For pet lovers, there's nothing more rewarding than spending quality time with their beloved furbabies, and now, mealtime can be a part of the fun too at SM Supermalls! Gone are the days of choosing between a delicious meal and the company of your pet. At SM City Manila, fur parents can now savor great food while bringing along their fur babies for fun food outings. Here are six pet-friendly dining spots where you can munch on good food with your furbaby by your side.
A household name in Filipino cuisine, Max’s Restaurant continues to win hearts with its timeless curation of dishes. For starters, their refreshing and crunchy Lumpiang Ubod is sure to delight your palate with its blend of shredded heart of palm (ubod), vegetables, pork, shrimp, and crabmeat. The savory filling is wrapped in a delicate crepe and served either fresh or fried for a deliciously satisfying treat.
Their All-Beef Kare Kare is also a crowd pleaser with its sumptuous serving of tender beef cuts such as chunks, oxtail, and tripe, slow-cooked in a luscious, thick peanut sauce. It's typically paired with a medley of vegetables such as eggplant, string beans, and banana blossoms, and served with Max’s signature sautéed bagoong (shrimp paste) on the side. With pet-friendly seating, Max’s Restaurant is the perfect place for a hearty family meal where even your pup or feline friends get to tag along for fun.
If you're into smoky goodness and chill vibes, Scorched Smokehouse is a top pick. Known for its American-style smoked meats, this Filipino restaurant chain features a mouthwatering selection of pork ribs, USDA beef, pulled pork, and chicken. Their meats are slow-smoked for up to 12 hours using imported hickory wood chips, hence their exceptionally tender and flavorful dishes. Try their overload meals that include combos such as creamy and savory white pasta, smoked meat, java rice, and a dessert bar. The fan-favorite Scorched Iced Mocha is also a must-try, a perfect sip to shrug off the heat of Manila’s warm afternoons while chilling with your furbaby.
At MESA, traditional Filipino cuisine is given a contemporary twist. Their signature Pinatayong Manok is renowned for its creative presentation, featuring a whole chicken that is marinated, boiled, and deep-fried until golden brown. This succulent dish is presented in an upright position at your table, which makes for an eye-catching centerpiece. Aside from its visual appeal, it’s a popular choice among diners for its crispy skin and tender meat, along with their flavorful Tinapa Rice, which adds a smoky flair to every meal. MESA welcomes pet parents to dine in style and comfort with its cozy ambiance and delectable dish offerings that are sure to delight diners and their pets alike.
Enjoy a nostalgic dining experience that blends tradition and comfort at Classic Savory. This cherished Filipino restaurant chain is known for its signature fried chicken and diverse selection of Filipino-Chinese dishes. Crowd-pleasers include the tender and juicy Classic Savory Chicken, crispy Shanghai Rolls, and a hearty serving of Fried Rice. For dessert or a refreshing drink, their Iced Coffee Jelly and Savory Tropical Cooler offer the perfect sweet touch. As a pet-friendly space, Classic Savory makes it easy for you to enjoy their delicious dishes without leaving your furry friends behind.
Craving Thai cuisine with a modern twist? Khao Khai Thai Chicken House brings the bold, Bangkok street-style flavors to Manila with its famous authentic Isan (Northeastern Thai) cuisine, comforting rice meals, and vibrant atmosphere. Its signature Gai Tod (Thai Fried Chicken) is a cult favorite and is celebrated for its crispiness and juiciness inside out. For a more authentic Thai street food experience, pair the Gai Tod with the tangy Som Tam (papaya salad) and cool off with the beloved sweet and creamy Thai Milk Tea. Khao Khai welcomes your furry companions while you dig into their flavorful dishes.
Wrap up your foodie bonding session with your pets with a cool and classic treat from Bebang Halo Halo. Known for its unique flavors and generous servings, their version of the beloved Filipino dessert is perfect for sharing (or not!). Its crowd favorite is the Presidential Halo Halo, which offers a delightful mix of premium ingredients such as leche flan, sago (tapioca pearls), ube halaya, sweet corn, and more. What makes this stand out among other desserts is its frozen milk base, which provides a creamier texture compared to traditional shaved ice. Bebang offers you a sweet escape on hot days with its rich, creamy, and innovative takes on the classic summer cooler.
