Food Scene
Owned by a UP alum, this is comfort food at its finest! If you have a sweet tooth, you will love their selection of pies and cakes (signature pie: Banoffee Pie). Food is reasonably priced. Parking is a bit of a challenge, though, so we recommend you just walk and get a chance to stretch those legs. Besides, C-5 is an exciting challenge if you're not used to crazy Manila motorists!

McCafé serves great brewed coffee and some specialty options for cheap prices. Food to go is a treat in this branch because it doesn't get as crazy-packed as other branches. Walking distance from our unit makes it an easy go-to option.

Beer is cheap and it comes with the usual pulutan or pika-pika (sisig, gambas, and the like). Fresh air, spacious, relaxing atmosphere... this is for you!

Entertainment & Activities
This is a small, cosy nook for indie acts around the metropolis. Popular, mainstream bands and artists have all performed here. Free drinks come with the entrance fee. Support local! This is close to the unit and is worth the trek.

Everything Else
Decent, clean massage that is open until 1 AM! On the pricey side but worth it as it comes with the option to take a shower after a day's worth of activities in muggy Manila and their choices of essential oils add a touch of spice and elan.

It's the heart of the thug life in Project 4!
Drinks & Nightlife
This has been around since I was in college in the early 1990s and it never grows old... grab a beer with friends... dinner is okay if you're not too choosy... only downside is how horrible traffic gets when too many cars come and park...

Parks & Nature
Lots of acacia trees, a momol forest, and disappearing open fields... enjoy the campus before capitalism completes the win with all the buildings sprouting all over the campus grounds.

Shopping
One stop shop that has most everything you need (basics). Not for the fashion and brand conscious... it's hip shopping with jeje clientele.
