Here are some food trip spots in Boracay that deserve a spot in your busy itinerary: 

1. Little Taj

Oftentimes, we find ourselves craving a quick bite or a refreshing drink when we’re at the beach. But if you’re after a flavorful culinary experience that will keep you coming back for more, Little Taj is the place to be! Beyond serving authentic Indian cuisine with generous portions packed with bold flavors, it’s a must-visit food destination that brings the vibrant spirit of India to the shores of Boracay.

The interiors are hip yet thoughtfully designed! It has the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to soak in the island’s youthful energy while sipping on their specialty cocktails.

When it comes to food, there was so much we genuinely loved! Among the Indian dishes we tried were the Pani Puri, Papdi Chaat, Lamb Biryani, Chicken Tikka Masala, Palak Paneer, and Garlic and Cheese Naan.

But the standout for us was the Stuffed Chicken Paratha—a crispy flatbread served with a rich Tikka Masala sauce. For just P300, you get a thick, incredibly filling dish with a generous chicken filling and perfectly cooked breading.

Muchos is a beachfront restaurant in Boracay that serves fun, fresh, and delicious Latin American dishes that reflect the island’s energetic and vibrant charm. The overall atmosphere is bright and laid-back, making it ideal for those looking to relax while enjoying the picturesque beach views.

We got to try some of the crowd favorites, including the Ceviche Clasico, Elote, Pao de Queijo, Arroz con Pollo, Gambas Quinotto, and Buñuelos. The star of the meal was definitely the Beef & Queso Birria Tacos, which were surprisingly light and perfectly balanced.

However, Muchos surprised us with their extensive drink selection, which includes unique cocktails, non-alcoholic refreshments, and caffeinated options. One must-try is their Homemade Mangonada, a delectable blend of fresh mangoes and Tamarindo & Tajín. Beyond its Instagram-worthy visuals, it offers a uniquely bold and refreshing twist on the usual mango-flavored drinks.

3. Nonie’s

For the tourists who want to opt for something more familiar to the Filipino palate, Nonie’s menu consists of comfort meals, as well as healthy and vegan options that are great for refueling after a long day of island adventures.

Among their comforting Filipino meals we tried were the tender and flavorful Chicken & Pork Adobo, which consists of grilled chicken and 72-hour crispy pork belly that is smothered with Cavite-style adobo sauce, a savory Bistek Tagalog that is served with a sweet potato mash, and a mouthwatering Fish & Prawn Curry that is equally hearty and healthy.

Moreover, they also offer guilt-free desserts perfect for those with a sweet tooth! Their Flourless Chocolate Cake is rich and decadent, yet surprisingly light, while their Strawberry Cashew Cake delights guests with its refreshing and creamy taste.

Indeed, it’s everything you need in a bowl. Guests can choose between two scoops of their plant-based Mango Coco Ice Cream or Black Rice Ice Cream (or just get one scoop of each). These creamy scoops complement the fresh mangoes, warm suman, salted coconut cream, and crunchy latik on top. It’s a sweet, tangy, and unforgettable combination of flavors you won’t find in the Metro.
