Are Great Shakes Prices Normal in Manila 2026?

fmd_goodGreat Shakes Corporation · #manila #prices #shake
I'm visiting Manila next month and saw Great Shakes Corporation online, where a shake is quoted around 180 pesos. Is that a normal price for a shake there in 2026, or should I expect to pay less?

180 is high, look for 100 to 130 near universities.

That range tracks with what I've seen around UST and Katipunan, though mall food courts push closer to 150.

Agree, though fruit shakes run nearer 90 at Taft stalls.

True around Ermita too, tourist spots charge extra.

Manila dating 2026: where do people actually meet?

fmd_goodFe-Bulous Canteen · #coffee
I'm moving to Manila later this year and trying to get a read on the dating scene before I land. Is it mostly apps, or do people still meet through friends and work? I keep hearing about casual coffee… I'm moving to Manila later this year and trying to get a read on the dating scene before I land. Is it mostly apps, or do people still meet through friends and work? I keep hearing about casual coffee spots like Fe-Bulous Canteen as low-pressure first date places, so curious how that usually goes.

Fe-Bulous works because it's cheap and you can bail after one coffee without it feeling like a failed date. I'd say apps get you the first meetup but friends-of-friends still carry most serious introductions, especially in Makati and BGC circles.

from what i've seen visiting, a lot of people meet through church groups & running clubs in bgc, plus the whole "mutual friend invites u to a birthday" thing. apps are big but the serious stuff often starts offline. idk, felt more organic than i expected

Birthday invites, yes. Running clubs less so, they skew expat.

Bar trivia nights and hobby groups around Quezon City tend to break the ice faster than apps ever will.
