Food was pricey but still good. Went there already late. It has a nice view of the city lights. The staff taking the orders was kind of impatient as what we observed or she's just tired haha. Worth the visit still.

The 360 view was very nice. The food is pricey however it is very good. Their breaded porkchop is so good but their sisig is just so-so. The place is clean. We arrived there 7AM. It’s just a good 15-20 minute ride from Ayala.

My go-to Sunday morning coffee! If you do early morning runs/bike to Busay, this café opens at 6:00AM! They have everything: view, food, coffee, and vibe. If you want to the view before you descend back to the City, this is the best place to chill!
