If you are looking for a new place to hang out with some spectacular views, well, this should be one on the top of your list. Our first attempt visiting here was aborted since the queue then was quite long but now that we came back just as we are slowly starting to open the economy again (due to the pandemic), we were successful to go inside enduring only a short line.

The Art sector and chimney cafe 360 blew up on social media pre-pandemic because of their Instagrammable places, and they surely delivered. They are located in a prime spot within the Binangonan Rizal area inside the Eastridge executive village. It took us an hour and a few minutes to arrive there coming from Marikina. The area is really beautiful as you go higher before reaching the ridge and you will be able to already enjoy the overlooking view even before going inside the establishment.
There is an entrance fee of P200 per head since it is considered an art gallery aside from being a cafe itself. The ordering area will be welcoming you from the entrance so be ready to place them as you enter the main dining place of the cafe which is very pleasing to the eyes. They serve some appetizers, full rice meals, salads, drinks like coffee & milk tea, and some cake desserts.Â

We visited on a weekend so I assume what we experienced was near to a full house.
While waiting for the food, we roamed around the place and there were a lot of great spots to capture. They got a lot of dining area options which are the following but not limited to the ones featured below:
elevated floor window seats |
couch dining |
While wandering around, don't miss to check out the art pieces hanging on the walls as you paid for them too! I personally categorize them under abstract and minimalist just like the theme of the whole place. They are very neat to look at and let you imagine things yourself which is both interactive and creative in a way.

Even their restroom is not exempted to be in its own form. #teamcement

My favorite space would be this outdoor dining area with an overlooking background. Since they are located in a ridge, the sceneries are solid. You can select a view from nature like greenies, rolling hills, and a lake to even some urban residential areas and towering buildings which light up at night.

I suggest going here before/during sunset and staying until the night to see both the superb sceneries. We arrived here at noontime since that is the only time available with my family so the upper areas are vacant because it is still hot. But if you want to solo these spaces too, feel free to visit lunchtime as well, besides, the grand views won't go anywhere.

But wait, there's more! They even have this chimney rooftop where you can enjoy a 360° view of the area. It is a floor higher than the roof deck which is super cool to see. This is where doing those IG-worthy shoots must be done. Ganda!

Now back to the dining area. They are implementing the self-serve service inside the establishment so don't expect your orders to be delivered to your table. They'll provide you with a beeping/signaling device that will light and sound up when the food is ready just like the one in the photo below.
So after a few minutes, our food was ready. We got it from their preparation area AND don't forget to get your utensils and other condiments (if applicable), you can freely get them there which we forgot. We were a group of 4 so we ordered what is in the table (photo below).
dig in! |
For the food, everything tasted great. The only improvement I can suggest is that the serving sizes should be bigger especially for the meals. Aside from that, they were all pretty nice and tasty. You will just feel wanting more but that may just be me. lol! #takaw Besides, you can order more if you want to.

All in all, the experience was a good one. Their location is really the gold here where the views are just a must-see. Looking at the art pieces can serve as entertainment while waiting for the food or if not, just go to the rooftop and enjoy those breathtaking views.
There are a lot of other spots that are Instagrammable and I will rest them all up to you to find out in person.Â

ReplyDeleteOne thing that brought good about this pandemic is we all learned to work around it.. since last year I have been seeing a lot of awesome new places that were not there before.. a lot of developments pushed through, people had time to make their properties evwn more potentially profitable.. which is definitely a good thing!

ReplyDeleteI love the minimalist design of that restaurant and the views are spectacular! I am an art lover so I would enjoy the art too!
ReplyDeleteFor both art and food lovers this place is gold. Also, the view looks lovely. And I agree with you, at sunset and at night these kind of places are the best!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an interesting idea. Get your art, food and Instagrammable shots all under one roof. The design of the place is really interesting with nice clean lines. So cool!
ReplyDeleteThe place really does look classy and neat. I like the concept, it's a unique one.
