Alabang dining picks for every budget

If you live or work in the South, you know most plans stay within these few blocks. From quick weekday meals to dressed up dinners, everything is within reach.

If you’re planning to use your Pluxee Gifts, here’s where to go depending on your budget and vibe for the day.

PAYDAY TREATS

When sweldo hits, it’s time for something more satisfying than your usual order. Think bigger servings, extra sides, and no second thoughts about dessert. Go here when you want comfort food with meals that are easy to share or a proper sit-down lunch after a long week.

Festival Mall 
Craving something filling? Grab your Chinese favorites at Panda Express, go for Japanese comfort food at Botejyu, or split pizzas from Yellow Cab or Shakey’s* with the whole crew.

Alabang Town Center (ATC) 
8Cuts has you covered if you’re in the mood for burgers. You’ll also find Yellow Cab and Shakey’s* here for your chicken fix and comfort food favorites.

Asian Hospital area 
For something a little more laid-back or an easy payday lunch nearby Café France is great for fresh bread and pasta.

PETSA DE TIPID

Not every week calls for a splurge. On days with tighter budgets (i.e. payday eve), these are the places you can count on for something tipid yet filling and delicious. Head over when you want a quick lunch or take-out without overthinking the bill.

Festival Mall, Landmark, Madrigal
Order a classic Chickenjoy meal from Jollibee or enjoy Chinese go-tos at Chowking. You can also dig into unlimited rice and grilled chicken at Mang Inasal, or go for satisfying Japanese rice bowls at Yoshinoya when you need something filling.

Filinvest
Sit down to comforting Chinese dishes and dim sum at Super Bowl of China, perfect for family-style meals and group lunches.

SOMETHING FOR YOUR SWEET TOOTH

Sometimes, you just need a quick place to chill before heading home while giving yourself that much-needed sugar rush. These spots also work well for quick catchups, after meal sweets, or waiting out early evening traffic along Commerce Avenue or Alabang–Zapote Road.

Alabang Town Center (ATC)
Want a sweet pick-me-up? Grab a steaming cup of coffee from Toby’s Estate, fresh from the oven cookies at Mo Cookies, or a box of delicious donuts from Krispy Kreme.

Molito
Drop by Paper Moon for crêpe cakes in a variety of flavors or cool down with frozen yogurt from Yogorino.

READY FOR YOUR NEXT FOOD TRIP?

In Alabang, a “quick lunch” is never just lunch. It easily becomes coffee in Molito, a slow stroll through Alabang Town Center, or an early dinner to escape Filinvest traffic. That’s the South habit—everything familiar and easy to come back to.
