"This restaurant/cafe is wonderful! The food was delicious—we ordered the chili shrimp, kari-kari (curry), and wedged potatoes. The potatoes needed some salt but other than that, everything was flavorful. It was also a great cocktail happy hour (buy 1, take 1) so we tried the mojito. The view is perfect and the waitstaff was very attentive! There were also vegan options on the menu. Overall, great experience. I’ll be back to try the coffee next time."

"Good breakfast spot on Lio Beach! Great place to get some breakfast and coffee right by the beach. I highly recommend the omelet. It’s delicious and comes with fresh watermelon, pineapple, and toast. The view is amazing and the vibe is very chill. A perfect way to start the day in El Nido!"

"The shop looks new and very clean. I really love their coffee—hands down the best coffee in town. The food is super affordable, especially the paninis. I tried the kesong puti panini and it was soooo good. The staff are very kind and easy to talk to. I’ll definitely be coming back!"

"Went here in the afternoon after knowing they serve halo-halo. I like how filling the dessert is; it can actually feed two people. Expect to wait for your food to be served. We’ve waited for about 15-20 minutes for an order of halo-halo. The cafe faces the beach so the vibe is chill and the atmosphere’s relaxed."

"I've only tried Liam's single burger but it was really good. Crispiest fries I've ever eaten my whole life lol a bit pricy of course but food is pricy anywhere in El Nido. What made me write a review is the service provided by one of their staff. Forgot to ask her name but she helped me with directions and was very courteous. Went above and beyond and I appreciate it. Thank you so much!"

"Absolutely loved their watermelon and mango shakes — both were super refreshing, naturally sweet, and perfect for the island heat! Sipping them while enjoying the stunning Lio Beach view made the experience even better."

"Great value for the cost ($16 all in for food/beverage) - burger and quesadillas were surprisingly good! Service is a bit slow, don't be in a rush. They could make more $$ as a biz if they focused on table turnovers more. @leoperezphotos"
