We went here on a recommendation from our Airbnb host. The views were amazing but just keep in mind…read morethat they have two spots, one right in front of the water and one just across the street. The location right by the beach has great views but very little coverage from the sun and it's very hot. The other location is more shaded at the top level and might be more comfortable. The food was pretty good but if you're looking for a western breakfast it won't be exactly that so manage your expectations. Still, the service was great and we enjoyed our time there

Among all the restaurants in the "mini mall", Gypsy's Lair Art Cafe stands out because of its unique architectural design; the artsy and bright decor is inviting and interesting. :) The cafe is a bit off from the main road in Puerto Princesa. So, it is quite far from the other well-known restaurants. But, it is worth going to. Once you enter the place, you'll see many quirky artworks all over the walls, stairs...everywhere! Although my friend and I only stayed for dinner and a few drinks, this would be a good place to chill out either alone or with friends. The food did not disappointment. They have a variety of food to choose from. So, we asked the waiter for his recommendations. We tried their best-seller, the Ribs, which were very tender and the serving was enough for 2 people. Other dishes we tried were the Chicken Burrito (served fresh with salsa verde), Pin-Thai (the pinoy version of Pad Thai) and Tom Yum Soup (just the right amount of spicyness and sweetness, I finished that all by myself). Try their Pandan shake and Guyabano shake! Great way to quench your thirst on a hot day. :) Overall, this is really a great place to dine and watch the minutes go by. Nice upbeat music, good menu options and quick service are the highlights. It's a cozy place and one of the places you must visit in Puerto Princesa! :)

We had the fried fish sandwich, green curry, and a ground beef dish I don't remember the name of. All were complex, flavorful, and well balanced.

The atmosphere is similar to a Starbucks or other American chain or even a Bo's, but with their signature Palawan flair. The drink selection is great, fulfilling your coffee needs as well as other sweet drinks. The coffee is definitely not powdered coffee but true strong brewed espresso based drinks. I found that ordering their Americano with their black velvet cake made the experience more fulfilling! Wifi available. CR available. Mangaon ta!

Theres plenty of seating and wifi inside. The airconditioning works well which made it feel nice. Some back round music to help past the time. The coffee was good. I ordered the americano which came out strong and black and hot. I also ordereda rasberry muffin which was way to hard like it was cooked the previous night or 2 ago, wasent good at all. They had other pastries and hot food as well on their menu and plenty of coffee and noncoffee drinks on the menu as well. Overall its a good place to sit, catch up on emails or waste some time if you get to the airport too early. The vibe too was soothing, with coffee aromas in the air, and the chill music in the background.
