When you hear the words Bonifacio Global City, the first thing that springs to mind might be High Street and all the restaurants that dot the area. What might not spring to mind is the possibility that you can spend Php 300 and get great food at the same time.
While a typical night out here might cost upwards of Php 500, there are places you can check out that serve pretty awesome food, and let you enjoy without breaking the bank.

You’ve seen Grease, right? No? Okay, Pops’ Diner from Archie? What manner of fun-hating hermit are you? This restaurant offers the ambiance of a typical diner along with local cuisine. They also happen to serve breakfast all day, and plenty of other delicious dishes.
What to get: For the ones who want a slightly healthy option, the Grilled Chicken Caesar Sandwich can be your go-to for Php280. It’s a little over budget at Php305, but the meat lover will definitely enjoy the Breakfast for Titans.

Speaking of meat lovers, you can head on over to The Farm in Burgos Circle for burgers and steaks. The Farm boasts all-natural and organic beef for their burgers. For the not-so-ravenous, they also have a variety of pasta dishes, salads, and soups in their selection.
What to get: You can get a lot of their all-natural burgers starting at Php140, and maxing out at Php300. The Double Cheeseburger at The Farm is apparently to die for, and so is their Tomato Soup, priced at a moderate Php120.

Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf? You shouldn’t be, especially if you want comfort food and a little southern comfort at the same time (by which we mean booze). This restaurant and bar-cum-art space is great for chilling out as well.
What to get: Rice meals here are all priced at Php235, and you get to choose from a variety of rice – mushroom fried, bell peppers, or garlic. If you don’t feel like having rice, you can try their bar food, soups, and salads.

Recovery Food is famous for a lot of things, one of which is being open 24/7.

One other thing they’re famous for? Affordable all-day breakfast food!
What to get: Meals here come in regular or Full Recovery (read: huge). Their specialty is called “Tapa de Morning”, and a Full Recovery-sized version of this meal costs Php260. They also have sandwiches and salads for those quick food runs.

Like Big Bad Wolf, Uncle Cheffy doubles as both bar and restaurant. The difference is that their dish selection is much wider and includes more than a few twists on local cuisine. Stuff off the menu comes in Junior and Medium size, just to give you an idea of the portions.
What to get: The Lamb Breast Provençale Way is Php110/100g and comes with a salad, and potatoes. It’s basically meat, veggies, and a little starch to get you going through a day of shopping.

If you’ve had your fill of international cuisine, you can hit Fifteen Twenty One for some new-style takes on classic Pinoy dishes. Even better, a great many of these dishes are made for sharing – and the names are kind of witty.
What to get: The prices are for sharing, but at Php295, the Bonggang-Bonggang Binagoongan is a great choice.
