As the Christmas season settles over Cebu, warm lights and festive flavors begin to shape the daily rhythm of many local cafés. At Pollitos Café & Restaurant in the City of Naga, that rhythm takes the form of freshly brewed coffee, comforting meals, and the gentle hum of holiday conversations—a combination that has quietly made the café a beloved stopover for both locals and travelers.
Located inside Eugenia Square along N. Bacalso South National Highway, Pollitos has become known for offering a space where guests can slow down from the rush of the season. Mornings typically begin with a stream of early patrons seeking a blend of calm and caffeine. The café’s signature latte, crafted with smooth, balanced notes, remains a favorite among regulars. Paired with a flaky pastry from their in-house selection, the drink sets the tone for unhurried, reflective moments.
Beyond coffee, Pollitos leans into the season with a menu that emphasizes warmth and familiarity. Diners can choose from a variety of hearty comfort dishes, each prepared with the café’s hallmark home-style touch. Festive flavors also play a role: the café’s Thirst Quencher Fruit Milkshakes—available in Ube, Mango, Vanilla, and Caramel—offer a refreshing counterpoint to the tropical December heat, especially when paired with Pollitos’ classic burgers inspired by global cuisines.
Throughout the day, families, groups of friends, and travelers on their way to South Cebu come and go, drawn by the café’s accessible location and relaxed atmosphere. The staff notes that the holiday season tends to bring in more visitors seeking a quick meal, a cozy table, or simply a place to unwind amid holiday errands and road trips.
Yet what sets Pollitos apart is not just its offerings but the feeling it aims to create: a space where guests can take comfort—however briefly—in good food, warm drinks, and the company of people they care about.
Pollitos Café & Restaurant is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. For reservations and inquiries, customers may contact 0919 334 0604.
This Christmas, as the City of Naga lights up with festive cheer, Pollitos remains a small but inviting reminder of what the season is about: gathering, savoring, and finding moments of gratitude in between the busiest days.
