Char’s Garden Café

In a phrase: “Romantic ambience!” Nothing typical or ordinary about it. This location is tranquil, airy, and modest in the best possible ways. Like eating at a friend’s house down the street, only better. The quality of the cuisine is exceptional, and for what you pay. To put it simply, it’s very affordable. Breakfast is available continuously throughout the day. There is also a selection of local specialties. You must sample their bagnet and their take on bulalo. This is the greatest location to go if you’re looking for serenity, delicious meals, and attentive staff. You’ll have a unique, out-of-the-way meal. To sum up, Char’s Garden Café was a well-kept secret gem until now, but you should definitely include it to your itinerary #WhenInTagaytay.

Concha’s Garden Café

There is no doubt that Concha’s Garden Café was designed with your enjoyment in mind. It’s the perfect spot for a morning date over breakfast. Location is ideal because, if you get there early enough, you can pick the exact place where you will have the best view. The vista of Taal from cliff house is stunning. There’s a choice of pleasant settings, both indoors and out. The staff is helpful, pleasant, and accommodating; thus, the service is excellent. And of course, dishes are scrumptious! Do not leave Tagaytay without trying the sisig, lumpiang hubad, and crispy pata at Concha’s Garden Café. Concha’s is a fantastic restaurant, and not just because of the owner, Mr. Alden Richards, and the publicity he generates for his business. Concha’s plating is really enticing– it would make you want to eat more than your stomach can bear.

There are a variety of eateries in Tagaytay that provide visitors with an exciting change of pace from their regular lives. Greenhouse Café Tagaytay is a great place to take a break from work if you’re a plantita who also enjoys good food. The Greenhouse Café Tagaytay boasts the distinction of being the first of its kind in Tagaytay, a place where visitors can dine in a tranquil setting while shopping for exotic plants. Very refreshing! And above all, food is great! The Bacon Cheese Croquette, Laksa Lemak Soup, and the Mushroom Truffle Pasta are all excellent what we recommend of the restaurant’s cuisine. Pinoy Turon and Sinfully Belgian Chocolate Cake are also available as sweet endings to your meal. To wash it down, try one of their cold coffees, juices, or shakes, but if you need something hot to combat the chill of Tagaytay, they have those, too. If you need a relaxing break from the crowds of the Metro, don’t think twice and head to Greenhouse Café.
