The place is so homey and the design is amazing! The food and coffee is also great! You wouldn't expect the food in a cafe to be this good! The people are also amazing, they're very friendly, kind and accommodating! Will be here often!

TGC is my go-to place for breakfast. The location is near condos in Boni literally walking distance.
Food: I haven’t tried a lot of their offerings but so far I really love their Pancit. They are very generous in terms of serving size. I love their breakfast meals too and I always crave for their Fried Bangus. :) I’ve tried some of their pastas before - nothing special but they are not bad. The only bad thing I could say is that every time I order breakfast meals which it comes with an espresso, they always serve my coffee late. Or is it just me that I like eating my breakfast and have my coffee ready for a sip.
Price: For all the food I’ve mentioned (those are usually what I order), I feel that the price is just right. However, the reason why I haven’t tried some other food (viand) in their menu is I think they are too pricey. So, I always settle to the usual food I order every time. :)
Ambiance: The place is strategic for me since it’s very near my place. But the fact that it’s not in a busy area and the place still gets full all the time, it means people are coming back because of their food. The place is cozy and homy.
You don't really expect a good place like that on their location. But it's perfect! The place looks so pretty, pretty like good for IG pictures. The food is delicious! Sisig is so good, the lemon chicken too. Serving is better than what we expected
Everything is delicious! Their turon & pansit is a must try. Ambiance is great. Definitely worth the price.
I’ve been eyeing this cafe for quite a while now, so I’m happy that I finally got to try it and was not disappointed.
All of the food we ordered were good. 😊 I will definitely come back to try more of their food. The only thing I didn’t like was the fact that the serving time took soooo long. We were so hungry by the time the food arrived. It was really a good thing that the food was great. Otherwise I would not have enjoyed my stay. I hope the next time I’ll come back, their service will be better 😊
Food is consistently great here but my favorites are Cheese Sticks and TGC House Special Pancit. I've heard from friends that their coffee offerings are also good but I'm not a coffee person so I cannot really vouch for that.
I noticed though in some of my visits during lunch time that service had a tendency to be quite lacking -- less attentive, not accommodating attitude when asking requests. Not all the time naman but I hope good service would be more consistent in the future.
Enjoyed eating at TGC. It has a small cozy place which I find okay. I am also loving their restaurant theme. They also offer some boardgames.
The food we had was tasty. We had their lechon macau & buttered chicken. The flavors mixes well in your mouth. We also tried their drinks and cake! Iced latte and cheesecake. Also some finger foods like cheese sticks and nachos. All are amazing!
We will def come back, AGAIN! :)

Went finally to eat in this place. TGC came into my attention everytime I travel from Kapitolyo to Boni. I’m always curious of this place from a distance since it looks very comforting. Interestingly, when I heard of Henry and Sons for the first time, I got enchanted from the selection of coffee beans they offer. Curiously, TGC was like a hub for my coffee supply. My all time favorite, Premium Roast Arabica, is never out of stock. Just across the streer you’ll find the “Manila Coffee Gear”, a supplier of wide range of coffee machineries and all sorts pf devices involving coffee.
You can imagine that I’m only acquainted with TGC by being a frequent purchaser of coffee beans. At last I’m able to invite, as usual my boss, and two of my staff. I was quite worried because right off the bat, the place is bustling with many patrons. It’ll be indeed a busy trek. Either way we went in and placed our orders to finally eat lunch. We’ve ordered rice toppings such as lechon macau, salt and pepper spareribs, buttered chicken, then a lone order of their recommended pancit, crab and corn soup, timpladong puti for my boss and a flat white for me.
I’m going to go straightforward here. The place is really good. It has this “homey” vibe, which is why I said earlier that from the outside view it looks comforting. The food are quite okay. The pancit took the crown. It was really good. The staff are really accommodating and attentive but the cooking service is a let down. It took around 30 minutes (or even more) for all of our food to be completed. Even though a restaurant is jampacked, having your customer wait for half an hour is a big minus point.
I still wanted visit this place again. Hope they could improve their kitchen’s efficiency. I can see the potential, no wonder there are loads of patrons around. For now though I’m going to settle for a 3 out of 5.
Coffee is 10 stars! Food and ambiance is also good! Clean CR is also a plus. Wifi is not that good sometimes but if you are there to catch up with friends and have meetings then this would not be a problem. I could definitely stay all day! :-)
Cons:
(1) Billing out and (2) serving time takes more than 30 minutes. (3) Limited parking. Below 3 slots only.
We would recommend you pay as you order to avoid #1 especially if you are in a hurry.
Pancit
I have to admit that this cafe really outdid itself since I literally went into a food coma. Even though I was full, I still wanted to eat more. To top that the place was very comfortable and the service was great with their polite staff.
