; there are a lot of things to do, from browsing the shops to just walking around and enjoying the sights; and for people who live in Paranaque like me, it's near! A really, really great place to hang out and have fun. read more

A mid-upscale outdoor mall right smack in the middle of BGC. A central place for locals to go shopping, eating in fine dining restaurants and a couple of outdoor tracks close by for those with active lifestyle. A good quiet place to be outside the hustle and bustle streets of Manila. Highly recommended. read more

High Street is certainly a unique "mall" because everything here is open-air. Which is both good and bad. Good: 1. Interesting and new experience, no other mall in Manila like it. 2. Great for photos!!! High Street has a middle area with grass, installations, and sometimes a venue for cool and hip events which is definitely a bonus. This place is great for photo ops with the barkada or a venue for your latest profile picture! 3. Relaxed and home-y. The vibe at High Street is super relaxed because you feel like your in a giant backyard that just happens to have stores and restaurants around it. 4. Mall and park in one. You can have the option to not even visit any of the shops and restaurants but rather just chill with your friends in the grassy areas, play with your kids, have a picnic, etc. Go fro it! 5. Exercise! More walking in this place so you can reach the store of resto you're looking for. No escalators or elevators here, folks. Bad: 1. Weather dependent. If it's too hot out expect to sweat unless you spend the whole time inside a shop or restaurant. If it's raining expect to get wet even with an umbrella handy because of the wind. Basically be prepared to face any possible weather when you go to High Street because the weather in Manila is definitely unpredictable at times. 2. Not PWD, injury, sickly, or "I get tired easily" friendly. Because of all the walking involved to get from place to place make sure you're up for it. read more

So many things to be said about this place. I spent 5 years working in an office with Bonifacio High Street as its backdrop and I've witnessed how it transformed from a quiet space to a sprawling avenue filled with art, dogs and people of the most interesting kind. The restaurants and the shops here are all spoken for. We all know that they are nice blah, blah, high-end etc. etc. but for me the best part about Bonifacio High Street is seeing different kinds of people sitting on the grass talking, eating having fun. It's what city people badly need and this mall was able to give it to them. For that alone, I give this place 5 stars just because it cares enough to reserve some green spaces for people who just want to take off their shoes and lie on the grass. read more

I remember when Bonifacio High Street first came to town. There was so much anticipation as back then, there really wasn't all that much to do in the Fort area save for checking out the military bases or enjoying the Eurostar carnival on some months. But then Bonifacio High Street enters the picture and all of a sudden, you know that the game has changed. There's Serendra, the more high-end bit of BHS filled with upscale restaurants and a few stores, and then there's High Street itself where the style is reminiscent of outdoor shopping complexes in the U.S. It's classy as hell and there are boutiques and restaurants to choose from that range in variety and style. Dogs are welcome. read more

What a nice place to hang out. The place is perfectly good. We're definitely go back there on the next pay day
