If you go to Baguio without eating here you haven’t been to Baguio at all. This cafe is notorious for it’s organic, locally-sourced ingredients, delicious meals, and in-house brew. This particular branch is a bit more modern than their main branch but it still has a homey vibe--with plants and artsy details on the walls and ceilings.

Cafe Sabel is the in-house cafe of BenCab Museum so inevitably, the place is Instagrammable. Up against the walls are Ben Cabrera’s posters, there’s a small aquarium in one corner, hardwood tables, and chairs painted in Primary colors. On the ceiling there are wire sculptures and other knick knacks that are sure to make you take out your camera and shoot. The food’s good too, by the way. We recommend their Camote Fries, Homemade Longganisa rice meal, and pasta.

Glenn 50s Diner is a diner that hinges on iconic American memorabilia. Posters are plastered on the wall, there’s a red buggy, and even a jukebox. The pastel colors resemble the interior of an old American skate house while neon lights add a party vibe to the room. It feels like you’re in a hip American movie!

Calle Uno Food Hub has earned its title as “Baguio’s First Food Truck Park”. It puts a unique twist to food trucks by using old Volkswagen beetles that are definitely #instagrammable. There are seven food outlets to choose from and they serve dishes good for sharing, so dare to be adventurous and try one (or two!) from each outlet.

If you’re a true coffee connoisseur, this place is for you. Cafe Yagam boasts of carrying the best Arabica coffee in the Philippines. They source their coffee beans from Cordillera Green Network which is an environmental non-profit organization. Aside from being able to taste good coffee, you’re also sure that you’re supporting a good cause.

You might get a bit confused when you arrive at Arca’s Yard. Is it a cafe? A museum? A library? Well, it’s all of those things because it’s owned by an artist. They serve coffee, desserts, and full meals too. The best thing about it is every corner demands to be photographed, so you better get your photography game on.

Perhaps one of the newest in the game of Instagrammable restaurants is Baguio Craft Brewery. The most picturesque spot would have to be the bar where you can see 18 rotating taps of freshly brewed beer. It’s actually the only place in Baguio that specializes in craft beer so the whole gastronomic experience is unique.

Without a doubt the best hot chocolate in Baguio (if not in the Philippines). The place is a small garden cafe within the grounds of Camp John Hay, so your pets are allowed. The perfect shot would have to be you drinking the cup of hot choco with the cafe as your background.

If you’re craving for Japanese food, Chaya is your go-to resto. Don’t let the the house exterior fool you, this restaurant serves authentic Japanese food using the best of Baguio’s ingredients and the best of Japan’s ingredients. In short, you get the best of both world at an affordable price. The homey vibe of the place makes the whole experience memorable.

This restaurant is a refreshing break from all the Filipino and breakfast restaurants that seems to be overpowering the food industry in Baguio. We love that their interiors is a bit shabby chic and literally, every corner screams eclectic and laid back. Outside you’ll see a vegetable garden and a stunning view of the mountains.
