Farnecio Eatery in Manila: worth a stop in 2026?

fmd_goodFarnecio Eatery · #eatery #manila #meal
I'm visiting Manila in March 2026 and keep seeing Farnecio Eatery mentioned for cheap local eats. What's good there, and roughly what should I expect to pay for a meal?

Went on a weekday lunch and the line was mostly office workers, so go before noon or after one. Their longganisa with garlic rice is the better order if you want something beyond the usual silog. Cash only, and the seating upstairs is cramped but quieter.

Good call on the timing. The upstairs is quieter but the stairs are steep, so watch your step after a big rice meal. Cash only is real, no card or GCash there.

Agree on the timing, but bring small bills since they rarely have change for a 500.

Bring a 100 and some coins, they never have change

Tapsilog, around 80 to 120 pesos.

That price range sounds about right, though I'd budget closer to 120 if you're adding a drink or extra rice.

Longganisa instead, closer to 110.

Only if you get there before 11.

Fair price, and no GCash either.

Ask for the exact street address and check it on Google Maps street view before sending anything.
