One of the things I miss the most about the Philippines is the food. When I went home for a brief vacation, we went to Baguio. One of the things we made time for is Choco-Late de Batirol. I love the garden setting and the ambiance. It's very quiet. When it comes to service, it was very quick. There are servers waiting by the entrance to make sure you are seated and helped. I ordered diang na bangus and champorado. What I loved the most about the champorado was how creamy it was. Also, it was not deathly sweet unlike other champorados I have had before. The next time my family and I are in Baguio again, we will make sure to visit here. It's a favorite!

The cafe is in some obscure corner of Camp John Hay but its quaintness and warm ambience and the promise of excellent tsokolate would make you want to linger and pick on your merienda cena to stretch the moment. I guess it is romantic, somewhat delightfully furtive and gives you a more refined experience of Baguio, wearied by traffic and pollution.

Great food, amazing crew, and dont the namesake drink Batirol. Gritty chocolate drink with rich color and flavor. Toilet system needs an upgrade. Men's can accommodate 2 stalls and 2 toilets and 1 to 2 sinks. Ventilation is in order as well as aromatics to make one feel better using the room.

Excellent traditional food, very reasonable prices, and fairly prompt service. Best meal/restaurant experience so far had in Baguio.

Looking for a cup of hot chocolate? You should try this place out. This place is known for having the best hot chocolate. I got to enjoy some on my visit to Baguio. Their hot chocolate is pretty strong and has a nutty taste since its made with peanuts. We also ended up ordering some food while we were here. I got the boneless daing na bangus with eggs and rice. One of my favorite dishes and it was delicious.

Situated inside the CJH which gives a nice and homey feel as the place is surrounded by various plants. We ordered their signature traditional choco as recommended by most and paired with suman sa lihiya. I can only comment on what we ordered as delectable as it can be. But my only comment is that you need to wait for sometime to be attended by the staffs. I mean to follow up with them every now and then. But over all experience, it's worth a try. Hoping that they will be more attentive by that time.

Just wow. This place is about 30 minutes away from the city proper and at some point, when you get…read moreclose, the road starts to get steeper so you'll be needing some driving skillz. Apart from the drive here, everything is just a breeze. The view is magnificent. You'll be seeing a carpet of clouds covering the city and the mountain ranges too. You need to see it for yourself. We also ate dinner here and it was amazing. Their food wasn't too expensive but it was really food. The non magic sarap kind of tasty was there. They also have small rooms but we stayed in their transient house that was good for about 10-15 people. There were only six of us but the rent was still really cheap. Php 5,000.00 a night, complete with a kitchen, fridge, clean bathrooms, comfy beds, a nice view from the terrace, and a wonderful fire place. Like wow, i just wanted to hug the owner for making this place awesome for everyone. Great view, good food, and cozy accommodations.

Okay this place is just incredible. The food was alright nothing special thats why I rated it 4…read morestars. It's a long way ride to the top. First of all, they don't let tourists in anymore. If you're planning to visit here, you need to contact them, they have phone numbers available on their facebook profile. They will advise you to go up around 5 or 6am before the DENR people will be at the checkpoint. Again, coordinate with them before planning to go to the top, I have seen a lot of people complain about not getting through the checkpoint.

Hill Station at  Casa Vallejo - Salmon and Basil pesto pasta was served very well.  The warm garlic bread was cruchy on the outside and soft on the inside,  perfect.

We came as a large group and were seated relatively quick and the service was really lovely. The menu had a lot of options between Filipino and other cultures and some fusion. I opted for a soup and a salad just because I was feeling a little full this night and the pumpkin soup was very good. The Caesar salad was super authentic. You could taste the anchovies in the dressing, it was just very refreshing and super fresh! The interior of the restaurant is beautiful. I love the decor and that the building had a vintage charm about it, but felt clean as well. I would definitely come back for a special occasion if I was in the area, especially a date.

Arrived for a late dinner, some of the menu items were not available…read more We were asked to order desserts with our meal since the kitchen would be closing soon. The restaurant is elegantly decorated for a warm ambiance. The menu is simple and fairly short (two pages). The wine list is well selected and varied. Service was pleasant and attentive, our food arrived promptly. Dishes were prepared properly and delicious. The dinner was excellent, the only element that I would improved would be freshly baked bread and butter (we were served cold cubes of bread, with olive oil and dry seasoning).

As we rambled down the streets of Baguio, one of the places that was highly recommended was Café by…read morethe Ruins. The eclectic menu was highly satisfying and we gorged on so many dishes. It is an iconic café, restaurant and bakery in Baguio that's long been beloved by both locals and visitors. The ambience has a rustic, artsy vibe and has played an important role in the city's cultural and culinary scene. It's called Café by the Ruins quite literally because it was built beside, and partly within, the ruins of a war-damaged building in downtown Baguio. After World War II, much of Baguio was destroyed during the battle to retake the city. This is why the café became a natural home for artists, writers, activists and thinkers, the space itself tells a story of survival and reinvention.

I thought that I wrote a review for this place years ago. I have been going here for about 30…read moreyears. It is an amazing restaurant with a historical location. All this time I thought the restaurant was located on Chuntug. During my younger days, Baguio was known for the clubs and casinos at a couple of the hotels. Things changed after a major earthquake, and I guess the name of the street for the Cafe By The Ruins also changed to Shuntug. I love all the architectural changes that the restaurant has made after the horrible fire they had. Of course the restaurant would have a wonderful ambiance, since the co-founders were artists and creative minded individuals. This is a location where memories are created with an unforgettable dining experience. They proudly served farm-to-table food before the social movement of using local ingredients in food preparation. In fact, the menu changes due to the seasonal fruits and vegetables. I encourage you to ask your server for their recommendations. They will know what's currently popular, and it is a great way to discover new items you might not have considered otherwise. I say that only because I would not have tried the duck pinikpikan, since I remembered how chicken pinikpikan was made. I'm glad we ordered it, because it was the perfect match with the rice that was served with it. The black ink pasta with fish rose cream sauce and crispy tapa are dishes that I'll be ordering again. I also asked what the server recommended for a dessert, and I'm hoping that they'll always have the strawberry pavlova on their menu. I also enjoyed Christine's Crepe. The Ice Ruins Coffee was a wonderful beverage with my desserts. This is a restaurant that I always go to whenever I go to Baguio.

Saw this restaurant on the main road going back to Manila. Our senior citizens in our group were…read morehungry. It's seemed to be a Filipino restaurant from outside and was rightfully so. The restaurant is huge, great for groups and more native style than modern. Place is clean. I saw a ratatouille mouse again going outside from inside but it's an outdoor restaurant so what do you expect?! Should I be worried? We were the first to eat there for lunch as we got there once it opened. We were well attended. This is what we ordered: Complimentary- Lomi soup that is like a hot and sour soup without the sour or hot! Just looks like it. It lacked a little salt. Pakbet - pretty good Kare kare - lacked peanut butter so it was less salty. Lechon kawali - very good Liang - it lacked taro leaves and had more huge slices of ginger instead. I actually thought the ginger was meat cuz it was huge pieces! Fresh Coconut - lots of juice inside and they opened it to eat the coconut meat Four season in a pitcher Manga juice in a can There was nothing special about this place or food. Decent prices.I am always in search of an authentic Filipino restaurant but this was not my fave; good enough; 2.5 stars. [113/100]

The place was understaffed...and this was the beginning of so many issues with the place…read more At the door (after a walk up a long ramp), no one was there to greet you or seat you. We had to meander inside and find a place that suited our numbers. Minus 1... Taking our order took forever. And when a service staff finally appeared and started listing our order, he disappeared (we found him at another table taking orders) What was that all about? The food...meh! Nothing special. Even the presentation was just super-meh! You have been warned. Please...take you tummy somewhere else...
