Old Baguio Heritage Cafe & Restaurant brings an authentic Cordillera food experience to Metro Manila

As it stands, Old Baguio Heritage Cafe and Restaurant is the only high-end dining facility in Metro Manila that offers a taste of the Cordilleras’ gastronomic and cultural heritage. This institution is one of the few to survive the pandemic lockdown when it originally opened in 2020. The café-resto, located on the second level of the Kalayaan Centerpointe Building on Kalayaan Avenue, corner V. Luna, Barangay Malaya, Diliman District, remained open despite the lengthy lockdown, thanks to its owners, who refused to let their cultural heritage fold just like that, thus demonstrating their ancestors’ spirit of resilience in how they handled this legacy.
Chef Wendy and Sir John developed this concept with a focus on responsible sourcing. They work directly with local farmers to ensure the freshest produce for Old Baguio Heritage Café and Restaurant. This approach not only guarantees high-quality food but also supports indigenous farmers in the Cordilleras.

The Café-Resto’s appeal is too obvious to ignore, since the owners emphasize their history. The resto-café is decorated in earthy colors, such as varnished and polished chairs and tables, and its Narra wood mini-bar.
The centerpiece divider, designed as a fireplace, is also one to behold.
