We recently wrote an article about different Sagada restaurants that we had tried; but according to a few netizens, the 8 restaurants in this article are the ones that we should have tried. Suffice to say: these restaurants are now on our list for our next visit!
7 Restaurants and Cafes You Should Try in Sagada
7. Gaia Cafe and Crafts
According to netizen Appaul Ponciano, Sagada is not only where broken hearts go; it’s a food haven, too. Although Gaia is touted to be a vegan and vegetarian restaurant, the food is so good that even people who love meat will appreciate it and maybe even love it. Appaul says, “Gaia is a must-try in Sagada. It’s a little far from the tourism office, but it’s worth it. Promise!”

The best part is that they have an amazing view to boast of! Plus, they have a crafts shop where they sell home-made food products, woven items, Igorot publications and even all-natural skincare products.

You may even book a horse near Kiltepan and ride around town after hitting Misty Lodge’s cafe if you want. Apparently, some of the horses stop by Misty Lodge, so you can get a glimpse of them before deciding if you want to horseback-ride or not.

5. Sagada Brew
While Sagada Brew is a restaurant with delicious savoury food and coffee, most people flock to the place for their delicious desserts. So, if you have a sweet tooth, this is the place to go in Sagada. Inz says their lava cake is a must-try, while others have also mentioned their salted caramel cake.
