Owners bring their traditional take on New York Style Pizza. The menu features loaded JUMBO slices of pizza like the CARNIVORE; piled high with Zesty Pepperoni, Italian Sausage and Parma Ham. Take a break from the heat with a cold beer and an air-conditioned interior. Or chill on the outdoor patio with a refreshing cocktail and a game of pool on their professional billiard table.

One of the worst pizza I had in my life

Feb 2023 • none

Not even a pizza really. Base was like an under cooked hunk of white dough that took way to much effort to chew because it was so under cooked. Tasteless tomato and cheese and yeah you have you have the classic endpoint of the world's worst pizza when it hits its all time low - chewing flavorless cardboard. I was absolutely starving when I got it and it cost 570 peso which is absurd but I did did even finish 2 out of the 8 slices. The rest went in the bin.

Thank you for your comment we appreciate honest feedback however in your case it was far from honest. There was no complaint registered with the staff. We have excellent reviews on the quality of our food. I did notice in your reviews of other establishments you seem to only have negative comments of every establishments you comment on. You are more than welcome to speak to me personally to address your concerns.

Great Vibes and good people

Jan 2020 • none

Went to the Reef for a few drinks and some food. When I got there everyone working there where very friendly. I had one of the pizzas there and it was delicious. I played a few games of pool I ended up talking to everyone there. All the customers where very friendly and knowledgable about the area. Ended up having a few more nights there, I highly recommend everyone visit here to gain a few friends and some great travel advice.

BEST pizza I have had in 10+ years

Oct 2020 • none

By far the BEST pizza I have had in 10+ years in 3-4 countries. Good fun, outdoor seating under cover, pool table, bar, music, and good time with good people with a friendly staff

Decent chill out spot

Nov 2019 • friends

I think one of my favourite things about this place Is that it's not playing the generic music every other place likes to blast (talking about you, Alona beach). Good pizza, friendly staff, pool table, comfortable atmosphere, what more could you want? Keep up the good work guys 👌

This is the best thing we've read in months! Thanks for the awesome review 👍 We love our 90's music, and classic hip-hop. We try to stay away from all things generic 😄, including GENERIC PIZZA! Cheers!

My husband and I were staying in Panglao for a few days after our visit in Manila. we saw this place and thought it looked great plus it had pizza. The food was very tasty and the place was very clean considering it was a outside place. You can tell this place gets super busy during tourist season.

Just terrible. I don’t wanna go there anymore. I wasted my money and didn’t enjoy the pizza. Very lonely atmosphere too.

Fun hangout

During our stay at Malinawon resort we found this fun bar just around the corner. Lots of fun moments with the people there. You SHOULD stop for a cold beer and a pizza..

Amazingly Cool Little Joint on Panglao Island for Expats & Locals

Oct 2018 • friends

Full disclosure: This is my good buddy's bar who is permanently indebted to me. With that said, I am an avid traveler of 60+ countries so I will not deceive my fellow globe trotters. Andy's bar is great. Cool music, good staff and Andy is awesome - we used to live together in college in the US. He is pouring his heart and soul into making this bar something of a gem for now and for the future. Myself and my girlfriend stayed at Andy's condo down the street and went to this bar I think everyday. The pizza is amazing and I lived in New Jersey. There are adorable cats and dogs hanging around the bar that they have adopted that if you like pets you will love. Andy parties hard and so does his co-owner. There is an indoor very air conditioned area with bar seating and an outdoor area with some fans about. There is a pool table outside and a great dart board inside. There are little shops dotting the road to both sides if you need to grab smokes or water or snack. The bar also has smokes and water and a great supply of alcohol at a good price. THERE IS GREAT WIFI HERE. There is a private bathroom that locks that is the cleanest I have seen outside of the Marriott in Manilla and they have bug spray for sale if the sketters begin to attack. It is a very cool and chill place that lets you either drink alone, bring a group or join another group if need be. This place is a must in the area. Do not miss it.
